This site has periodically been posted here but just to remind: Open Original Shared Link There aren't a ton of them but there's an Outback not far from me and I want to visit it just to support them for having a gluten-free menu. PS how are they, never been there?

If you go to Outback, be prepared with elastic-band pants and some lipitor. I'm really glad it has a gluten-free menu, but it is definitely not the place to go for healthy eating! My boyfriend tells me he's always thought of it as a treat (not one I can have, though, because I can't digest red meat) rather than a default dinner option.

Well thanks for the warning. They do have salmon and grilled chicken but if you don't care for red meat the smell of it can be icky.

I also have the unfortunate disadvantage of despising salmon, and being unable to eat greasy/cheesy food. I think Outback and I just don't get along, which shouldn't influence anyone else's feelings about it!

Well now I know, if I dine there I WON'T run into you.

I read your happy news on the other thread. Congratulations! Have you picked out your dress and the location? Weddings are fuuunnn!

Ha! Right - if we ever dine together, we can go to Bonefish! Where I will not order salmon!

Thanks for the congratulations! We're going to get married in my parents' back yard. It's really beautiful - my dad loves gardening and has done a great job with it. I haven't picked a dress, but I probably won't go for the traditional white gown, because I don't like tight things (thanks for that bloating, celiac disease!), look pretty washed out in white, and we're getting married outside in Virginia in July, so I don't want to be sweating the whole time in something that doesn't breathe. We'll see! I did already line up a caterer who's thrilled to do a gluten-free wedding, so, yay! She doesn't do cakes, though, so hopefully some gluten-free cake tasting is in the future.

Oh that sounds beautiful. Not to mention the price is right. Keep me posted, okay, it'll be a special time for you planning it, and doing all the cake-tastings. Hey, you may need to do a LOT of research.

Definitely! Cakes are serious business, so multiple comparisons are only sensible!
