Perhaps you’ve noticed a lack of the bitching about gluten this week. That would be because my bitching hole has been busy getting rid of anything that might exist inside my stomach. Yep, stomach flu, or maybe some food poisoning, or maybe just some, “You know I hate you, right?” from my evil intestines. But … Continue reading

Ripping Off Cafe Gratitude Gluten-Free Recipes
Before going gluten-free I might have gotten really excited about ripping off say, Outback Steakhouse’s Bloomin’ Onion recipe. But now I’ve got to de-wheat everything and quite frankly, these healthy food spots are some of the few places that get it 100% right. When Cafe Gratitude landed in my neighborhood I truly thought it was … Continue reading
Gluten-Free Mac & Cheese Plus Chicken Fingers
Yowza! That’s some decadent dinner. But I’m all about trying to figure out how to recreate my favorite, really bad for you foods sans gluten. It was only a matter of time before I busted out a macaroni and cheese recipe that makes it worth skipping the boxed varieties. And even Oprah* agrees, this mac … Continue reading
Gluten-Free Cooking Class Might Make a Vegan Outta’ Me
But not today. Happy Memorial Day everybody! Hopefully you had some burgers alongside your gratitude for our nation’s men and women of the military. I did consider skipping the beef in honor of my awesome cooking class I took this weekend with the sisters of Spork. But I’m a weak woman. I’m just getting the … Continue reading
An Apology to my Husband
Dear Husband, As we dined out last night, and I fretted yet again that the waitress would spat in our appetizers of Brussels sprouts and brie (not mixed together, two separate apps, cuz’ that would be gross), I thought to myself: You don’t deserve this. You, who delight equally in chowing down at Jeane-Georges and … Continue reading
Gluten-Free Will Make You Famous, Athletic
Watch out, Gwyneth, you’ve got some g-free competition in the celeb world! There’s so much celebrity gluten in the news this week, that I’m starting to think I’m fashionable. Who knew getting a debilitating disease would be so dang popular? Well, it is. If not disgusting. Elisabeth Hasselbeck may be a conservative, freedom-hating, obnoxious talk … Continue reading
Artisanal Gluten-Free Cooking Is Freaking Awesome
While I wouldn’t be caught dead calling myself a “foodie,” I will say one of my favorite activities is dining out. Or just dining. I’m a huge fan of the food, and especially love trying new things, checking out the hottest new restaurant, food truck, or pancake supper. So yes, this celiac thing has been … Continue reading
Rice Krispies Go Gluten-Free! Life is Crackle-y Again
I’m loving this GF band wagon that’s happening all about the food biz. Kellogg’s Rice Krispies just announced that by this summer, they will offer a lovely gluten-free version of the crispy rice cereal, that seriously, should have been gluten-free in the first place. It’s rice. Of course, as with most processed foods, there is … Continue reading
Tavern on the Green Already Sucked
But now we all know the Central Park eatery (I use the term loosely) employed major douchebags, as a former executive banquet chef (does that mean he really only catered, not chef’d? ahem) Damian Cardone talks about how he loved to screw over people with celiac. Or just “idiots” as he likes to call all … Continue reading
I Hate Being a Pain in the Ass. But.
If you’ve been given the celiac disease diagnosis, you’ve most likely gotten your hands on The Gluten-Free Bibleby Jax Peters. And if you’re like me, you thought, “Lady, there’s no way in hell I’m marching into an Italian restaurant with my own bag of gluten-free pasta and asking them to cook it for me, only … Continue reading
Gluten is my Bitch
