ARCHIVED Morning Breath In A 2 Year Old
celiac-mommy replied to Breila's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Our dd had the same problem, it smelled like poo . I asked the dentist about it and there were 2 thoughts: 1. She's not brushing the back of her tongue well enough or 2. her tonsils are large and pocketed like mine and food is getting stuck back there so she needs to gargle with an anti-bacterial type mouthwash. (I realize this isn't going to work with... -
Please be SO careful with the blizzards. They often use the same spoons for all the mix-ins, there is such a huge risk for CC and a lot of the times the candy mix-ins are all in open containers. I would hate for a twix to get into the M&M's..... Not to mention if the machine isn't cleaned thoroughly between each blizzard. If you have a Cold Stone...

ARCHIVED Cake Question
celiac-mommy replied to cattriona's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I've never had a cake sink, but I have had it fall apart. If you're baking from scratch, make sure and add xanthan gum and maybe an extra egg if the xanthan gum isn't enough for you. For the sinking part, you might be over mixing. gluten-free baking seems to involve as little mixing/stirring as possible to get the ingredients incorporated. -

Just to make sure I was clear, Picazzo's pizza is safe, Mississippi Pizza Pub is NOT!! -
ARCHIVED Beware The Mississippi Pizza Pub In Portland Oregon
celiac-mommy posted a topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
If you're in the Portland area, you may have heard The Mississippi Pizza Pub advertising gluten-free pizza on the radio or on the grain damaged blog, we were trying to eat at the new Picazzo's pizza in Sellwood, but it is apparently closed on Sundays So we decided to go to the M.P.P to try it out. So we walk in and they're making pizza right there in... -
ARCHIVED Grant To Develop Wheat Free Of Harmful Gluten Proteins
celiac-mommy replied to ENF's topic in Publications & Publicity
Sorry, I meant I went to college there (and I met my dh there on the 2nd day of school!) The dr I see is Char Glenn in Portland OR. She specializes in Celiac dz and nutrition. She's WONDERFUL. -
ARCHIVED Grant To Develop Wheat Free Of Harmful Gluten Proteins
celiac-mommy replied to ENF's topic in Publications & Publicity
Couldn't be a more perfect place (because that's where I went ) Ironic... the school is surrounded by miles and miles of wheat fields!! -
ARCHIVED Making Chocolate Candy
celiac-mommy replied to pixiegirl's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
It probably needs to be tempered. If I use tempered chocolate I tend not to get the grainy texture, but it can also depend on the quality of the chocolate. You could try to temper it yourself or add a little bit of fat (oil etc...) to see if that helps. -
I guess that's why the disclaimer: Dairy Queen

Also, if you get soft serve, make sure and ask if they practice making cones and then dump the ice cream back into the machine--CC. We used to do that where I worked in high school

ARCHIVED Bob's Red Mill Mighty Tasty Hot Cereal
celiac-mommy replied to CeliacMom2008's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
This is my dd favorite. She eats it often and never a reaction. She's also very sensitive. -
I was getting the residue also with our other dishwasher, so I switched soaps-from the Seventh Generation eco friendly to Cascade complete and I started using a rinsing agent--Target's Jet-Dry, that helped a lot. We remodeled the kitchen, so I splurged on professional series appliances. Another thing to consider is the finish. If you go stainless steel...

ARCHIVED Sun Screens/tan In A Bottle What Brands Do You Use?
celiac-mommy replied to Ivanna44's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
This is my favorite, some of the formulas have oats, but these don't: Jergens -
ARCHIVED Calling All Vegetarians!
celiac-mommy replied to Nyxie63's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I know they have soy, but my kids love the Gardenburger brand Flame Grill burger is gluten-free, the black bean chipotle and the breakfast sausages are too. They both say 'gluten-free" right on the package. -
ARCHIVED How To Tell If Something Is Safe?
celiac-mommy replied to Paytons-mom's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
1.) Can you assume if it is not on the label that it is safe? How do you know if there is CC. Should we always call the company when it is the first time having something? ----I never assume unless I know the company's reputation--companies like Kraft and ConAgra will clearly list gluten. I call companies all the time. I also base what I buy on how... -

ARCHIVED French Fries
celiac-mommy replied to bakingbarb's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
These are what we eat. You can get the big bag of TDF waffle cut seasoned fries at Costco (ours anyway). I buy the roasted potatoes and the sweet potato fries--which my kids LOVE too. Open Original Shared Link -
ARCHIVED Any Luck With Freezing Frosting?
celiac-mommy replied to stolly's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
As long as it's just like a regular buttercream you can freeze it. I wouldn't freeze a swiss meringue or anything with egg whites. If you buy a can of preservative laden frosting from the store (Pillsbury), it says to use within 2 weeks of opening, BUT I can tell you that 2-3 MONTHS in the fridge is fine (from my experiences....) I've done it and my sister... -
ARCHIVED Flour Replacements
celiac-mommy replied to sammers1's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I made banana bread with Pamela's on Saturday. I took my regular gluten recipe and subbed the Pamela's for the flour, salt, baking powder and soda. I also omitted the oil completely but you could add some if you want. I always decrease the fat by 2/3 whenever I use that mix due to the almond flour it contains--it acts as a fat. If the batter seems a little... -
We just put in this one, I LOVE it! Open Original Shared Link

ARCHIVED What Happened To My Bread?
celiac-mommy posted a topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Tried a new yeast free bread, followed the directions exactly, baked as directed. The only difference was I used the pan of water in the oven like I always do now with the Pamela's mix. The bread looked perfect, tasted AWESOME, but it was FILLED with holes! Anyone know why? It's never happened to me before
