    be cautious of the 'gluten free bible'. there have been quite a few discussions on the boards here about that book. many feel that there is misinformation given in it. i've never heard a complaint about danna's book though...

    bridget-- if i was you, i would also read 'wheat free, worry free' by danna korn. it will educate you on all the aspects of celiac and living gluten free. i ordered mine from amazon but you could get it in a bookstore too.

    i would highly recommend you read 'wheat free, worry free' by danna korn. excellent resource--will give you a big overview and details of the disease, diet etc. it will educate you greatly. you can order it on amazon or in most bookstores.

    your kids do sound great! and i do think you have the right attitude...many moms don't know where their kids end and they begin! your sons sounds like he will make a great husband to some woman one day--how thoughtful! one of my mom's secret dreams is to have a gazebo some day

    a good resource is the Gluten-free Casein-free diet website--it is for gluten-free and casein (dairy) free diets. go here to see their list of gluten-free/cf candies, make sure you read the descriptions though, as some may have special notes or exceptions: Open Original Shared Link

    hey! welcome--glad you've joined us that is a bit of hard question. it can vary person to person. many times is depends on how long you've suffered from the disease. many here felt noticeably better within a few months. as for myself, i am about 9 months gluten-free and am still waiting to feel a great improvement in my energy and muscle pain. i think...

    Don't be worried! I bet the food will be delicious! We have gluten-free dinners etc at our house often. Don't talk about it once they get there, and I bet a lot of them won't even think about it. Hope you have fun!

    me too!

    Lynne- Using the gazebo would be cool! The cookie exchange is really fun, and not hard to do. Since some of my friends aren't quite martha stewart's, I have everyone bring 4 dozen cookies. I choose not to make people rsvp their cookie (my dh thought that was too OCD), but I did include a long list of more unique and uncommon cookies in the invite to...
