Had the best experience and had to share! Not that I have time to be on the internet!

Last year at this time I was sobbing. I could not make sugar cookie cutout and have the cookies keep their shape. Fast forward a year and life is good! I tried the 123 Sugar Cookie Cut out with wonderful results. The trees, stars, bells, santas, and snowmen all kept their shape!

Hez

PS-The cookies tasted good too!

I had only a couple of minutes to research but this is what I found out (keep in mind I was on the internet). It seems that Hood dairy is the company that is licensed to sell/make the egg nog. The funny thing is that on the Hood website you can not find the Southern Comfort Egg Nog. Their brand of regular and light is gluten-free. Sorry I could not help out more.

I would also try putting the dough in the freezer. I did this even with my old gluten filled cookies.

Hez

Stupid question, what are they? Dried fruit, cereal?

Hez

I recently tried a Glutino cheese pizza and really enjoyed it. I am sorry it did not taste good.

Hez

Thanks so much for posting. I was at the liquor store wanting some but unsure. Now I know! Woo Hoo!

Hez

If you can't find the soup here is a link to a easy and somewhat quick recipe. I have posted this many times (sorry for the repeat) when someone needs cream of something soup.

I have the cusinart bread maker that also has a gluten-free cycle. I like it but have only tried mixes in it. My only complaint is that you have to keep it on light crust (not medium or dark) otherwise it burns the bread.

Hez

I also think the website for McDonald's also worries about cc. They cut the chicken into strips on the same board that they cut gluten on.

I usually only get the apples with carmel dip. They come sealed so I know that a silly/incompetent worker did not mess it up.

Hez

I use the recipe on the back of Franks's Red Hot Sauce. It is really simple. You bake or fry the wings them dump them to coat in the hot sauced mixed with butter.

Hez

I picked up a small jar of dough enhancer by Authentic Foods (it says it is gluten-free). Does anyone use this? I put some in my bread machine with the gluten-free Pantry Sandwhich mix. Just curious what others think about it. I am wondering if I will even notice a difference.

Hez

I have to order the PerkyO's from the internet. No store carries them in my area. Sometimes shopbydiet.com has them on sale.

Hez

I ended up buying the magazine while at the store today. The recipe uses gelatin to "set" the filling. It looks interesting, not sure if I am going to try it.

Hez

Does anyone have a good recipe for a no bake pumpkin pie? I noticed one of the magazines (I should have bought it) had a non gluten-free recipe for a no bake pumpkin pie. The crust was a graham craker, easy to do gluten-free, but I can't remember the filling. Anyone know?

Hez

I like Smart Balance too and it says gluten-free on the label.

Hez

My Honeysuckle turkey said free of gluten on the front! I decided to go with that one because it was cheaper than Butterball and they actually labeled their product.

Hez

This is going to be one of those areas that you have to decide for yourself. I usually decide wether or not to eat something that is made in the same facility based on the company. I know that Amy's tries very hard to reduce cc (cleaning lines however, it does not always work) and so I will eat their food. Other companies that I am not familar with I tend not to eat the products where a facility is shared.

Hez

I have no idea. I am mostly writing to sympathize. I hate trying to figure out what caused me to be sick! Was it gluten, food poisoning, or the flu? I am not a detective.

I hope you feel better soon.

I firmly believe honesty is the best policy. I think the bf should tell his Mom. I also think it would be a great opportunity to call her as well. It is not easy. I'll I have to do is think about how hard it was to cook the first month of my dx. I cc myself countless times.

So maybe you will have to do more to make sure you do not get sick. I have found my mom in law to be wonderful. I think most people when given the chance will treat others with dignity and respect when those qualities have been bestowed upon them.

Hez

I eat them I do read the ingredients and they always look safe.

Hez

I wish I knew the answer to your question. I know the docs suggest getting the shot in October or November. I did not get one while I was pregnant (flu not a problem and pregnant over the summer)! I am sure someone else will chime in soon with an answer!

Hez

I just had that on Saturday night! It was so good. If I remember correctly it is dusted with cornstarch.

Hez

I have a seperate toaster and non stick pans. Otherwise I washed everything really well and continue to use it (I did get rid of my gluteny bread machine and bought a new one). This worked for me however, for many people they bought everything new.

Hez

It took me about 6 months before I noticed the diet helping. Then by nine months I really felt great. I think it just took my body a while to heal (my vili were completely flat). Give your self some time, know that you will make mistakes and keep with the diet.

Hez

This was an issue for me when I was first dx. I finally decided I was the chef and I was in charge! That meant that all dinners would be gluten-free It has worked out great. The kids and dh get their gluten at lunch and breakfast and dinner is gluten-free. No one seems to miss it. You really do need to do what works best for you and your family. Have you told them how you feel? That might help.

Good Luck!
