did it contain sulfites.... I have a pretty dramatic reaction to sulfites - so sorry, we'll say a prayer for him...and you (((hugs)))))))

awww I never saw this, so sweet. I'm definitly not the best LOL, very much a goober about most everything...but I did want to update. My skin/scalp BLEW UP after about a month of the Avalon, then California Baby - found out that I am allergic to anything with chamomile & lavender (or related plants)- a slight positive to tea tree. I'm trying Johnsons...

I was so busy working that I didn't get to buy or make anything to take with me. I decided to take someone else's place in the nursery so he would be able to participate with his family. It turned out to be an amazing blessing for me, the time with the kids was so sweet...I know God knows my heart so there is peace about it all now.

I know its been awhile since I've been here, but its hard to type when you're scratching. I switched to sea salt, tried to find foods without added salt...can the sea salt be making this worse. I'm skippety allergic to everything! EVERYTHING! Bare Minerals is a no go, tried every amkeup I can find and I still break out or turn beet red. I'm having...

This will be my first Lord's Supper (Baptist) since being diagnosed. I've also been diagnosed with an allergy to milk and sulfites (sulfites are kind of scary since they affect my breathing so drastically). I keep benadryl with me in case I come into contact with sulfites. A friend suggested taking benadryl 20 mins before drinking the grape juice and seeing...

Try an SLS, ALS- (sulfate) free shampoo and also try conditioner only washings. I started this a few months ago and my head cleared up well...I was losing my hair. Well I fell prey to the coupons and bought some SLS shamppo on sale, within a month my hair was falling out again and my head had the horrible rash like you described. I'm back to using Avalon...

Thanks guys, hope you enjoy...but accck I swear I ran a spell check, sorry about all the spelling errors.

My kids have been bugging the snot out of me to make a close reproduction of their favorite scones. I am shocked that the first try went so well. I may tweak it a little by adding a little bit more palm shortening and a pinch of salt. But considering there is not one scone left, I think they were a success as is. I used Gluten Free Pantry Muffin and...

sorry I wasn't clear, I'm sure there was no soy, so dairy, or sunflower (which just makes my throat swell and break out in hives) From what I've read the problem with Fritos and some people having gluten reactions is that theres a chance of being contaminated. So some batches could've been made after something with gluten in it. From the Raleigh Celkids...

There are 3 gluten free people at our church including me (I'm the worst because of the dairy and soy problems). I put our potluck food in a seperate area...too many chances someone could make it contaminated by accident. This way we all have food, can eat with our families, and not starve & feel left out. Yeah it would be nice to grab a bit of everything...

My endoscopy would'lve been MONTHS down the road when my bloodwork came back showing possible celiac. I remember my dr looking at me and telling me I could not wait until August, I was so weak and sick, that she wanted me ot stop gluten and possibly dairy that day. I barely drove myself to the dr. I'd been in the ER with low potassium 3 times in the prior...

not sure if this link will work, but here is the thread I have on facebook about my ventures with gluten free pizza. I miss tossing the dough into the air, but it pretty awesome pizza. I make my pizza without cheese, but here is one I made for our Pastor, he also has celiac. Open Original Shared Link I used Bob's gluten free pizza...

as a former dough tosser at a pizza joint my biggest worry would be contamination. There is flour flying round in the air, on everyone and everything..gluten disaster zone...they would have to have seperate everything from pans to toppings to the aprons the cooks use. For me its just not worth the risk. not sure if this link will work, but here is the...

There are alot of ways to do brownies. I love Trader Joes and Bob's mixes, can't do betty crocker because of the soy. The hands down favorite are my peanut butter swirl brownies. I use a mix of canola oil and palm shortening in the place of butter or vegetable oil. Peanut Butter Swirl 1 cup(s) creamy peanut butter (I have been known to use more...

So here I am feeling like a fool. I'm itching all over with a lovely DH rash. Lots clumps of hair, though so far no one can figure out where those clumps are coming from. And I hurt from head to toe, feel like someone's kicked me in my kidneys, no real strength in my hands & arms and I feel like my legs have weights attached. There is bloating plus other...
