I can totally relate to the bagels and breadsticks! We've been celebrating Passover and this matzoh is just not cutting it anymore. Good luck, tomorrow will be a GREAT day!

We really like Brian Regan! Sorry you're having to deal with food allergies! That's rough!

Sorry you have to deal with food allergies, that stinks. We did a 6 month elimination diet one year for my kids. It was really hard. Ezekiel bread gave you problems? That's lousy. Do you have a Trader Joe's? We found acceptable foods there at an affordable price. I don't recall which ones though.
Keep looking on the sunny side Jenny!

I found the page where Trader Joes has lists of thier foods for a number of things. There is a gluten free list, a vegan list, and a few more. Here it is if it would help.

I had to watch the video to find out what the H word is. :) I didn't really hear it...he kinda muttered.

Is this diet change just for you, or the kids, too?

Lori and Jen,

thanks for the sympathy!!

Lizzie, yes I was surprised that Ezekiel bread gave me problems.

THANK YOU so much for the trader joe list!! This will be so helpful! My local health food store has shelf labels for gluten free which is very helpful, but TJ's is easier on the pocket book.
thanks! :)

OC Mom,

yeah, I didn't think it stuck out, but I thought I should mention it in case anyone was offended.

the diet is for me, not the kids. I'm having a real hard time with it. I'm not hard and fast with it yet, I want to see the Dr. first and be tested, but I know making some changes now will help me feel better.

had pizza for dinner last night, how fast the mighty fall...

Our family is a couple of months into being gluten free and dairy free. We have finally found a few convenience foods that I can lean on for the more stressful days. But eating out is still VERY hard. Restaurants use some of the weirdest ingredients. I do have some recipes on my food blog I could send you if it would make it easier.

My son is intolerant to Gulten and it was a tough adjustment to make at frist but now we don't even think about it. We eat a lot of veggies, beans, rice, that type of stuff and if you can make some really tasty baked goods using different flours you just have to play around with different things till you get the hang of it. It is amazing the difference in my son since going off gulten. I would suggest giving it a try. We saw a difference in him with in a few days. Good luck!!


I'm glad I found your blog today:)

Jennifer,

I can imagine that eating out would be crazy-hard! I went to a burger place the other night and considered bringing my own buns! I need to get tested still, I don't really know yet if I have a real problem or a sensitivity or what.

I will come by and see your food blog! What a cool thing to do!

Maura,

so glad you left a comment so I could visit your blog, I enjoyed it very much and your son is very, very cute!

believe it or not, our dog is allergic to rice, so I have gotten good at reading labels for dog food and dog treats!! Rice is in almost everything for dogs!!

it's a crazy, crazy world these days!
