When I was surfing today...for more Celiac HELP! I came across this picture. I thought, well...that just about sums it up! Anything with wheat, barley, rye and oats is not for ME! Then I wondered how Christmas was going to be. Here comes the pity party....no pumpkin pie? Dang! No homemade rolls! I guess I will eat ALL the CANDY CANES then...haha!
There is hope...I found a store called AGAINST THE GRAIN, if you live in the SLC area. It's a GF Store, and I mean GF....not one item has gluten. Praise GF:) I bought several items to try and I have to say, they aren't bad. It's been two weeks since my diagnoses and, I think, my taste buds are adjusting. I found some cookies that sounded so yummy, so I bought them! My kids tried them...and tried to say they liked them. But the cookie in the garbage with one bit out of it, gave it away. I don't blame them...I would have a YUMMY Chocolate Chip Cookie instead of GF. But, I'm on a mission to find a GF CCC that tastes just like the regular ones. Even if I have to blend flour myself!
If you know a CCC recipe that's GF and you want me to try it.....email it to me! I will try it, post the results and the recipe on my blog. So, I need your help! It's been two weeks since, maybe longer...I've had a CCC cookie. I'm going through withdrawels!

I had no idea that this store existed! The friend I was talking about with Celiac is sort of an ex-friend, so we don't talk anymore, but we still have a mutual friend, so I will tell her to pass along the information.
I came across your blog on Tip Junkie. I fell in love with it!
I will have to tell my mom. She has Celiac. So does my sister in law. When I was younger and lived at home she would make rice cake, or rice cookies.
Thanks for stopping by my blog! Yours is great!
It's so crazy how many people are affected by Celiac's Disease, and I am always amazed at what people have to do to live with it. Great find!

"Against The Grain" - I like that! I should try to get a T-shirt made up with the line "Celiacs go against the grain!".
I am a fellow celiac - My diagnosis was just confirmed this past week.
My step-grandfather's daughter has a bakery that caters to people with Celiac! Check it out, she lists some of the stores that carry their products! http://www.nutrilicious.com/
I have some of the same issues, it can be difficult to live with this health problem! Best wishes!
Hey Kristen, I was so excited to come across your blog, it is just ridiculous how little we see you guys. I am pleased with your list of GF snacks, it's not everything, but some chocolate to keep you from going crazy
