ARCHIVED Mcdonalds For Breakfast?
StrongerToday replied to bluejeangirl's topic in Gluten-Free Restaurants
Well, I keep saying one of these days I should reintroduce cheese and see what happens (it's been 7 months!!). Maybe I'll make my own on a Knickiknick english muffin? It would be close.... er, closer anyway... Funny, there's not much I miss - but this sure is one of them! -

ARCHIVED Celiac Or Not Celiac?
StrongerToday replied to Smitten's topic in Celiac Disease Pre-Diagnosis, Testing & Symptoms
Are you doing a gluten-free diet? Is it helping? -
ARCHIVED Who's From Michigan?
StrongerToday replied to StrongerToday's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
Laura - sorry, I was wrong. It is Zhenders that has the new water park. You can buy a day pass to get in and play or it's free if you spend the night. Bavaian Inn has gluten-free menu and baked goods and has 5 pools - that should keep the kids busy anyway! -
ARCHIVED Good Gluten Free Pie Crusts?
StrongerToday replied to momandgirls's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I find mine at the local grocery store - no special trip needed. It is SOOOOOO good. My mom and I were saying we could just eat the crust, forget the filler. If you make Lemon Meringue save me a piece I've had the Gluten Free Pantry truffle brownies too -- yummmmmy! -
ARCHIVED Nickel Allergy
StrongerToday replied to Fiddle-Faddle's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I have to get nickel free earrings. I rarely wear other jewlery so I'm not sure how I'd react. -
ARCHIVED How Bad Is Wheat In Shampoo?
StrongerToday replied to ErraticBinxie's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
IMO it's just not worth it for me. I freak out about a crumb on the countertop!! There are lots of other good ones out there. -
ARCHIVED Buying A G/f Cook Book
StrongerToday replied to happy4dolphins's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
I like to borrow them from the library. If I really like it (like Bette Hagman's Fast & Healthy) then I'll buy it. -
ARCHIVED Going To Florida!
StrongerToday replied to StrongerToday's topic in Traveling with Celiac Disease
I ordered mine from Gluten Free Pantry -
ARCHIVED Speech Problems - Following Through With Sentences
StrongerToday replied to Lisa's topic in Related Issues & Disorders
I notice it a lot when I'm typing - I'll type an entirely different word in place of what I meant! Also, helping my daughter with her math homework - although I'm sure some of that is the fact that I haven't done "simple" math in my head in years thanks to the calculator and computer. The last time I was glutened, I was driving home from work and before... -
ARCHIVED Four Months & Falling Apart
StrongerToday replied to snoopy's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
Same story here too! I went gluten-free/DF in August and was doing great until the holidays. I did have some external stresses (huge project at my job went "live", my daughter was ill, ex-husband... blah blah blah). I don't think the holidays helped either. I was afraid to eat almost anything, even foods I knew were safe. I starved thru x-mas dinner... -
ARCHIVED Recipes For Leftover Turkey
StrongerToday replied to ebrbetty's topic in Gluten-Free Recipes & Cooking Tips
Again, a great Bette Hagman one and it's perfect for leftovers. I make this weekly now, and just throw in the ingredients so they may not be an exact measurement - but if you like more of one ingredient use more, or less if you prefer: Leftover chicken or turkey, chopped or shredded (I use about 1 chicken breast) cooked wild rice (I use a wild rice blend... -
ARCHIVED gluten-free Birth Control Pill
StrongerToday replied to Jen H's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
You could try taking it at bedtime or with food if it's upsetting your stomach. -
ARCHIVED gluten-free Birth Control Pill
StrongerToday replied to Jen H's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
I take Kariva, (generic for Mircette) it is gluten-free as well as Seasonale (made by the same company). I take it because during the off week you still get a low dose of estrogen and it helped a lot with the headaches i would get during that week. -
I know I'd like one - I tend to be typing fast only to realize later how sloppy it looks.

Judy - yes, sadly, soybean oil has always been in mayo. Until now!! You'll be happy to know that Hellmann's has a canola mayo out, I've got it right here - it's very good too. Ingredients are canola oil, water, whole eggs and egg yolks, vinegar, salt, sugar,lemon juice, natrual flavors, calcium disdium edta (used to protect quality).

ARCHIVED Lunch Suggestions
StrongerToday replied to jackie4's topic in Parents, Friends and Loved Ones of Celiacs
Go out and get a cool looking thermos. (If you're putting hot stuff in it, let the thermos sit with hot water for 10 minutes before you fill it, vice versa for cold stuff). That way she could bring safe soups or broth, gluten-free mac & cheese, noodles, etc. Or fruit salad, egg salad, etc. If she's avoiding dairy (which might be a good idea) try... -
ARCHIVED I Hate I Hate I Hate...
StrongerToday replied to penguin's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I hate that my boss is a hypocrite! I hate that avacado's go off so quickly and I end up wasting half of it usually. I hate that some days I live life thru my stomach. I hate the alarm clock!! -
ARCHIVED Who's From Michigan?
StrongerToday replied to StrongerToday's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
We're going there next weekend for an overnight family thing, staying at the Bavarian Inn because they just opened up a new indoor water park! The restaraunt has a gluten-free menu (another reason we're going there). I'll let you know when I get back. And I didn't know about the food fair - can you send more info? Thanks!! -
ARCHIVED Lactaid Anyone?
StrongerToday replied to ErraticBinxie's topic in Introduce Yourself / Share Stuff
There's also a product out called Digestive Advantage - you take just one pill a day, you do not have to take one with every meal. The product is gluten-free - I called to verify it. I tried it a few months ago as I was retesting dairy, but still had some gas. I do play to retry it soon. -
ARCHIVED Tuna And Syrup
StrongerToday replied to BamBam's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
The Polar tuna is just the tuna, water and salt - no oil or soy. The Progresso was just olive oil I beleive - I didn't buy it, the Polar was much cheaper. -
ARCHIVED I Hate I Hate I Hate...
StrongerToday replied to penguin's topic in Coping with Celiac Disease
I think that's called a "cranial-rectalitis" -
ARCHIVED Gluten&dairy Free Chocolate
StrongerToday replied to Rae's topic in Gluten-Free Foods, Products, Shopping & Medications
My dad got me a Valentine's Box of chocolates from the Chocolate Emporim. It's all gluten-free, casein free, dairy free, soy free and corn free! (alas, the price is far from free but well worth it!!) Open Original Shared Link It was so nice to pick from a variety of treats in one box too! Sorry - that link was for the passover page. Which...
