  3. GLUTEN-FREE CELEBRITY LIST - Glutenista Gluten-Free: Making Gluten-Free Fabulous! http://t.co/2go7zfN via @glutenista

  4. All I can say about the Rachael Ray Cookbook, 365 and No Repeats! (written in a slang-laden, simplicity-encouraging, style that caters (pardon the pun) to User-Friendliness), is that RR has forgotten a few things now that she's ubiquitously uber famous: We don't have sous chefs to chop, dice, and julienne everything, so it doesn't take only 35 minutes prep...
  5. Show your support for a gluten free labeling law in a letter to the FDA. http://t.co/HVpJZXb

  6. I made the gluten free Rice Krispies Treats and my friend and fellow blogger, Katja, made her own souped up version. Read more about what we made and view pictures here. I also wrote what happened when I brought them to the potluck. Since Marines don't always get to use their leave (vacation days), instead of taking a vacation this year, I visited family...
  7. New Digs! Southern hospitality is alive and well in Atlanta: neighborhood barbeques, strangers who chat and wave, and amazing food everywhere! We've been officially "peached". The peach jam, peach salsa, and peaches are all fabulous, but here's what else I've been dining on (while maintaining the ten pound weight loss I just achieved): <b>Gluten...
  8. I hope you mean a bar you eat, not a place to drink at? Lol. Anyway, you'll probably find lots if you check the "forum" section of this site and look under gluten free products, or even type it in the search box. Personally, I hated Lara Bars when I first tried them, but I have since found that I love certain flavors- peanut butter and...
  9. Katz Gluten Free has a promotion where if you pay for the shipping ($8 for me), they'll send you afree sampler box of gluten free baked goods. All of their stuff is dairy and nut free, for those who need that. For me, I like nuts- the people and the food- because they add flavor and texture to life! So, I sweetly asked my Marine to get out...
  10. Dear Newly Diagnosed Celiac, Gluten Free Living is a Journey... Try to remember-it's the rainy days that help us appreciate the sunny ones. Maybe reading gluten free books, blogs, or message boards could help validate your feelings and give you eating ideas. Sometimes, your mind will jump to plenty of excuses of why you can't or why the ideas seem unrealistic...
  11. My Marine was committed to a time-consuming motorcycle safety course all weekend (he has had a retro bike for a year that he isn't licensed to ride yet), so I packed up some <b>Glutino pretzel sticks and crackers</b>, <b>Lara Bars</b> (pb&j, peanut butter cookie), apples, <b>Bunny Organic fruit snacks</b>, and leftover...
  12. Thanks! I love Wegman's! It's kinda far from me, but it's so great for gluten-free! I'll look for the orange circles next time! Wish every market labeled for gluten-free!
  13. Since moving to the DC/Virginia area, Oyamel is a chow champion of mine, since it's near the museums (I left my car in California-no snowy driving 4 me). Not only do I volunteer at one of the Smithsonian Museums, but I set a goal to see as many of the museums/sights in this area as possible during our year here. Let's tangent to a museum/tourist list: So...
  14. I tweeted this product review-Twitter at Gluten Free Bree-My bf's mom gave me a box of Simply Organic gluten-free cocoa brownie mix as part of a gluten free goodie package she mailed me for taking care of her son after his shoulder surgery. It was very easy to mix up, just stir in melted butter and eggs! It's certified organic, meaning the production of...
  15. In the elevator to our hotel room (the cdf conference in L.A.), a woman commented on the Udi bread she spied sticking out from my bag on the bellman's luggage cart. This was my marine's first clue that "people like ME" were swarming the hotel. My beau learned SO much from the speakers (Dr. Peter Green, Dr. Sheila Crowe, Dietician, Shelley Case, and Cook...
  16. HI,

    This is awesome to hear about the soups. I like the potato soup at chili's, well that was until the other day we found a rubber band in it. Not sure how it got there, but was quite put off by it. Chilis and red robin do also have a great gluten-free menu. Thanks it is always great to find new tips!

  17. My new favorites: Glutino Gluten Free Organic Bars (chocolate & peanut)-smaller than a "traditional" granola bar, but taste fabulous and travel well. Progresso Canned soup (low sodium chicken and wild rice)- $1.25 a can at Target with pop-off lid I don't really like creamy soups, but they have many gluten free soups, and many are LABELED gluten free...
  18. Thanks so much for over 20,000 blog hits! I'm so humbled that you love my musings...or love to laugh at them...or laugh AT ME...or love to HATE me, lol. As you know, I enjoy singlehood more than the average person, so here are some of the romantic DON'Ts I've had to endure over the years from well-intentioned men (I'm recognizing their effort,really) attempting...
  19. Totally Gluten-Free turkey day again, but this time at my newly purchased house with my Major's mother and my mom&stepdad all in from Florida We did lots of fix-it stuff on my new house (bank repo) Parents woke at 4am (FL time 7am) and went to 24 hr Wal-Mart to buy me "appropriate" dishes and silverware (they said mine isn't heavy enough) for my belated...
  20. 6:00 P.M. Church of Nazarene, Redlands, CA
  21. I had coconut cake, cupcakes, and brownies for my birthday. My best friend was going to be in Vegas for my bday, and so she invited me and I invited my other friend from New Orleans. It was so fun. My Major was still away, so it was perfect for just girls. My bff carried 2 bakery boxes on the plane from Texas! (From Lil' Aussie Bakery in San Antonio...

  23. Kinnickinnick gluten-free Graham Crackers + chocolate + marshmallows = Yum to the Oh Yeah! I never thought my trigger would be tripped by a plain ol' graham cracker! I have yet to master the way I got it once to be soft and warm in the microwave. They are no where near chalky. So nice. Unfortunately, I also laid my hands on some Andean Dream Quinoa...
  24. Hi Brendy,

    Was surfing around on internet and found your comments on Celiac convention in Pasadena...I guess you didn't make it to our booth (Tia's Bakery)....also, I was reading about your trip to LA and Whole Foods - you didn't find our product there either! Please search us out....we're in the refrigerated bakery section. Marilyn

  25. Most people who feel badly due to food, enjoy not eating. When one feels so much better, the last thing they want to do is put food in their mouth and risk feeling badly again. Hence, anorexia is a side effect of celiac, and probably other food intolerance issues. Be careful. My brother just did a 40 day fast (drinking only fruit smoothies) and he is...
