A Co-Worker Made Gluten Free Cookies!

A co-worker informed me she made some cookies. I told her my usual line "I can't eat cookies". She then told me she used coconut and rice flour! She is following a gluten free diet! I was SO HAPPY! It was so nice to be able to eat something a co-worker brought to share. Some people said they thought the cookies were a bit "grainy"...probably the rice flour...but I didn't complain at all and told her they were great! I informed my co-workers when you can't eat "real" cookies like me...you become less picky and enjoy what you CAN eat!

The cookies made my day!

Sounds great!!

Sometime later in conversation, you may want to suggest a baking mix with rice flour sit a few minutes to absorb the liquid. It makes it less grainy.

Nice, but beware of CC issues...

That is really amazing :-) Is she also diagnosed and 100% gluten-free? Now you can share lots of treats and not feel like the only one with "special" needs in the bunch!

I would think that cookies ARE real, just an alternate recipe to ones made with wheat no? :-) I'm happy for you!

      More great tips, and a good excuse to shop at M&S and also buy more iced buns!   I wish we had an ASDA near us, as the few times we've been to one their gluten-free pasta range seemed very reasonably priced compared to other shops.  Thanks so much, @Russ H.

      I hope you are on the mend soon. About 1 in 5 people who contracted chicken pox as a child go on to develop shingles in later life - it is not uncommon. There are 5 known members of the herpes virus family including chicken pox that commonly infect humans, and they all cause lifelong infections. The exact cause of viral reactivation as in the case of shingles or cold sores is not well understood, but stress, sunburn and radiotherapy treatment are known triggers. Some of the herpes viruses are implicated in triggering autoimmune diseases: Epstein-Barr virus is suspected of triggering multiple sclerosis and lupus, and there is a case where it is suspected of triggering coeliac disease. As to whether coeliac disease can increase the likelihood of viral reactivation, there have been several cohort studies including a large one in Sweden suggesting that coeliac disease is associated with a moderate increase in the likelihood of developing shingles in people over the age of 50.

      BFree bread is fortified with vitamins and minerals as is ASDA own-brand gluten-free bread. All the M&S bread seems to be fortified also.
