New York Times Article On gluten-free Restaurant
Here's a good article on a restaurant owner in NY who has taken gluten-free to heart: Open Original Shared Link JOSEPH PACESummer Slump :(
July was terrible for me last year and it's the same again this year. Where to begin...well, amazingly enough, I can make an entire LIST! 1. I didn't get the promotion at work. 2. They didn't throw out my duplicate traffic light camera ticket ($387) 3. My grandma wrote me a letter saying thanks for taking care of her during my visit, but no more gifts- even for Christmas, and btw I HATE YOUR MOTHER and I never want to see her again (My mom's moving to FL away from my gram in WI- gram not takinIt Is Not A Disease!
All,Seems an odd thing for a person who works as a writer and video director to be finding a home/blog spot on a website dedicated to a disease. Celiac "disease" however is a syndrome with multitude of symptoms, is widely mis-diagnosed and largely untreatable. Other than avoidance of gluten, the white-coated inDoctrinates of the pharmedical system can offer nothing beyond the masking of symptoms with expensive, dangerous drugs. They have no interest in us once we are diagnosed as the lack ofNew Celiac- Am I On Right Track
How long does it take for the symptoms to go away so you know youThe Company That Could Care Less...
I am SO incredibly frustrated right now with one particular skin care company that I may end up screaming. Oh what the heck, I AM going to scream, "AAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH"! Well, that was mildly cathartic. So here's the deal. I am the manager at an upscale day spa in the San Francisco Bay Area. We carry three skin care lines and one makeup line in my office. These are both retail and professional lines. The Monday after I was diagnosed I went into work and called thLiscense Plates And Mother In Laws!
I have spent the last several days working, taking care of the kids, and helping out with my mother in law who had a mild stroke last Sunday. No jokes about how she is trying to poison me with flour today...it would probably be in poor taste! On a positive note though, I got a package this morning from my mother (she lives in a different state). In it was a liscense plate frame for my car. I almost peed my pants I was laughing so hard. The top part of the frame says "Seitan" and the bottGluten Filled Tuesdays!
Ah Tuesday...the day of the week that my husband and kids look forward to the most. Why, you may ask? Easy, it is what my son calls their "Gluten Filled Tuesday". This is the day of the week that the three of them go out and eat whatever they want for dinner and do not have to worry if it is safe for me, or if there is anything on the menu I can eat, and to indulge in the things that we just don't get at home anymore. For instance, last week it was deep dish pizza. Tonight, it's Chinese.Ugh! Contamination.
Let's see, it is 12:30 in the morning and I have to be up and bright eyed and bushy tailed for work tomorrow morning. Why am I up? Because I have stomach cramps that are making me feel like I am about to give birth. Since 7:00 last night. At this point I find myself praying for D...at least then it will get out of my system and the flipping cramps will stop. Went to dinner at a local Vietnamese resteraunt that is one of the few places I have been able to eat at since my dx. Ordered whatAfter Weeks Of Reading...
...I finally signed up here and have spent the last couple of days trying to figure everything out! The information I have recieved from the posts and blogs have been incredible. Thank you for that everyone! My story, condensed and in a nutshell, is this: I have had digestive problems for probably 11 years or so. Nothing too serious, just the occasional flair up of what I called my "sensitive stomach". Almost 5 years ago I had an attack that lasted for about 4 months. In that time I loDapsone Eye Vision Side-effect

Celiac Specialties sent me the cinnamon rolls finally and they are SPECTACULAR!! SOOO delicious! The tortillas (gluten-free option for flour tortillas) are ok, but defeat the point of a flour tortilla since they don't bend very easily...I made it into a quesadilla, but folding it into a burrito would probably be impossible. I also LOVE the apple streudel from C.Specialties. Perfectly delectable. Since I've been traveling and dating here are some other eating out experiences I've had-- no glutNewbie - Another One
Hi there everyone. As titled, I'm totally new to this and reading more and more entries and starting to feel panicked. I've been trying to go gluten free for two months and have not found much improvement other than that my condition is now manageable - ie: I can go back to work and be with friends. I'm still tired and often cloudy and not sure what sets that off. I'm now noticing that I should be looking at soaps, shampoos, dish soap and the like? Is this true if we're not ingesting shThe Celiac Family
My nephew got married this past weekend. All of my bros. and my sister, and all but two of my mother's siblings attended. The wedding was in Longview, so my out-of-town relatives came here for a couple of days, then we all drove to Longview for a weekend of parties. My brother and his wife, parents of the groom, paid for our hotel rooms for the weekend. They also invited us all to the rehearsal dinner. My sister-in-law was very careful about the menu and quizzed the chef thoroughly aboutJuly 01, 2007
wow, I'm losing weight finally! I'm down to 166 from a prednisone high of 186. I want 40 more at least. We bought a camper The day after we bought it we took it out for a test run. Very successful. It's so nice because we can vacation and I can cook and control the food now. DH still goes out and gets his bread and claims a little won't hurt him. I can't get him to understand that he needs to not eat ANY of it. Next week we leave for a long Colorado vacation. I'm not taking anBack Again
Life is crumbling. Funny how when you think things are peachy, things all of a sudden end up pear shaped. I have two sons in Sydney, Australia, they have been there for coming on 10 years. Their father, my ex husband has been a major part in their lives over there. I thought things had been fine, they have both been working, one son even managed to set up a business on his own. But life gets tough even for them. It now seems the youngest who has been unemployed for a little whileGood Eats
They took second helpings! The Japanese Rice Coconut Pudding turned out fine. It looked and tasted like oatmeal with cinnamon in it. I guess, since oatmeal isn't something we get to eat, it was a happy coincidence. Although I did read about some type of oat that has a low enough level of gluten.... I have been dealing with somewhat of a dilemma. The detective calls himself finicky. He doesn't have the affinity for fresh fruit and veggies like I do (lots of men are that way, aren't they?

Tom's Party is over, I'm glad and it seemed to go ok? Everyone liked it I was good too at the dinner, I didnt have time to eat anything lol BUt Some of the respones I received from my test results here and somewhere else, t hey said that I wasnt gluten-free, So they made me think I was not GS and I had some bagels and a hero, now I am sooo sick and in pain.

Is it just me, or is the board gray and black now? I don't like it.Traveling Again
*Drum roll* Did she make a long weekend trip in Washington D.C. without getting glutened?NO. Positives: there was a WHOLE FOODS where they had an omelette lady we took advantage of for breakfast and we bought stuff for picnicking! I ate at Joe Theisman's restaurant (salad and bunless roast beef) and it was FANTASTIC. So, we ate there the next night, and...glutened! But, I have to admit the house balsamic vinegrette dressing I tried this time looked suspect, and I dared to eat chocolate mousseDoctor Search
