Cherry Tart

Hello Friends! I desperately need your suggestions... I have a 4 month old baby and I'm breastfeeding.........and I'm have major issues with the Big C. I had this problem toward the latter part of my pregnancy and right after delivery but, these issues usually resolved within a few hours of taking Senokot or drinking tea. This has been going on...

For safety sake, be sure to check with the manufacturer first before consuming fondant. I did alot of research for a friend who has a bakery regarding fondant. I did discover that the 2 following manufacturers are safe (the 3rd would not comment): Bakels Fondant We can confirm that the Modified Food Starch in Pettinice RTR Icing is derived from...

Hello! There's a tiny healthfood store by me, in Southern California, called Vitamin City (not affiliated w/ the chain) that caters to several different food issues (lactose, soy, nut-free, sugar-free), however, the emphasis is on vegetarian, organic, and gluten free products. They have two giant sections (one dry goods, the other frozen) dedicated to...

When it comes to mainstream cereals there's Rice Chex (gluten-free label right on the box), Fruity or Cocoa Pebbles. My favorite is EREWHON Rice cereal w/ Berries (like rice krispies but better and healthier), you can find it at Whole Foods/Sprouts/Henry's markets. Just watch their packaging, not all flavors are gluten free

Hi Dawn, Not to worry, once you get the hang of it - the gluten-free lifestyle becomes second nature. Here are some quick breakfast ideas: Cereal (Rice Chex is my fav - Cocoa/Fruity Pebbles are great for a sugar fix), PB&J on rice cakes, hard boiled eggs and cheese slices, Trader Joe's frozen gluten-free banana waffles or rice pancakes (they...

Thanks for the info Liz!

Hello All! I was recently going through my cupboard when I noticed that I had several baking mixes that had expired (remnants of my early gluten-free hoarding days). Is it OK to use mixes that have expired? I just assumed that since they were in sealed packaging that they would still be OK. I'm not a baking guru, so any advice on this would be greatly...

Hi Amber, I'm going to Oahu/Maui in a couple of weeks. Ken kindly gave me some great suggestions too. I was inspired to do some more research. Here are some links that pertain to both islands: Oahu Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link Open Original Shared Link Open...

Hi Friends, Just wanted to let you know about a great Dr. I've been seeing for our fertility issues. His name is Dr. Paul Magarelli. He has offices in Colorado and California (I went to the CA office). I've never been more pleased and pampered by a doctor's office in my life! His staff was kind, caring, and brilliant. Dr. Mag's knowledge and sensitivity...

Hello Friends! I'm traveling to Oahu and Maui in a couple of weeks. Does anyone have any good gluten-free restaurants they would recommend? I know they have the 'ol reliables: PF Changs, Outback, and Roy's - I was just hoping to find some other suggestions. Many thanks in advance!!!

DaveyBoy, I'm having the same problem. I wasn't sure if the issue was on my end or the forum. I can't even find the button to log out so I can refresh and re-enter!

Hi! I suggest Nature Made pre-natals. They are labeled gluten-free on the back! You can get them at Target for a good price

cmbolen, It's really best to wait a year for his system to heal before trying to conceive. Usually, motility/count/morphology will improve once his system is operating properly. After being on the diet for a few months, I suggest going to a fertility specialist for an evaluation for both of you (that is, if you haven't done so already). It's easy...

Hi MsMini14, I'm right by you, I'm in Ontario. Thanks for sharing the gluten-free registry site - I haven't seen that one before. Very good source of info!
