I Found My Cookbooks!

Hey everyone,

The saga of the missing cookbooks is finally over! :D

I haven't posted much in the last few months because, well, I didn't have much to talk about since I wasn't cooking.

After the move, it didn't matter what boxes I unpacked, I COULD NOT find ANY of my gluten-free cookbooks.

Today, in my toddler's room, I was unpacking his last box of books, and at the bottom of the box were my cookbooks! B) I was so excited I did a "white-girl" dance around the room! (sorry ya'll but I have no rhythm, and I definitely have no coordination). ;)

There's my update! Happy baking. -Julie

Yay ! I know you missed them, so glad they turned up !

When we moved years ago, I didn't take my toolbox along outside the moving van, and every day I didn't have that little box of stuff it drove me nearly crazy. We had to wait a month to take possession of the house but they allowed us to work on the fences before if we wanted to.... I had to strip off miles of old rusted barb wire, multiple strands, and I needed my fencing pliers, my big pliers, my needlenose pliers, and my little feminine sized leather palmed work gloves.

The moving van disgorged all the boxes into the storage facility here. Didn't find that stuff for a long time and it was in more than one box.... Now I've got multiples of each.

Thanks everyone :) I sure have missed cooking...even with the flops (dare I remind any of you of my flying pretzel incident?).

It was like Christmas w/o the expense! ...to replace the cookbooks would have cost over $100 (and one of them is out of print).

I am the one who packed the box :rolleyes::o I don't know what I was thinking! Of course, I may have been packing that evening with my one-year old clutching my leg and trying to cook dinner. I'm not the world's greatest multitasker. :ph34r:

Can't wait to start making the gluten-free spring rolls! Ahhh. It's good to be back! ;)

Julie

P.S. Takala, I totally understand...we now have about 30 packs of AA batteries. We went out and restocked for my son's toys and then found them! We have two of many things now. (Yard sale time again)! :)

      By nanny marley · Posted

      Hi I've been told I need a MRI on my bowels , I was booked for a colonoscopy, but because of my sever back issues and trapped nerve it can't be done , the nurse told me I will have to have a manitol drink a hour before the scan , I'm just a bit worried has I have issues with sweeteners like even a little,  I get a weird throat and ears and I've read it is a similar substance , not sure if anyone has had one of these scans or could give me some advise on the drink prep thanks in advance 😄

      Celiac attack confusion and anxiety

      By Colleen H · Posted

      Hi all ! Can a celiac attack be so intense that it causes your entire body to work in reverse? Meaning really bad pain,  neuropathy and muscle,  jaw pain,  the stomach issues , Horrible anxiety and confusion??  I had a Tums and you would think I ate poison. My jaw and stomach did not like it . Not the norm for me. Things that are simple are just out of control. Anyone ever have this happen??  I'm trying to figure out what I ate or did to bring on a celiac like attack. I had an idea before but yesterday I didn't have any gluten unless it was in a medication ?! Any positive suggestions ??  Thank you

      Gluten free stuff

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Gluten free stuff

      By trents · Posted

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.
