I'm New Here, And How I Came To Be Here Is A Long Story.

Hi everyone!!

I'm not sure how this site works, but here's my story:

I am a nurse. I do not have celiac disease (or a food allergy). I have friends that do, and what I've experienced with my friends/patients is that it is a very difficult thing to deal with- the learning how to eat all over again to avoid some of the suffering that you guys have to deal with.

I'm trying to make the world a better place, one gluten free dessert at a time. Silly? Maybe. I'm a Southern girl, though, and we're always feeding everyone!

I created a recipe for gluten free lemon bars, and I was wondering if you all would take a look. Or better yet, make it and tell me what you think.

I'm also interested in what other desserts people like that may not be available without wheat based flours.

I have made it my mission to make gluten free stuff that actually tastes good.

I thank you so much in advance for your help, and I'm really excited to hear from you guys!!!

Well, it's not that I forgot, it's that I posted it with a link... Which as I found out today, is against the rules. So the link was deleted, and I am afraid to post the recipe for fear that Google will flag me for duplicate content, even though I don't think one can plagiarize their own work. Sighhhhhh.

I wish there were a way for me to do that little emoticon with its head banging on the wall. It's TOTALLY appropriate here.

It's okay to post a link to your own content, as long as it is on your profile page, not in the body of the forum. :)

Give that a try.

Thank you so much for helping me find a way around this. Since I'm still super new (and all my posts have to be viewed and approved by a moderator), I will do it first thing tomorrow if you can tell me how. I looked around on the profile page, but I'm unsure how best to proceed. You. Are. Awesome.

Hi!! As soon as I figure out how to post it on my profile, it'll be there. I'll let you know when that finally happens, and if you're still interested, I'd love it if you'd be so kind as to give it a whirl.

Ps- I love NC. Spent a lot of summers in Brevard as a child :)

      The Happy Tart review

      When my wife attempted to open the online card in the store with a cashier, it would not work. We then showed the owner the link to the card, the online receipt that I got upon purchase, and even my bank statement confirming the purchase. That did not satisfy her, since she said she needed the link to open to reveal the gift ID num. They even admitted they...

      Was the card itself lost or just the record or both?

      The Happy Tart review

      We were flabergasted that the owner would not acknowledge a $50 e-gift card I purchased for my celiac wife. My wife tried to open it in the store and was informed there had been a system change and they could not find the record. No worries, she was told, just talk to management. Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally...

      Ibuprofen

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can...

      Ibuprofen

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce. Something is making my pain so much worse I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs. Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever...

Six months later, and numerous absurd back and forths, and the owner literally informs me there have been "bad actors", so she can't make good on this lost gift card. In other words, she accused me of lying and committing fraud... over $50! Please be careful with your orders and purchases here.

      Yes, some people do get withdrawal from gluten but gluten withdrawal doesn't usually cause gut pain. Maybe more like general body aches and discomfort. We have articles on gluten withdrawal on this forum. You might do a search for them. Applesauce is very acidic and some brands have added vitamin C (ascorbic acid) which makes them more acidic. This can damage the stomach lining if you eat it too often. Especially if your stomach lining is already compromised. Ibuprofen inhibits the body's ability to rebuild the stomach's protective mucosal lining. That's why it can cause peptic ulcers. As strange as it may sound, low level irritation/inflammation stimulates the body to rebuild the stomach lining. There are two steps in this rebuilding process known as COX 1 and COX 2. Ibuprofen represses both COX 1 and COX 2. Celecoxcib, a prescription anti inflammatory, inhibits only COX 2, making it less likely to cause damage to the gut lining.

      Do you or anyone know alot about ibuprofen  I wasn't sure if I was eating too much apple sauce.   Something is making my pain so much worse  I'm referring to the intense pins and needles in my feet and lower legs.  Jaw actually has tardive dystonia and muscle spasms throughout my back Almost like an opposite effect that a pain reliever would do. I'm fairly new to this. Whatever is going on seems to be worsening  Do people get a withdrawal effect from gluten?  It's extremely painful 😖  I'll post that question or research on the site  Thank you everyone for responding
