    My household consists of myself (gluten-free) and my hubby, 2 cats and 3 dogs... other than the very tiny cupboard I allow my hubby to have for his "cant live without these gluten items" which ONLY come out when I am not home and he is restricted to certain pots and pans along with a very tiny excuse for a countertop... my house is gluten-free, the cats...

    My first "foray" into houseguests came just last fall, and to do it up right I have 5 gluten eaters staying in my 98% gluten-free home, basically because the "extra's" were staying with us for multiple days I took each aside and explained very carefully the "why" and how.... they all were actually amazed at the meals I served, some actually said NO! dont...

    ah yes and lets not forget all that added insurance required as well, yes very expensive indeed Might I suggest instead making a cookbook using your recipes? No gov agency required or added insurance

    Well, not knowing the restraunts in the areas you plan on traveling to I can't help you there, however I can offer the following: I am a railroad engineer and due to this fact I have to be prepared to be gone from home 8-48 hours at the ring of my phone, I NEVER know how long I will be gone until I answer my phone That being said, I have to be able...

    Yeah pretty much most times "life stinks" but you also have to look at it from other viewpoints.... Each of us has our thing happen to us, with us its celiac disease, GI and/or other food issues... but think of what we are not dealing with..... A friend of mine recently got out of a truly horrible marriage only to find out he has terminal cancer...

    I recently went to my doctor and had them order blood test to check my levels, but then I didn't exactly "ask" I told... there is a difference Take charge of your health its your life and your money they are using to play gold at the country club if they dont want to do what you want time to send a different doctor to play golf!

    I add what the recipe calls for but whenever I use gluten-free flour I add the appropriate amount of xantham gum/guar gum depending on the recipe... For each cup of gluten-free flour add: breads: 1 heaping teaspoon cakes: 1/2 teaspoon cookies: 1/4 teaspoon muffins: 3/4 teaspoon pizza: 2 teaspoons

    Not so much of a "freezer" recipe but its very easy to make up a quickie stew... freeze meal size portions of chicken and beef (seperatley of course) When you feel like a quick stew pour in a box of gluten-free beef or chicken broth add the appropriate meat, a potato or two, then add a few frozen mixed veggies near the end.... I also sometimes add a...

    You pretty much have proven you have it to me.... and seem to have done plenty of research to prove it to yourself..... so..... why do you sound like you dont believe it yet? And who says you have to give up pizza and beer? They do make gluten-free beer now AND I eat pizza all the time, I just dont buy it from my local pizza place but make my own which...

    Isnt that why they were placed on this earth, for us to vent on? oh yeah and to take out the trash

    Personally I wouldn't eat at my "local McDonalds" if it was 100% gluten free, the staff are disgusting and they couldn't get an order right if they were paid $1,000,000,000 to do it! I have heard so many complaints from co-workers about the newest owners lack of caring and ability to control the teenage staff to convince me that years ago I made the right...

    Always remember Doctors are only as smart as the tip of a pin, if they are not led to the correct dtrinking hole they would perish from thirst. Information is not only knowledge but in some cases is the enjoyment of life in general. Dont take everything you are told by a doctor for granted, prove it to yourself in whatever way you can if you cant... then...

    Also dont forget to tell her off after your all moved out, and make sure you use all your colorful 4 letter words

    I truly believe both my mother and sister also need to be on the diet but my sister wont even concider it and my mother is still asking questions but at least she is talking about it, its a step in the right direction.

    Not sure about your suspect list, but I know dairy for me gives me small tummy aches if I eat to much still, if I limit it to a time or two a week it doesn't seem to bother me, but that third time is the kicker (lol pun intended) I would start with the posibility that its a CC issue with prezels and any other food as gluten eater eats a handful of nasty...

    Well, glad you stopped "lurking" I have felt all week I was being watched, now maybe it will stop OK, back to the serious stuff for a bit...... Pity party all week if you want makes no difference to us, other than we want to help you get thru this and until you decide your ready for the long haul not much we can do but wait.... good thing we are...

    Also females should have extra calcium as well as what was mentioned in the above post... I found Nature Made though drugstore.com you can view the labels online before ordering and the ones I take did say gluten-free on the label, did however doublecheck them when they arrived as well

    OK, I am sick to death of the same old snacks in my cupboards so....... I am in a baking mood and I need ideas! I vented on my hubby yesterday about my serious lack of snacks he is ready and willing to help but I dont have any recipes! I know there is a recipe for something simular to "cheese-its" but cant find that and have been looking for hours!...

    Many companies put the "produced in a facilty" portion to protect themselves from this sue hungry world we live in I think.... envision what would happen if they didnt add that disclaimer to their products and someone died because of CC ? How many millions of dollars would the family be able to sue for? I agree and practice what was stated before,...

    Open your mouth and let your mind suggest what YOU think it may be and if you can print out anything for symptoms etc bring it with you........ Dr's are 90% stupid and the other 10% is more worried about the insurance check not getting here in time to pay for his next round of golf

    First off sorry your having a rough time with the neighbor kid.... but I would bet money his FINGERPRINTS are alllllllllll over the gas cap!!!!!!!!!! violation of probation puts his butt back where he belongs!!!!!! I also agree with the "presence thing" someone mentioned earlier, dont even have to perfect the "stare" just make sure anytime "the...
