    What is a muffin top pan? Do you think another type of pan could be used, or would they not turn out a proper shape? -Sarah

    (ok, my 1st post in here) We're not too far from Climax, NC over here.... Also... while I was reading just now, I was eating Tostitos and a crumb flew up and got stuck in my eye. You wouldn't think this is possible, considering that the crumb would have to fly out and over my cheek, howevah- the Tostito did not break near my teeth, but near my...

    I like that... a nice little creative writing outlet! -Sarah

    I lean toward thinking of it as a genetic condition- one that may lie dormant for years until it's triggered and becomes active. However-- I always refer to it as a disease when speaking about it to people, because if you say anything else, they often dismiss it as unimportant. -Sarah

    Now this would indeed be ideal! I really don't see why it should be such a hardship for companies to be required to put on their packages whether or not their product is produced in a gluten-free facility or not. I mean jeez, all it takes is an extra line of print or two to save people days of illness. -Sarah

    Wowww, you made you own homemade noodles??? I am way impressed, you rock. I haven't gone there! -Sarah

    You poor woman! Your clueless boss and working environment sound like something out of a quirky movie or TV show. Maybe change your standard reply of "No thank you," to "No thank you, that would kill me." With a smile on your face Say it every single time! Every time he asks, "Is this yours?" You say, "Gosh no, that would kill me." Some people need to...

    Ohhh I hate it when that happens. I only just realized a few weeks ago that my kids' toothpaste wasn't guaranteed gluten-free, and the company (Oral- doesn't recommend it for Celiacs!!! Ugh -Sarah

    Some mainstream gluten-free foods I buy a lot: * Cereal: Cocoa Pebbles, Fruity Pebbles, Berry Pebbles, Trix, Dora the Explorer Cinnamon Stars * Potato Chips: Utz brand, or Lays Stax * Classico Spaghetti Sauces, Hunt's Dices Tomatoes * Hillshire Farms polish sausage * Oscar Meyer weiners * white rice (any brand) * corn tortillas (double check the...

    I have been watching Ghost Hunters for a couple years now, it's one of my favorite shows... but tonight's episode really just scared the living crap out of me!!! I hope somebody out there watches this show, or nobody's going to understand what I'm talking about. I don't get scared by much, I love horror movies, love Stephen King novels, etc... But...

    Some dinner ideas- my kids will eat most of these... - I make gluten-free pizza about once a week (that's how often I used to order it, so why not - Chili in the crockpot (I can't remember what brand chili seasoning I use, even tho I've used it for years. having brain problems tonight It is naturally gluten-free and comes in a little brown bag.)...

    No, Ezra isn't currently gluten-free. He was about 99% gluten-free during the summer, because his brother is 100% gluten-free, and they ate the same things. Every once in awhile he might get a pack of crackers (Ezra.) But then in August, he started pre-school where he eats breakfast, lunch, and a snack. I've looked at the menus, of course, and there is gluten...

    I can't stop giggling over this, sorry! Anyhoo, I agree with everyone else, Megsbaby, you are doing great by your hubby. Your MIL was rude and in a huff because she couldn't handle the fact that she may have screwed up. Shame on her - her pride was more important than her son's health. BTW, Buffettbride-- I, too, have been labeled the gluten Nazi...

    Thank you soooo much, everyone, for your replies!!! Ended up taking Ezra back to the doctor yet again today. He was up all night last night with this cough that just won't go away. Coughed pretty much non-stop from 7 pm last night till about 4pm this afternoon, throwing up more mucous every few hours. Nothing I did, nothing I gave him was doing...

    I was having a terrible time finding an affordable gluten-free kids' multivitamin. Then, just a few days ago, I was in our small-town pharmacy, and on a whim, picked up their generic kids' multivitamin. Lo and behold, it said "Gluten Free" right on the bottle! And it was only 4 bucks. The last bottle of kids gluten-free vitamins I bought, I had gotten at...

    Unfortunately I don't have suggestions about how to make the blood tests easier, BUT... Have you tried Niastin to clear up the diaper rash? It's a prescription ointment for yeast infection that I made sure I always had on hand for my younger son, who had very bad problems with diaper rash. My doc gave me a prescription for that the first time I brought...

    I don't blame you for being reluctant to do anything with anesthesia unless absolutely necessary. It sounds like you have a lot of issues you have to keep in mind when you make decisions about your son! I agree with Momma Goose, have the Celiac panel done, and go from there. As she said, though- there is a significant occurance of false negatives, especially...

    Was the peanut butter from a new, dedicated gluten-free jar, or was it from a jar that's had a knife swiped on gluteny bread and then dipped back in the jar? If it's the latter, that is enough gluten to cause a reaction as well. Don't forget to have separate jar/tubs of peanut butter, jelly, mayo, butter, etc... anything that gets swiped and dipped. -Sarah
