Mom Cooked Wheat..

[num1habsfan]

My mom just finished cooking the wheat for xmas (just for her and dad to eat, not even for the whole family haha) and she was bugging me if I want to taste some. I said ya sure, if you want to kill me At least I got a good laugh out of it...but it honestly smelled like s*** .

Now hopefully DURING xmas the rest of my family doesn't seriously ask me if I want any. I kinda hate it when it gets passed around the table with the bowls and well...I'm the only one with an empty bowl.

Anyone else not like seeing it??

Well my mom in that sense is extra careful, she doesn't want me to be near her table when she's cooking with flour because she's scared I might inhale some flour, but it does bother me when there's something that has gluten and that I know is really yummy and I can't have it, for example bread rolls that smell so wonderful and I have to sit and watch everyone eat them, I don't even bother taking my own bread because its not nearly as good and since i have o watch my carbs because of diabetes i would rather get my carbs from something other than gluten-free bread, but yeah I definitely miss the good bread.

I wouldnt know what the wheat salad tastes like because...I've never ate it and obviously am not about to now Just seeing alot of it kinda bugs me after awhile, especially if we celebrate both christmas-es

I so understand what you are saying!!! My MIL has been living us for just about 14 weeks... (can't wait for her to get her own place) and she just doesn't get it. I had Christmas dinner and snacks all planned out.. and she went and ordered a bunch of stuff that I cannot even eat!!! and I have to figure out where to put it all!! She ordered some kind of meat wrapped in philo dough, a ton of pastries (looks way to dry to me anyway) cheese cackes.. scones, and I just don't remember what else!! But needless to say I didn't put any of her stuff out, and my husband supported me... because we had already planned what WE were serving at our house, and she just can't over rule us!! She even opend on of the boxes of pastries in front of me and offered me some, and I said no thank you it will make me sick, she rolled her eyes, and said "oh I am sorry"

I think she is secretly trying to poison me hee hee... JK!!

LOL! I know what you mean. We had a big dinner at my Aunts on Christmas Eve. We had our own safe food, but there was lots of gluten food. My aunt made my favorite rolls from pre- gluten-free days, and she burned them! I just smiled a little because I felt better knowing I wouldn't be missing anything!
