    I was totally blown away by Chef Dan and the staff at Margartiaville. I'd have ate there every day, unfortunately the group I was with wanted to experiment more. He deserves every bit of business we can send his way... so everyone be sure to check it out! Also, if you're eating in Universal, we had a totally fabulous meal at Mythos. It's a little upscale...

    My daughter (who is not gluten-free) favorite desert is merangue cookies (also called Forgotten Cookies). Sometimes we make the merangue's big enough and put some fresh fruit or ice cream on top of them. Very yummy, very affordable!

    I have found that most products will list it, here are the ingredients for Jergen's Daily Glow Jergens

    We went to Universal in February. The park itself was very helpful and sent me a list of what I could eat and where. My highest recommendation is for Margaritaville in City Walk. The head chef asked me what I wanted, made it, the staff was aware I was coming - he even gave me his personal cell phone number in case our plans changed! They special ordered...

    My (former) foot lotion, hair spray, and shampoo Nacho cheese doritos (esp. when cool ranch is ok) Twizzlers self-tanning lotion soy sauce!

    I take Kavia, which is the generic for Mircette - both are gluten-free

    I just saw a bag in the store and yes they were gluten-free.

    I found some at on on-line grocer (I googled "kraft cheese powder") and got some in a can that's meant to be sprinkled on popcorn, etc. It's the real thing, thank GOd Someone else mentioned to me that since a box is really so cheap, why not just throw out the noodles and use the cheese package? Or could that be a cc issue for you?

    Let us know how it is. my best friend lives in chicago and always wants me to come visit... this might be worth the trip (besides her company, of course)

    Hi and Welcome!! I'm in Ann Arbor, so first let me recommend the Yahoo group for gluten-free Ann Arbor. (If you can't find it let me know and I'll send you the link). You'll find the postings helpful as well as a database of stores, places to eat, etc. As for you tummy problems, I would recommend that you slow down and just take it easy. Don't eat...

    When I first went gluten-free I was starving! My dietitican told me to eat a small portion of nuts at each meal, that I needed the fat in the nuts - I guess it's heavy and sticks around longer in your tummy to make you not feel so hungry. I was not doing many carbs at the time and was a protien junky. Nuts, hard boiled eggs, Lara bars, etc. were always...

    Enjoy your day!!

    Pamela's!! You can try the flour blend or the baking mix works well too.

    I also always bring bread and some peanut butter. Lara bars are good too, a well as other nut/snack mixes. Progresso chicken and wild rice soup is gluten-free and only needs a microwave and a spoon. If you're flying, do not bring liquid medicine on board with you - they took my Pepto last time! It's safe in your suitcase, just not for carryon.

    Technically, even tho it's called "dairy free" it does have casein in it! If you're cooking for someone with a casein sensitivity, I'd check with them to see if they can tolerate cool whip. (If not, just send ME the pie)

    Great ideas!! There are 50 full time staff and 20 part timers. We are planning a day out of the office with lunch too. Everyone does get a $10 gift card as well. I'm looking for more of a personal recognition ideas, while the $10 gift card is nice... we need to show the personal touch. I knew you guys would have some great ideas!

    I've been drafted for our Employee Appreciation Day committee, we're looking for ideas on how to acknowledge staff members and I need some good, inexpensive, suggestions. In the past we've put up a card w/ each persons picture and have people write "thank you for _____" or have the manager get up and say nice things about each person on the team. We're...

    I'm not sure about Mylanta, but Pepto Bismo is good stuff. Rolaids are fine, but NOT the soft-chews. I think Tums are questionable too. I also take Pepcid and that's fine. Welcome to both of you!

    This is just the best!! Thank you for posting!!

    I hate it when my family is digging into something yummy and says "oh, sorry - ha ha, you can't have this". (no, really? Thanks for pointing that out. AGAIN.) I hate that I drool over the thought of a Bacon Egg and Cheese biscuit from McD's That I've burst into tears over an Olive Garden commercial That I have to plan every meal, or be prepared to just...

    I thought I rememered seeing a discussion on when potatoes skins turn green and you shouldn't eat them, right? (I did try to search for the discussion but didn't find it easily) I did eat one yesterday and tried to avoid the skin, last night and today have not been pleasant Or maybe it's the fact that winter has returned and I am so not happy about...

    Feeling so much better - about myself, life in general! Having energy and stamina Being able to explore/take chances - as in walking past a bathroom I can cook! I only eat things I can pronounce now Having people tell me how great I look Namaste brownies warmed up with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce Mexican food and margaritas Making...

    I take Ambien, I called to check and it was gluten-free.

    I would also vote to keep the kids w/ their parents. If they are truly behaving, then they can join you for a bit - but you will have enough to worry about! Also check out theknot.com my friend did this for her wedding and loved it!
