  1. I wouldn't think that you would need to get rid of a marble rolling pin. Marble isn't porous.
  2. I hear you! I think that I would feel the same way.
  3. Nope, Jif natural peanut butter is fine. I love the little to go cups of it.... Nut butter machines can really only make nut butter, no reason why gluten would be on a PB machine. I noticed that you have multiple food sensitivities, have you ruled out a possible peanut issue?
  4. Yes, post all the celiac blood tests that were run. I'm sorry that she's ill and I hope that you get answers soon!
  5. Back when I ate dairy, I loved the Pacific Foods mushroom soup. That is a great consistency for recipes! Now that I'm DF, I like this tutorial. Open Original Shared Link
  6. Icelandgirl, do you live in Iceland? Or are you in one of the northern United States or in Canada? Those temps sound COLD! We're in Michigan and it's nowhere near that cold here.
  7. Yes, I vote for gluten challenging and retesting too. I manage to be strict on my diet with no diagnosis, but then again, I have dangerous symptoms. If someone had only mild symptoms, cheating could be a lot easier.
  8. Judging by the response of my 3 little gluten eaters, I think that they were a success.
  9. Well, my 5 year old and I baked up a batch and they're cooling now, so we'll see. I like the simplicity of the recipe.
  10. I don't have any honey on hand, but I think that I'll try making them with coconut sugar instead and see how they turn out.
  11. Last year, we had an extremely severe winter in Michigan. I'm pretty much bracing myself for more of the sane and decided that I'm going to enjoy it as much as possible. I plan to get out and go sledding with the kids after it starts snowing here.
  12. ^Yes. No sane doctor would recommend that I ever do a gluten challenge because of my history. Sometime I should write an article about us self-diagnosed people and how diagnosis is not as cut and dried and easy as it seems. Compared to the FODMAPs diet, the gluten free diet is a breeze! I've looked over some of the things that FODMAPs eliminates and...
  13. Would the Ian's work on a green bean casserole?
  14. Does anybody know if these exist commercially at all? I've looked around on Google and Amazon and haven't found any.
  15. I'm kind of too the point where I don't mind what other people think of my diet anymore. I'm pretty sure that my neurological symptoms are not "all in my head" nor were they caused by poor eating or eating too many carbs. LOL! Whether I'm actually celiac or have NCGS or gluten ataxia, I know that gluten free is not a fad diet for me. I don't need a...
  16. Do the non-celiacs in your house cook? In my house, they don't, so I call the shots. But I don't insist that they go gluten free, I just ask them to avoid eating gluten in the house. They can eat all they want in restaurants, at potlucks, or friends' houses.
  17. Keep in mind that some celiacs don't get obvious symptoms from minor CC, but it is still damaging their gut. So it's important for all celiacs to be careful of CC, whether they are having outward symptoms or not.
  18. After a few weeks of my kids gluten challenging, I started getting severe chronic headaches and some speech difficulty. I got rid of most of it from the house and tried to be more careful and my symptoms subsided. Considering that my symptoms when I went gluten free included chronic severe headaches and a full TIA with numbness and speech difficulties, I...
  19. In response to CC issues, I tend to tell people that I got a relapse of neuro symptoms just from bringing bread in my house for my kids. Then they kind of get how serious it is and how important it is to be strict.
  20. Oh yeah, that is frustrating! What I do sometimes especially if it's a potluck setting and somebody brought a "gluten free" dish, is I smile and say, "Okay," and then just don't eat it and I don't mention it to them. That's harder though when somebody tries to make something and send it home specifically for you.
  21. I find that it's best to keep my explanations short and simple. "If I eat gluten, I will risk getting a stroke and dying. So I have to be strict, there's no choice."
  22. Somebody needs to contact TJ's about the labelling error. Oats should not be labelled gluten free unless they are certified! Aldi's chips are labelled "naturally gluten free" but contain oats. I won't touch them.
  23. I unfortunately can't tolerate dairy, but I do eat eggs. Feel free to message me any of your good recipes.
  24. The article states that it's in vitro. Does that mean that it could be accurate without gluten consumption?
  25. Thanks for sharing! I noticed from your signature that you are also vegetarian. I am, as well!
