I'm glad you had a good time this weekend! I also got glutened. I think it was yesterday, but it was my own fault. I didn't know what went in the food and ate it, assuming that it was gluten-free. I have paid with a constant headache that has continued overnight. When I go to bed with a headache I usually wake up without one, but not this time...

This is not an advertisement, but some things I highly recommend: Books by Ted Dekker. Boy, is he a great author! He writes books that are great for the action and for the meaning -the first I have ever been able to find! I stayed up late last night reading one of his books. Oh, wow, it was gripping and I couldn't put it down even though several times...

Christmas. I'm thinking about Christmas because I went Christmas shopping today. It was crazy. People were rushing about everywhere, the lines at the checkouts were insanely long, everyone were buying so much stuff. Why? I admit, I was buying a bunch of stuff as well. But I have an excuse. I have presents for everybody in my family every Christmas. (Eleven...

ARCHIVED gluten-free/df Deserts

I really liked this pumpkin pie recipe -if you're casein free just substitute the milk with coconut milk Open Original Shared Link Ginger Lemon Girl: Twist on a pumpkin! -
Today I woke up as usual. I really wasn't all that productive today. In school, that is. Partly because I didn't have that much schoolwork to do. Partly because we had visitors. Partly because I was completely bored with my work and was busy with my story. (I got a chapter done in Sapphire Necklace.) Partly because I was tired. A lot of the time I was staring...

...that story faded off. Then we moved from PA to NC. Pennsylvania to North Carolina. New friends, house, church. Then we got a writing club started. Enter fantasy. I've actually sort of been doing "fantasy" my whole life, basically in a world somehow remarkably like Earth but also my own (so I could mess around with it). Now I actually start creating...

I'm glad that you could resist the chocolate! That's something I also find hard to do. Peanut butter balls, a Christmas classic at our house, are made with peanut butter, margarine, and confectioners sugar and are dipped in melted chocolate chips and coconut oil (changed from shortening). I have dipped a lot of them already, and it can get messy. It's soooo...

How many of you out there like writing fantasy? I love it, and I do pretty well at it -especially when I can focus on one of my many stories. The accountability I have in our writing group is also great. Plus, it helps me get more done on two stories at once. I fill up my quota on one story for the writing group, and then I work as much as I want to on another...

1. Flexibility! We can make room for a whole lot of things (like dentist appointments and spontaneous trips to the museum) and are not restricted by a public school schedule. 2. Lax schedule! (Sort of. ) No strict schedule (really). "Get this done by the time I get home." "Have this finished by next Friday." Our schedule: start at nine (a.m.), do...

I have had a really dry, itchy head recently. Would this be sign of dh?

Here comes my regular schedule in the morning: get up, check email and whatever websites I'm a member of, take care of chickens, eat breakfast, and go back to bed to read and listen to music before having to go do dishes. Late nights tend to upset the balance. I wake up late/r, 6:45 -7:00 a.m., have breakfast and then take care of the chickens, doing...

I adjusted it today -1/4 teaspoon baking powder helps it rise a bit more. And don't worry if it looks a bit black; it doesn't affect the taste at all.

I made up this recipe yesterday after wondering what to do with leftover Thanksgiving pumpkin -it's actually pretty good! 2 eggs 2 tsp. vanilla

I'd like to see a gluten-free bakery, or maybe a completely gluten-free restaurant.

Raleigh, NC?

I'm not sure how this happened... But all of you who are the 'only one's in your family who are gluten free can relate. I think it was the chicken dish my Mom made yesterday. There were plenty of leftovers (enough to fill a large sour cream container), and I'm think that some gluten stuffed-stuffing got mixed in. Today was leftovers (or srevotfel...

We had two people over for the actual Thanksgiving meal...of which some parts had been tailored to suit my diet. The gravy was made with potato starch and coconut milk -providing a stark contrast to wheat flour and regular milk. The stuffing (which has so many fans that it couldn't be cut out) couldn't be cooked inside the turkey, like a lot of people like...

I don't have celiac (just gluten sensitivity), but I also have casein sensitivity. I try to resist cravings as well. Resisting chocolate is hard! I found that some dark chocolate is safe -but that also depends on how sensitive to casein you are. I enjoy Lindt, which is produced in a facility that processes milk. Since my sensitivity is fairly low...

Does coconut cream whip up like regular heavy cream? Thanks!

What is the difference between tapioca starch and tapioca flour, if there is any? -
ARCHIVED Another Pumpkin Pie Recipe

I like this recipe; it's easy and I just substituted coconut milk for the regular kind since I can't have casein: Open Original Shared Link -
Has anybody else ever had sharp abdominal pains that last about 30 to 45 seconds? Would they be related to gluten intolerance? I know that I can't have gluten, but I was just wondering if that could be a side effect of cross-contamination.

ARCHIVED Having Trouble With Hidden Glutens
eeyore replied to fleckapo's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
These helped me when I first started: * Do not eat anything that contains the following grains: wheat, rye, and barley. * The following can be eaten in any amount: corn, potato, rice, soybeans, tapioca, arrowroot, carob, buckwheat, millet, amaranth and quinoa. * Distilled white vinegar does not contain gluten. * Malt vinegar does contain... -
I'm less sick with the cold (just a few sniffles here and there) but I think something went wrong last night and I think I ate something I wasn't supposed to -I have no clue at all what it would be. (I had chicken, quinoa with red peppers and peas, and broccoli, with gluten-free cookies for dessert.) I woke up twice last night to use the bathroom and had...
