    Welcome! I was really sick for 8 years after my son was born. I'm really glad that you're finding answers pretty quickly.
  2. My church always has tea time after the service and people bring sweets, cookies, pies, cakes rice crackers etc. So far I just tuck a few gluten-free cookies in my purse and have my own thing. I'd like to get organized and start to bring stuff to share. I have two good jello recipies but would appreciate any suggestions or recipies. I'm racking my brain...
  3. I am the one with celiac disease and we eat simple old-fashioned gluten-free dinners, same food for the whole family. Tonight we're having augratin potatoes with ham and vegetable soup. Same goes for weekend family breakfasts but Hubby, Dad and son(8) get regular toast. Breakfast and lunch everyone has different needs and different schedules so have their...
  4. It's expensive but I take Rainbow Light Healthy Family Multivitamin Powder. It comes in a tub and has plant based ingredients as well as a full range of vitamins. No artificial color or added sweeteners, which is hard to find in kids vitamins. You adjust the number of scoops depending on if giving to kids or adults. It's easy on my tummy too. Their products...
  5. I substitute Bob's Red Mill All- Purpose flour, spoon for spoon in all my old white sauce recipies or other sauces that are made with the same method as a roux.
  6. I'm not familiar with casien free but my breakfasts are mostly lactose free. Here's what I usually eat. Hope it gives you some ideas. Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot cereal with raisins and cinnamon. Add brown sugar and milk(or substitute) after cooking. Gillian's raisin rolls(are dairy free) with Earthbalance Spread and slices of Hormel Naturals...
  7. I use the following seasoning mix on roasted chickens or potatoes. I mix it up in a jar so that I always have it on hand. Mix together equal parts paprika(we use sweet smoked spanish paprika), sugar, and salt. Add 1/4 part black pepper. You can use a little or a lot on chickens but a little goes a long way on potatoes. It has sugar in it so watch that...
  8. I made these over the weekend and they were great! By mistake I cut the corner of the bag a little too wide and after rising during baking my breadsticks looked more like small loaves. They needed a 20 min. bake. I discovered that they make great sandwiches. Just slice carefully through the middle and tuck in a slice of ham and a slice of provolone. I...
  9. The symptoms you list are enough to warrant a visit to the Dr. I am somewhat self diagnosed but I wouldn't necessarily recommend going about it that way. I've been reading Dr. Peter Green's book and he quoted a patient "I never felt well, and I never felt sick enough to see a doctor." This described me for many years. I had all the symptoms you listed...

    ARCHIVED Japan

    Wow, first time. I hope you have a wonderful experience. I'm excited for you. I love Japan and will never forget my first time or all the other times for that matter. Our coming trip will be my first time gluten-free so there are alot of unknowns but I'll let you know what I can. Japanese customer service is very good but like here, most people aren't...
  11. " looks ok, but i felt funny about tasting it, i took a bit on my fork, within 10 minutes i bloated right up.. so they took it back, and were going to give me a new dinner" Sorry to hear about that. They really should have offered a better replacement. It happened to me last weekend at a supposedly celiac friendly restaurant. Fortunately I had my husband...
  12. I had mine with a Sunshine Burger patty, mayo with a little sundried tomato pesto, and baby salad greens mixed with shredded raw coleslaw veggies and halved grape tomatoes. Does anyone know of a gluten-free salami?
  13. This is so true and well said. If only those in the medical profession got this.

    ARCHIVED Japan

    Konnichiwa, I'd be happy to help you. I'm planning to go for a month late spring/early summer so we've been doing our homework. Is this your first time? Can you speak Japanese? Are you pretty familiar with the cuisine and how it is prepared or what ingredients are used? I ask because some of the info I give might be different depending on your answer....
  15. I tried this bread this week and it was a success. It didn't rise above the top of the pan(I'll try a longer rising time next time). So, the slices were a little small for sandwiches, more like quick bread size. To get sandwich size slices, I cut it as follows. Cut the loaf in half vertically. Take each half and thinly trim off the top and bottom and...
  16. There is a reipie on the Pamela's website using her gluten-free pancake and baking mix. I tried it and it was very moist and spongy. I would omit the lemon if I made it again. I halfed the recipie to make a single layer. I would post a link but I don't know how to do that yet. Sorry. Originally I said that I halfed the recipie but after looking at...
  17. [quote name='misoman' date='Feb 5 2007, 07:52 PM' post='266538' P.S. - Missy'smom, that's a really cool pic! is it your hamster? Do you have a larger one anywhere? Thanks!
  18. Ursula said it well. Sometimes we have to make hard decisions when our mental and physical health is at stake. Without going into detail, let's just say that I understand some of what you are going through. I am also in a cross-cultural marriage. Fortunately, my husband's family is very good to me but if they were not, he would conduct himself very much...
  19. Welcome. Everyone has a little different genetic make up different and everyone comes to the table so to speak with different degrees of damage done and healing to be done. When I first started on this diet I heard about the bread crumbs and it was hard to imagine but the more I heal the more things I notice. Partly because I was so used to being sick...
  20. The Japanese use a "yam" flour that comes from a "potato" similar to taro root. They mix it with regular flour to make a savory pancake like dish. I'm not sure what it adds to the chemistry of the batter. As a "flour" it is fine textured. The yamaimo "potato" is naturally sticky. Just a bit of trivia.
  21. I've said that too. LOL
  22. This recipie was originally for blueberries but I substitute all other kinds of individual or mixed berries. If you want it seedless you can strain it after it is cooked. I use this on pancakes and usually 1/2 the recipie. 1/2 cup sugar 2 tsp. cornstarch 1/2 cup water 1 pint blueberries 1 tsp. lemon juice 1 tsp. grated lemon rind. Combine sugar...
  23. I'm eagerly anticipating it's release.
  24. I've done EXACTLY the same thing!
