    Insomnia is truly a horrid thing. Like you, I am lucky if I have one good sleep per week. However, for some reason (perhaps the B12 sublingual and/or B complex and/or Vitamin D3) when I do sleep well (rare) I feel like I could conquer the world. I am full of energy. But with chronic pain it is so difficult to get in a comfortable position and fall asleep...

    Tonight we had yummy leftovers from last evening (Swedish meatballs et. al. with the addition of freshly-baked gluten-free bread slathered with homemade strawberry jam). This weekend we are dogsitting in the country and are taking things along to make the following for tomorrow night: Cider Brined Roast Chicken with Saffron, Citrus and Honey Glaze Roast...

    Awesome! In one of our flyers today they are on sale for $3.99 which is unheard of for gluten-free cereal so I am going to stock up like mad!

    Have you tried soba noodles? They are made with buckwheat and are thicker than rice noodles - they are like udon. They have a nice bite to them. We had some the other night and found them to be vastly superior to rice noodles (in our opinions). As hibachi literally means spicy bowl I would also add some pepper flakes and/or Sriracha sauce, gluten-free...

    Awesome. It is heartwarming to hear of such excellent spousal support. My husband has yet to make gluten-free bread like yours! It is a huge compliment that you eat better than many restaurants. We do, too, in all seriousness. And the risk of CC is far less at home, too. As far as the pain goes, I force my way through it. Part of the reason why I...

    It has been a long wait for news this good! At my celiac support group meeting last night someone mentioned that the Chex is also at WalMart!!!! Double YAY!

    You are so right. Things would be different if I had a FT job, that is for sure. I volunteer some mornings at a shelter, I teach cooking classes regularly, test recipes for big US magazines but this does not equate to FT work. Plus with such horrific back pain there is no way I could work FT hours. I have been off work due to chronic pain for over three...

    My dental office told me I should avoid it because of trace amounts of gluten. Perhaps I am too picky??!!

    Am guessing they are akin to the cevapcici (pronounced chev-ap-chee-chee) in Eastern Europe? If that is what is meant they are skinless seasoned meat patties or sausages that are typically served with ajvar, a lovely European condiment which includes eggplant, red peppers, garlic and chili peppers.

    I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE spending time in my kitchen. I practically live there! When I am not cooking or baking for us, I am teaching culinary classes or testing recipes. We have never gone out to eat much around here because there is nowhere to go so we are used to driving three hours to eat at a nice place. As I must lie down in our vehicle to go distances...

    My husband is watching the Canucks win tonight! I will be at our Celiac meeting so will miss the Canucks winning.

    This one is easy and very versatile - lots of optional add in ideas at the end. Great way to use up all those gluten-free cereals! Open Original Shared Link

    FYI Crest informed me that although their toothpastes are gluten-free, their Pro-Health Rinse and Whitening Rinse can contain trace amounts of gluten. Sensodyne toothpaste cannot guarantee gluten-free status. It was my favourite toothpaste and had to switch. When you go to the dentist be sure to ask whether their rinses, etc. are gluten-free. I was...

    Various flours such as coconut, almond, teff, garfava, millet, sorghum, etc. There are 18 flours in my freezer, all of which I use for baking. It is fun to see how different flours react/act in baking. Whilst I've always liked pulses, there are now more in our diet now including cranberry beans, all sorts of lentils, more chickpeas than before, desi...

    I use my own homemade pizza sauce, homemade pesto (all kinds), fresh basil and mushrooms. And if I am feeling rather indulgent, crispy pancetta or bacon jam. Another favourite of mine is to make bianca or "white" pizza the way they do it in Italy. It simply is very fresh olive oil, fresh herbs and a sprinkling of good salt. Also nice with Parmesan, Asiago...

    Having had Schar and Udi bread, Udi's is FAR better. Trust me. Schar's is one of the absolute worst I have ever tried and I refuse to have it again. Ever. The texture is horrid. Udi's is a vast improvement. My preference is to make my bread but for those not inclined Udi's is really pretty good (especially toasted). Have never seen Rudi's bread but...

    Super Store (Loblaws). Believe me, I was stunned to see them. I actually got tears in my eyes because I was that astounded! Maybe I should go and grab 20 boxes to ensure they continue selling them here! They were not in the regular cereal section nor where they in the gluten-free section - in between those aisles at the very end (teaser aisle). At...

    When I went on my gluten challenge for nearly 4 months I felt very good! Absolutely NO obvious reactions at all. I actually quite enjoyed eating my favourite foods once again. But there was no doubt on my biopsies that I have celiac disease. I had such high hopes that I didn't have it because I felt so great! So, your daughter may still have celiac...

    It was very flavourful and fun. Sorry you missed it - perhaps tonight?

    That is a very good price! I look forward to checking this out. Had my Chex this morning and it is very good. It is definitely the best gluten-free cereal (by far) I have ever tried. I have never had Chex before - when we visit the US we generally don't have cereal!

    I look forward to trying Udi's bagels. Have you tried the Udi's pizza crust? They are thin and crisp but pretty good - about 1,903,476 times better than Kinnikinnick pizza crust and bagels. Those are absolutely horrid. I still like making my own crust best but sometimes when you're in a rush it is nice to have crusts on hand (will freeze more of my own...

    Will definitely check it out when we make the next drive to the city.

    So, that happens to others, too?
