    I JUST finished The Red Tent ---- AMAZING!!!! Could not put it down and stayed up until the middle of the night to finish it. I also highly recommend and enjoy Russel Banks (Affliction, etc.) --- especially Rule of the Bone; The Poisonwood Bible - Kingsolver (I re-read it every year) --- and The History of Love (author escaping me right now) which has...

    Locally, a few places have started selling brownies and cookies from "cookies...for me?" I have tried the brownies, sugar cookies, and snickerdoodles....yum! The sugar cookies remind me of my mom's Christmas Cookies that I've been missing so much. Without a lot of free time for experimenting with baking...I have found them a wonderful treat for special...

Spinach Turkey Burgers 15 - 20 minutes. ..... I found them through Racheal Ray..........quick and yummy --- I add minced garlic to mine..........serve with oven roasted potatos (or chips...

    Maybe the "flower pots" with the lollipops could be "planted" in brownies. They would look like dirt and could be cut into a round shape with a simple cookie cutter. Anyone have an idea for the licorice "handle" of the easter baskets? Thanks!

    If you're in NOVA try Five Guys Burgers. Their Fries are gluten-free and you can order a bunless burger. It comes wrapped in foil. Yummy but messy. -- and their burgers don't seem as greasy as other fast food places..... Chick Fil A also should have gluten-free fries -- and you can get Grilled Chicken sandwich - minus the bun - with their ranch dressing...

    I just found this mix at my store. I made them with chocolate chips and some cinnamon sugar on top. They were good, but it seemed like without my mix-ins they would be more biscuit-like....I couldn't tell how sweet they would be without the chocolate. Has anyone used these as a "sandwich" biscuit instead of a muffin? I might actually use that for...

    Jules Thin Crust also sells their gluten-free dough if you want to take it home...the best part is all of the gluten-free toppings to try! I have too many favorites to count. They are also expanding further...might be in NJ soon! I, too, eat at PF Changs in Princeton and a little further South on Route 1 near Quakerbridge mall is a Cheeburger Cheeburger...

    Thank you all for your feedback! After a phonecall to the doctor - and a reminder that I have celiac, he agreed that I should take a higher dosage, although I'm still not sure that it's high enough given the level of my deficiency. I have a phone call in and an up-coming appointment scheduled with my GI to get his take on the low Vit D........I've been...

    Thank you, thank you ! We would like to conceive, so I'm hoping to resolve ASAP. Doc wants me to take 400 units/day for 2 months and then retest. The prenatal I had purchased a while back has that much D in it, it turns out, so I'm going to take that now. Also getting appts with GI and follow-up with GP to make sure that 400 will do the trick. ...

    I've just gotten back bloodwork that shows I am Vitamin D deficient. The doc wants me to take supplemental vitamins for a couple of months and then re-test my levels. Is anyone taking or aware of a Vitamin D pill that is gluten-free? I am also looking for items to add into my diet that will help improve my Vit D. Not sure what's causing the...

    Mmmmmm. Chicken Lettuce Wraps Changs Spicy Chicken Singapore Street Noodles Chocolate Dome I go between these choices every time I go. I love them so much, I haven't had to branch out to try anything else. I always take some extra $$ and get an order of Changs Spicy Chicken to go. It reheats for lunch very well for a couple of days - and I never...

    Here's a list of some light/entertaining/kept my interest movies Amelie - great, cute! Fever Pitch (if you want a light-hearted nothing heavy movie, it's cute - but predictable -- if you don't like Drew Barrymore, don't bother) Breach (spy thriller - very good) Sweet Home Alabama (cute love story) Any newer animated movie (like Incredibles...

    Our first instinct when first gluten-free was mexican - taco night, nacho night, tostadas, etc. etc Breakfast for dinner (Scrambled Eggs, bacon/sausage, fresh fruit) ---- on allrecipes.com there is a great/easy recipe for Oven Baked Scrambled Eggs - YUM! If you have the time, search through the previous posts, here. There are endless suggestions and...

    I think I'm actually ready for the holiday, but I'm certain I'm forgetting something! All you central PA folk, I grew up in Mechanicsburg and your posts have brought back a flood of memories! At the time, it was a wonderful family-oriented neighborhood and we seemed to always have at least SOME snow at Christmas time. This year has certainly flown...

    Definitely apples. I looooove apples with cheese Maybe some chebe bread? celery crumbled sausage pieces - if the vegetarians don't mind. grapes are good with cheese also

    Jules can get pricey, you're right. But their ingredients are all organic, so I can justify the expense. Nice to hear about Manny's my sister graduated from Lafayette in spring - had I known there was gluten-free pasta near by I would have definitely made her take me there! Maybe she and I will have to visit her alma mater and get some of the yummy...

    It sounds like you have tried your best to approach the teacher......my next route would be the school nurse. Perhaps she could discuss it with the teacher, too. School nurses are wonderful advocates for their students. Good luck.

    There is a relatively easy chocolate fondue type dip (I think I found it on allrecipes.com). It calls for packaged chocolate frosting and sour cream. It's great dipped with fruits, glutino pretzels, marshmallows (and really what ISN"T good dipped in chocolate). Finger food is GREAT for tea parties. You could also do veggies pieces on toothpicks...

    I'm sure they would/could do a pie w/out cheese, if necessary. Some of them are not your typical pie - for example they top one crust with Greek Salad - YUMMY (but that one doesn't re-heat so well). Not sure, either, about website ---- Might be linked from the Doylestown site. If you search "Jules Thin Crust" I'm sure you can find them....Could probably...

    The second store for Jules Thin Crust will open tomorrow in Newtown, PA - Easy shot off of I-95 and not too bad going from Rt 1 to 95 N, either. Great gluten-free pizza --- only NON-gluten-free ingredients are the BBQ sauce and the sausage. All other pizzas/ingredients are gluten-free and yummy thin crust! Have to order a whole pie - no gluten...

    Anyone know if Almond and Peppermint extracts would be gluten-free? McCormick? Another brand? Thanks!

    As a teacher, if this happened in my school, I would freak! I think you were definitely in the right to make them aware of the problem - but even still they may not realize the seriousness. Depending on who planned/coordinated the event, I would CC my letter to the principal, the nurse, the PTO/PTA or other parent group, school volunteers and the...
