I am working on my plans for a gluten-free Thanksgiving. In years past, I haven’t had the best attitude about this whole gluten-free thing , so this year I’m determined to at least change the ‘tude. It will only be the seven of us this year—which is also common. Holidays like this really [...]

We’re still snowed in! This snowstorm dumped over a foot of heavy, wet snow on us and we’re all still digging out. The interstate has yet to open as well. I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a large chunk of the interstate to close like it did yesterday in the 15 years that we’ve [...]

It’s time to admit defeat. The GFCF diet just isn’t working for us and we are back to eating our normal diet.
I suppose I would have tried harder if we weren’t also dealing with some new neurological problems in ds1 which, in all likelihood, would not have been corrected following this diet. The neurological problems [...]

We ended up making an unplanned trip to Idaho for a funeral last week so yesterday was the first GFCF day. Since I haven’t had a chance to go shopping, I’m just winging it till next week’s shopping trip.

Out of my freezer/pantry tonight, I used up:
1 bag cooked turkey
2 packages turkey gravy
1/2 bag frozen peas
1 cake mix
the rest of the opened bag of powdered sugar

That’s the plan for today’s GFCF experiment.
Hmm…..I was surfing the internet just now looking for GFCF info on mayonnaise. It appears that Kraft mayo is not allowed since it is made with whey.
I’ll have to come up with an alternative to mayo today. Good thing I collect cookbooks.
I’m back!

Have a great day!
