    OMG!! Chris and I have tickets to go see Smile in NEW YORK CITY!!! THANK YOU, Amanda Romney!!!!! Anyone have suggestions on how we can get there? Leads on free rides or anything? I think we'll probably Megabus -- $60 round trip for the two of us is pretty good, but we can't buy tickets till next week Thursday, so I hope they don't go up in price too much!

    I take Vitafusion gummy vitamins. They're very specific in their labeling: "Contains no wheat (gluten), milk eggs peanuts, shellfish, or soy. The facility that manufactures this product also produces products that contain soy." I take a multivitamin and a calcium-with-D. They also have a B complex, a B12, a C, a D without calcium, prenatal, mens' and...

    So, Emily, John -- is there such a thing as a perm that won't make me look like a refugee from the '80s? I want curly hair but I don't want to look awful! This is not something I'll be doing right away, but maybe when I'm back in town for the wedding... ;)

    Regarding corn chips and gluten-free, I went to a restaurant once where their corn chips weren't gluten-free because they were made at the restaurant, and they had a shared fryer. Actually, that's also the source of my "best" (and by best I mean worst, LOL) gluten-free restaurant story. I ordered a meal that would normally have come with bread, and I...

    Update: it looks like the recipe needs a bit more water, and probably a bit of oil in the dough, to be really perfect. I would try about 2 tablespoons of oil in the dough, and another half-cup or so of water. My pizza crust was a bit dry. It also didn't rise quite enough, so maybe I should just have been more patient this time!

    Copycat "Pan Pizza." I posted the recipe as a separate thread. I'm SOOOO happy with this one!! I tweaked a recipe I found online, and it made something that tasted just like I remember Pizza Hut. I wasn't even specifically going for that at the time, but it turned out REALLY well.

    Gluten free copycat "Pan Pizza!" Ingredients: 1 cup milk 1/2 cups water 2 tbsp. honey 1 1/2 tbsp. yeast (or so) 2 tsp. xanthan gum 3 cups gluten-free Flour Blend (approximately 1/3 starch, 2/3 flours - my blend was 1 cup sorghum, 1 cup rice, and 1 cup tapioca starch) Pinch or two of salt (I used sea salt - how salty you like your pizza...

    Sweet potatoes are good. I like to make a mixture of chickpeas, chopped onion, cooked millet, and cooked rice, and saute that together with some green olives, and serve it over cooked sweet potatoes with some plain yoghurt for garnish. It sounds odd but it's really good, provided you can tolerate the starches.

    FYI, see this post for an update. I've refined the process and it's a little easier, and slightly less messy.

    FYI, just tried the chocolate "Olga bread." It's awesome.

    gluten-free "Olga Bread" 2.0: I posted a recipe for a gluten-free "Olga Bread" a couple weeks ago. I LOVE the stuff, and I personally think it makes a good quick snack. I particulrly like it with cheese, but if you can't have dairy you can pretty much add any fillings you like and it's still delish. I make it with xanthan gum but I tried it once with...

    I actually love Tinkyada rice pasta. I also recently managed to get ahold of a used (but not really USED - no gluten contamination) pasta maker a while back, and I found that you can make a really good fresh gluten-free pasta just out of a high-protein flour blend (I think mine had rice and soy flour, mostly), oil, water, and xantham gum (or probably guar...

    I got about 12 frying-pan sized breads; of course that will vary depending on how thick you make them (eg how much dough goes into each bread), and how big your frying pan is. I made mine too thin to split like a pita, but I suspect you could do that if you made them a bit thicker and were clever about it. I don't know the trick to making "real" pita...

    Olga Bread is a slightly sweet flatbread that is served in Olga's restaurants, a chain that (AFAIK) exists only in the Midwest USA. They're pretty commonly found in shopping malls, in my experience. I grew up eating at Olga's in Michigan, and one of the things I missed the most post-Celiac diagnosis was Olga bread, so I decided to see if I could find...

    I've made crepes with just millet flour before. It works fine. I think most of the structure of a crepe is in the eggs, anyway.
