Gluten Free Summer Fest

My belly is full of good food that promises to not make me sick after a trip to the Gluten Free Summer Fest. To be able to get a good sampling of the food I highly recommend bringing a friend to share the dishes with. The food was delicious and it was nice to not have...

Gluten-Sharing Toddlers

Gluten-Sharing Toddlers

Eating gluten-free when you have a toddler can prove challenging. My daughter is now very into sharing. She wants to eat off of my plate, and expects me to want to do the same. My daughter does not have a strict gluten-free diet. Because she eats the foods that I...

Server Surprise

Rarely am I pleasantly surprised by restaurants staffs’ understanding of gluten. On many occasions, I am baffled by having to explain things like rice and wheat are not the same. I have become accustomed to over explaining the food I can eat at a restaurant or how it...
