Holy cannoli! This might even be weight watchers friendly!!! *searching for garfava flour*

I use Dove Shape and Definition mousse on my hair. Dove is a unilever company and they clearly label gluten.

Rum is made from sugar cane, and tequila from cactus (agave, if it's genuine) Elonwy: I never thought about vodka and a wheat allergy. Crud.
