ARCHIVED About Ready To Eat A Tree!
mamaw replied to LuvMoosic4life's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
MommaGoose thank you . We all should be helping each other & the world would be a better place. I'm sure it wasn't easy to say she is hungry & trying to get an education to have a good life. I think we all have been there. Just think if we all sent a dollar what an impact we would have on a life! blessings mamaw -

ARCHIVED Mixer Recommendations?
mamaw replied to IMWalt's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I have a kitchen aid hand mixer & a stand mixer. The hand one is about eight years old now & just keeps going. Plus it has many verying speeds that keeps up with the heavy gluten-free stuff. I blew up my old mixer on the second try with gluten-free ! The hand mixer is about $50.00 but it is well worth the price.....hth mamaw -
ARCHIVED About Ready To Eat A Tree!
mamaw replied to LuvMoosic4life's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I'm guessing you are eating gluten-free, correct? I see where others have said about food banks but I wonder how much gluten-free they would have, I'm sure you could get rice, beans, butter & staples but do you have a place where you can actually cook?Some students just have a micro. I can tell you that if you e-mail a few gluten-free companies they... -
ARCHIVED Newly Diagnosed- What To Throw Out Of Kitchen
mamaw replied to wschmucks's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
breadmakers that have been used for wheat bread needs replaced as well. There is no way to clean the holes where the paddles attach. I would get rid of anything that is porous & scratched.The hand mixer is also another thing to take a close look at. The air vents usually get clogged with flour.Cutting boards as well. good luck on your new lifestyle... -
Hi Ken Thank you so much . You certainly did the right thing in this case. I have a person near me that fifteen years ago a doctor said spelt was okay to eat on the gluten-free diet, well of course today we all know that isn't true but these people continue to believe because it came from a doctor, it was ok. I have sent them educational maerials &...

ARCHIVED Baking Supplies
mamaw replied to Jenny (AZ via TX)'s topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
betterbatter is good for at least a year on the shelf. I just keep it at a even temp away from heat & sunlight. The only thing I freeze is the brown rice flour as it goes bad sooner than other stuff. Usually just keep it in a cool place is fine. Others will tell you to refirgerate . If you do remeber to bring iot to room temp before using it & also... -
ARCHIVED Against The Grain's Baguettes
mamaw replied to Mountaineer Josh's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
AtG is wonderful. No expandex. They are truly the best available for rolls... To get them in your area ask your favorite store to carry this line.

ARCHIVED What Happened To "made By Mona's"?
mamaw replied to ptkds's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
Made by Mona is no more! Lisa Shaw was the gluten-free guru behind Mona's . Company up- heavel & she got booted from her company. In other words too many chiefs & not enough Indians !!!!! We loved her mixes too. SHe has been out of business for a good while now , you must have gotten an order at the very end of the business. She now does some... -

There is a Whole Foods & a Trader Joe's not to far away. Wf is on Centre & TJ'S is on Penn. Sorry ! mamaw Oh, have you eaten at Tommy's in Strongsville...

Hi Angie What a wonderful time& you got to meet new friends . We always buy only gluten free candy that way if the kids happen to find the Halloween stash & eat it , they will not get sick at least from gluten....... We did get one lil kid that asked for anything that did not have nuts in it. He was very polite & thanked me when I said no nuts...

Hello Wow, I wonder how your doctor came up with that one>>>> maybe he can twitch his nose & make celiac disappear! No wonder the US is so far behind other countries regarding celiac. I think it is us who have to teach doctors , they are not teaching us anything.... I do have to laugh a bit about his comment because I'm blue eyed &...

ARCHIVED Not Sure If I Have Celiacs
mamaw replied to Linzee's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
You have no way of telling what is going on inside your intestinal tract, many people show or present with NO symptoms. Plus just because you do not have celiac does not mean you also are not gluten intolerant. If you cheat you will never find out for sure. It can take up to ten years for a doctor to get a correct dx's.... To clarify celiac disease also... -
