    I am a finicky eater. I admit it. When I was young, I used to say I didn't like a certain type of food because I just didn't like it. When asked if I had ever tasted it before, I would say no, but even so, I still didn't like the food. (Ok, I still occasionally use this excuse, but I am getting better!) Being diagnosed with Celiac made me expand my food repertoire when dining in and out of the house.

    This past weekend, I was taken to brunch by some family members. Aware of my gluten restrictions, they decided to take me to Draeger's in San Mateo, a wonderful market that not only sells produce, but also has numerous amounts of gluten-free items for purchase! A gigantic banner on the front of their store even proclaims that the store is a supporter of those who are gluten-free.

    On the second level of the store, above the shoppers and tucked away in a little corner...
