A Good Idea

Just thought I'd pass along an idea that worked for us last Christmas.

When kids are invited to decorate holiday cookies and there is no time to bake a gluten-free batch, here's a quick solution:

Purchase a box of Pamela's Shortbread or Lemon Shortbread cookies. Get a tub of Duncan Hines Homestyle vanilla frosting and some Betty Crocker decorating gels and colored sugar. Be sure to pack plastic utnesils for your child to use (and not share!) That's the hardest part!

wow! Great tip. Thanks. I have tried to find mainstream frosting that was gluten free and was unsuccessful before. This makes it so much easier at this time of year. Sandra :D

Duncan Hines "Cream Cheese" frosting is also gluten-free....the most amazing frosting I've ever had! Everyone I know who has tried it has loved it...it doesn't actually taste like cream cheese, of course...I don't really know how to describe it. I never bothered to find out about the rest of Duncan Hines frosting or any other frosting -- I like that one flavor enough to stick with it :P

      Thank you for the warning. I get blood tests twice a year to check where I stand with the vitamins I regularly take, so I appreciate the extra reminder. I know some vitamins don’t build up but now I will watch the B6 for sure.

      High dosage of B12 gave me life.

      I think you would do well to take a high potency B-complex such that you get more balanced dosage across the spectrum of B vitamins. They work in concert.

      Around 5 years ago I visited Tokyo, and luckily had my sister in law with me who is from there, otherwise it would have been more difficult. The bottom line is that there are tons of naturally gluten-free food options there, but you need to be able to communicate your needs to restaurant staff. Here is a gluten-free restaurant card for American visitors in Tokyo. It includes a request for a gluten-free meal and mentions common gluten-containing ingredients to avoid, like soy sauce and miso. English: Thank you. Japanese:   You can also download the Google Translate app, and besides being able to help you speak with people there about this, it has a camera app that translates Japanese text to English in your camera, so you can use it when shopping in a supermarket.

      Be careful about how much B6 you take, as it can cause issues if you take too much of it over time.
