  1. Thank you:) I have a 5 year old and a 2 year old who love juices...we usually buy Ocean Spray and if its on sale the Simply Apple or Simply Orange.
  2. Is it only a certain batch or flavor or the sparkling? I have 4 different flavors at home plus the sparkling.
  3. I just watched that episode and while I didn't care for it as a show, I didn't find that the facts were managed too horribly. While they did show people cheating on the diet, the one who needed gluten free for medical reasons did not cheat and I think it did bring up a valid point that the diet can be difficult to adhere to at first especially when you...
  4. Do you see the plus and minus sign in the upper right hand corner of the post? The plus ups the posters reputation and the minus lowers it, so it's done by people saying if they like that post or not. Hope that helps.
  5. Leftover roast beef, probably smashed potatoes with a drizzle of olive oil, salt and pepper and maybe some leftover carrot fries and I am going to attempt to make my husband mac n cheese with the Tinkyada elbows and extra sharp white cheddar cheese and no cows milk, lucky I love him because I have a feeling it will take a while to get right.
  6. In my experience with my 5 year old daughter, regular playdough is not ok for us because she doesn't always remember to keep her hands away from her mouth. Good Luck.
  7. I just wanted to throw out there that I was just on Butterball's website and they list their Gravy Ingredients: Water, Modified Corn starch, Maltodextrin, Salt, Rice Flour, Cooked Turkey, Onion Powder, Caramel Color, Garlic Powder, Spices. To me these look gluten free, please tell me if I am wrong because I can not manage to make homemade gravy for...
  8. I'm glad that everyone had a nice Thanksgiving. Mine was really nice also, we went to my mom's house and I made a chicken and rice dish with sausage for our dinner plus carrot fries to share, but when I got there my mom had turkey, broccoli and raw mushrooms that we could have too plus she made one batch of cranberry sauce with stevia since I can't really...
  9. That is wonderful:)
  10. Elana's Chocolate Chip scones (stones according to my 5 year old or cookies according to my almost 2 year old cookie monster:))
  11. update: I got certified!!!!!
  12. I talked to my mom yesterday and she said that she was going to make the stuffing gluten free and would make baked apples for dessert for my family. I was extremely shocked because she has always made the same foods from the same recipes and I am so grateful. I still say that the holidays are a bit trying though.
  13. My husband is extremely understanding and I am so grateful for that. He went gluten free with me and our daughters and found that he felt better too so he definitely understands. I guess there are alot of things to think about in the next few weeks.
  14. I don't work right now and they don't take being gluten free seriously at all. It's a very small family get together...my husband, my daughters and I going over to my mother's house which is my mom, dad, sister and grandmother. We were only diagnosed by dietary response so we are stuck. And no one is allowed to help my mother...she doesn't like having people...
  15. Normally I wouldn't complain in the least about not being able to eat everything because I am so grateful that I don't feel sick all the time, but this is our first holiday that has alot of things served which we can not eat. I am not sure if I can deal with the holidays this year, especially Thanksgiving...we always go over to my mom's house, no matter what...
  16. We make ours by cutting up baby carrots (you can use regular too) and putting some olive oil and seasoning on them. In an earlier post I think I said that I put salt, pepper, brown sugar and cinnamon...it's all to taste. Then bake at 350 til the carrots are tender and slightly brown, I think it took about 20 min in my oven.
  17. Homemade apple pie:) It was made with a pie crust from Elana's Pantry and it was more like a crumble on top...it was so so good!
  18. I love carrot fries!!! We usually make them with salt, pepper, brown sugar and cinnamon. What did you put on them?
  19. There are some people that just have to have the carbs and since you feel better when you eat potatoes I would say that may be the problem. I know that I get ill if I do not have either potatoes or rice.
  20. I just wanted to add something about the self-harm with saying that it will not help anything feel better. With cutting there is one moment where the adrenaline makes things seem better, but that moment passes very quickly and self mutilation is addictive due to that release of adrenaline. In turn to keep feeling better you would have to keep cutting and...
  21. Another update...in the last 3 weeks my girl has gained another pound and another inch:) She is now 26 lbs and 31 inches!
  22. That sounds delicious!!! Thank you for the recipe.
  23. I got a pumpkin that we stuck Winnie the Pooh things in and my oldest will carve pumpkins with my sister while I make caramel apples this weekend. Also I'll be taking my daughters trick or treating on Halloween (they are both being cowgirls this year) and then they will give whatever they get away, probably to kids on my daughter's soccer team, in return...
  24. I'm so sorry that you are having such a rough time. For the pumpkin pie you can use an alternate milk, I have made it with coconut milk before and the texture was no different and it also worked with our homemade rice milk even though it took some time to get the right consistency for the milk.
  25. We really started noticing weight gain at the 4 month point with my youngest, she was 15 months old when we started the diet and it has been 7 months now and she has gained quite a bit.
