How the Blog was Born

Hi, my name is Geri and I'm a reformed Gluten Eater. I've been Gluten Free for over 4 years now, and I'm hanging on! In fact I'm such a Gluten Free fanatic that I'm sure I irritate my friends with all my "this is why gluten is bad for you" talk! But I have had a few friends want to jump on the wagon with me, so this is for them. I decided it might be easier to have my recipes in a place where they could get them instead of waiting for me to email them!! And it gives me a venue to talk all I want about the evils of gluten, and traditional medicine, and artificial sweeteners and so on and I will never know if you tune me out!! So that is How the Blog was Born. Whether it dies or not...we shall see....well I don't think you can kill one of these things, so I guess it's here to stay. If you want some ideas and recipes on how to eat Gluten Free, and how to keep your kids and yourself out of the doctors office then feel free to join me!! And if you have things to share, please comment and I'll add it on!!





Enjoy the Journey!!

Cookbook

"LIFE TASTES GOOD AGAIN" !!  That is the name of my FAVORITE gluten free cookbook.  It is by Kirsti Kirkland & Betsy Thomas , Eating Gluten Free, LLC.  I found it at Jakes Gluten Free Store on Fairview between Eagle and Cloverdale.  I don't know if you can find it online.  but this is where my recipe is for my waffles, the best chocolate cake you've ever had, german pancakes, and more!!  This is where I got my bread recipes and tweeked them just a little!!  The waffles are great!  I haven't yet found a good way to make pancakes, because it takes longer to cook gluten free flours, and so they don't always get done in the middle!  So I use the pancake recipe but make waffles out of them!  Then they get done and they are great!!!  My 12 year old daughter that snubbs her nose at gluten free food makes them almost everyday for breakfast and loves them!!

The recipes I make my own, I will put on the blog, but if I don't change them then I didn't feel it was right to copy them and put them in here!!  So get the book!!  It's worth it!! (It was $16!!)

I also have found lots of recipes online.  It's a little more risky, but the more you experiment the better you will get!!  There are millions of recipes!  Just google "gluten free recipes" and they will never stop!!
Good luck!!
