    Hey all! Kara has a temp of 101. She's allowed to take an Ibuprofen but now I'd like to give her Tylenol. I bought the Very Berry Strawberry and on their website..it says it has not been tested for gluten but they can't imagine it containing gluten b/c they use corn starch etc. Has anyone here used this specific flavor of Tylenol? Thanks so much!

    Does anyone on here eat Eggo syrup? Kara got upset again this morning..having to eat (gasp!) REAL maple syrup. I know it's better for her than the artifical stuff but at this point...if the artifical stuff is gluten-free..I don't care. It can be her one vice b/c she rarely eats waffles anyway. I see that Aunt Jemima can't guarantee their's is gluten-free...

    I'm sure this has been suggested a million times ..but for newbies like me... I'm excited anytime I hear of something other than a ham roll up to pack my DD for lunch! Well, yesterday I bought some Llyods Barbeque (for the 1st time) for my DH...and as I was heating it up...I happened to turn the package over and it said GLUTEN FREE! I was SO happy...and...

    I bought the variety box of these bars...Peanut Butter and Cinnamon and Raisin. It is made by Kraft so I knew it'd list gluten ingredients if there were any. Well, the PB bars have barley malt but the Cinnamon Raisin sounded safe. So I let me daugther have one b/c she's been craving a good cereal bar. Well, she loved it and had no reaction. I called the...

    Thanks! Did you talk to the chef before you got there or when you arrived? We're counting on eating outside of Disney to save money..but if the food court is good..that'd be great. Kara doesn't eat enought to warrant eating at all of the sit down restaurants and then us leaving with $100 or more check.

    We're going in May to Disney and I had ( and still might) go to PF Chang's but then I saw how swanky it was. Can you go in shorts and a t-shirt? If not, I thought I'd check out Pei Wei since it seems more casual. We're staying at Pop Century so if anyone can tell me if their gluten-free food is good and about how long it'll take us to get there...I'd appreciate...

    Hi, My DD is 9 and was diagnosed at the end of October. She is doing pretty well but I still can't take her to the store. The last 3 times she went with me..she left in tears (and me too)! She was very depressed after being diagnosed. Sometimes she'd cry in the car b/c she said she just couldn't hold it in any longer. I felt horrible b/c she was trying...

    Hey, I'm sorry to say that they do NOT have iron. But the Land Before Time vitamin (they are Walgreens brand) DO have iron in them. And I bet they're cheaper than the Freeda kind. But if you do go to Walgreens..make sure you look at the box because one DOES contain gluten and the other dosen't. These say GLUTEN FREE on the box. And now that I see these...

    Kara says the same thing. As long as she has ham, cheese and pepperoni on it..she's good to go!

    Hey, I'm not sure if it's been mentioned on here but my DH just called the company that makes Member's Mark gummy vitamins (buy them at Sams Club) and they said they do NOT use any gluten in their vitamins. The ingredients sounded fine to me but of course we wanted to verify. Kara has been taking the hard gluten-free vitamins that you get at Walgreens...

    containers and it would be much easier for me to keep them in the pantry. But I see on the bag that it says to store in the fridge. I was just wondering how many of you actually do that. I don't know about ya'll....but my fridge pretty much stays crammed and I don't have room for 6 containers! Also...thanks to whomever mentioned going to the Asian stores...

    My DH is buying the buttermilk today. THANKS!! It sounds great and I can't wait to try them. Tonight is our first attempt at making her a pizza crust. I pray she likes it. Mary

    Thank you! I needed to hear this! You are so kind to take them time to write to me and my DD will appreciate it. Mary

    My daugther is 9 (almost 10) and would love to make some friends "just like her". Mary

    I emailed Pinnacle about the Log Cabin Country Kitchen Buttery syrup. And they emailed back and they basically said....they don't have a dedicated line and to just read the ingredients. Well, that didn't answer my question of what is "natural butter type flavor"....it doesn't sound very good but I"m at the point that if it doesnt' have gluten in it...I want...

    That is Kara's favorite syrup. She's still going through being "depressed" about not gettng to eat Wendy's french fries, etc...now I have to tell her she can't have her "good ole syrup" on her waffles anymore. Any suggestions on other gluten-free syrups that are similar? She hates the "real" stuff. Hope everyone had a great Christmas! I'm hoping things...

    Thank you. I feel better about the weight gain (or lack thereof). I guess I thought it would be immediate. She does feel better...although she was never aware that she felt bad. I just asked her today if she felt better and she said yes..she feels happy, sometimes, for no reason. She goes back to the Dr. in early Jan so I'm interested to see what he says...

    Thank you so much! mary

    I see it says spices...do I need to be worried? She's eaten it before with no reaction but I just wanted to ask ya'll if you've ever used it. Thanks! and for the record...it's been 4 1/2 weeks and kara hasnt' gained any weight that I can tell. It's been THREE weeks and we still can't get the Celiac "specialist" dietician to call us back!!

    And my polyps were benign and NO evidence of cancer....PRAISE THE LORD. I actually felt guilty telling DD that I didnt' have it. But said I'd support her and eat what she eats. And she just smiled and said..."aren't you happy you don't have it?" She is THE BEST. Doing some surfing on here and see that Maragaritaville in FLordia looks great for gluten...

    I was wondering if the popcorn at the movies are safe, too! Mary
  24. Kara'sMom
    Do you use it instead of mixing all of the other flours to bake with? Can you fry up some chicken nuggets with it? Soon we're headed to Whole Foods to buy the staples to bake with. Does everyone here find it cheaper in the long run to buy in bulk online (if so..whats the website and once shipping is added..are u really saving money?) or are you fine just...
  25. Kara'sMom
    That sounds great. How do you make your chicken Cordon Bleu and what is Moussaka? mary
