Frequently updated.  Resources and a network of local providers, meetups, conferences and food sources.  I will add to this post as often as I confirm new information.  It should be Featured (pinned to the top of the blog).  If it's not, please let me know. General Information on Celiac Disease and related links are found at the bottom of the article (very long page, and yes it needs some reorganization).

Need some advice now that you're diagnosed with Celiac Disease or Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity?  It can be hard to find my older articles that are of special help to those starting out, but I've collected them on This Page for your convenience.
*Due to SARS-Cov2 aka, Coronavirus, aka Covid-19, I have not heard of any meetings taking place since January. This was the schedule before the emergency.  Additionally, you should call restaurants you intend to support and ask how to order.  Many have switched to take out only.  Oddly, the on-demand labs that do routine te…

Raleigh-Durham-Triangle Deserves a Celiac Safe Gluten Free Event

By

I've had a long standing frustration about the GFAF Wellness Event that runs regional conventions.  When I first attended, I thought, "Great, these are curated businesses that cater to my needs."  Not so.  These vendors are businesses that say they cater to my needs, but might not.  And the event isn't safe for Celiacs or people with Wheat Allergy.  

So where are we?  We're back to claims being made that we as consumers with an illness have to carefully evaluate.  I was hoping for an event that would make me feel safe and feel that there is an abundance of options.  Instead, I felt like I was participating in a marketing experiment..  "Will the gluten free customers buy  your claims?"

So let me clearly answer that question.  No.  Not unless your food or product is Celiac safe, and if you claim Wheat Free, it had better be allergen safe.

I'm sure it's difficult to find local Celiac Safe vendors to participate in any  GFAF Event.  But when I we…

How To Shop for Someone Who is Gluten Free

There are so many instances where someone is in need of shopping help.  An accident, an illness or old age can make someone reach out and ask for help, sometimes temporarily.  It's important that we all know how to do that if we have a loved one with gluten sensitivity or Celiac disease.

A dietary restriction like gluten free or allergen free can be very taxing on a family.  It's expensive and very inconvenient.  Sometimes families leave the person in question to fend for themselves, buy their own food, prepare however they want, and keep their own utensils separate.  That's fine while you're young and not injured.  It's better if the whole family knows how to do this, so that people can support each other in times of crisis.  Just think of it as an interesting talent.  
In this presentation, I talk about how to shop at the grocery store for gluten free items.  It's not as simple as just looking for the words gluten free or a certification label.  There are pitf…

The Great Gluten Free Bread Machine Experiment - Part 1

I got a Cuisinart bread machine! What I made first, how it turned out, what I learned..   coming up!  We all bemoan the high price of bread.  Even someone like me, who stays ketogenic most of the time. Bread is just useful. I'm interested in all the ways people bake bread, especially today with Paleo breads, allergen friendly breads, grain free breads, etc.  Bread is soothing and a big part of our culture, so even if you have to have a strange type of bread or if you can only have a 1/4 piece, it's always important.

Before I was Celiac I dabbled in bread baking.  I loved to make Rye breads especially and rosemary multigrain breads.  But those were gluten breads.  To transfer those skills to gluten free takes a lot of work.  I also don't like to follow rules without knowing why. So I don't consider this "baking" yet.  It's an experiment.  Someday I'll feel like it's baking when it becomes routine.  I encourage you to do the same.  Don't worry…

All Together Now #BLM #ReadingList

If you're Caucasian and you haven't seen this video, I strongly recommend pulling up your big girl panties and watching it.  It will hurt.   Yet, you still have to see it.  I think that's the central issue of why white people still tiptoe around black people.  And why black people still barely tolerate us.  And that's exactly the way it should be until society finally rights this wrong.  If you don't know what Rosewood and Tulsa/Greenwood are, please go and look them up.  I went to a great high school and history class totally skipped over that part. I'm betting yours did too.

Need me to back up? Reading this years later?  George Floyd was murdered by police officers in May 2020 (upsetting video) and it took a few days to work out exactly how it happened that he ended up on the ground being kneeled on and unable to breathe.   Protests against police brutality and racism in general erupted immediately around the world.

And if you're a woman, then there's…
