Let's Hope I Can Be This Calm If It Ever Really Does Happen

[11475]

After months of looking for something suitable, I recently found rice pasta (no corn, no soy - hooray!). I was excited to see the same brand had a stall at the Gluten Free Food Expo I attended yesterday, and bought a packet of their spaghetti.

Well, apparently my sub-conscious is as excited about this new find as I am. I had a dream last night about going into my kitchen to find the packet of spaghetti on the bench...EMPTY! And strands left in the sink - wastage! Surprisingly, I didn't scream, 'WHO DARED TO EAT MY SPAGHETTI!!??', but calmly asked if they didn't have any of their regular spaghetti they could have cooked up instead.

I was very impressed at keeping my cool, even though, I know it was only a dream. Still...I decided it would be good to use this to my advantage and told my (gluten eating, but very supportive) partner all about it this morning...I think he is now suitably scared to eat my specialty foods and I won't have to buy a safe to keep it all in afterall

I went to a gluten-free expo yesterday, too. In KC. Ate way too many sweet treats. Yum but ugh!

That's pretty funny!

Lol... I've not had the dream, but did have it happen in real life! My dd and her friend made brownies from MY gluten-free brownie mix!

Oh no! Did they not realise? I feel very selfish sometimes when I have that initial thought, 'But that's 'MY' food!', but then sometimes you just can't help but think of the cost/lack of convenience in finding suitable foods right away and so on.

(Did you at least get to eat some of the brownies?)
