For the first time in a long time, Fiance and I had a Saturday morning that was remotely free of plans. By ‘remotely’ I mean: No scheduled activities or plans made prior to a month ahead of time. This is a big deal to us. This never happens. So of course, we had to make [...]

Turns out that I am not the only Celiac who’s attempted to eat at the Saddledome! And even more importantly – I’m not the only Celiac that has found this undertaking IMPOSSIBLE. One of our great readers took her mission directly to the Customer Service Department and here is what they said: Thank-you for taking [...]

SERIOUSLY

Here is a word that often comes flying out of mouth – SERIOUSLY. What I love about this word is that it can have 5 different meanings, all dependent on the inflection of your voice. So why am I telling you this? Because, after reading a short story, you’re going to click on a link [...]

Cookies vs Flowers
March 20th, 2009 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized No Comments »

I think only a Celiac can say that they would take cookies over flowers any day. Flowers die, cookies fill your stomach- where is your alliance? Mine is with my stomach. Cookie Occasions offers gluten free! This means that our loved ones can suck up with cookie deliveries instead of flowers. (Thanks for the link [...]

Flames vs Stars. Caitlin vs Hot Dogs. Flames 2, Caitlin 0. We were lucky enough to get some great tickets to the hockey game last night. And really what wasn’t there to be excited about? Great company, we went with a killer photographer we know. A great game, the Flames won. And the sweet smell [...]

Raisin Bread.

Raisin Bread! I found and made raisin bread! While at Whole Pay Check Foods in Vancouver, I stumbled upon Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Raisin Bread mix. Could not walk away. This was genius. Raisin bread is a luxury in my world. I love it but can’t eat it fast enough so I rarely buy [...]

It was the Zombies.

I’m a bad blogger. I know I’ve been missing for a few days and you’re all a little unimpressed with my absence. Well, in my defence, I’m a ninny that went on a girls weekend. Girls weekend is self explanatory. The ninny part  needs more discussion. Basically, it boils down to the fact that I’m [...]

Soy Sauce

Soy Sauce. It’s one of those things that can be the bane of every Celiac’s existence. Sometimes it’s GF and sometimes it’s not. The main issuing being that it is often used in sauces and dishes at restaurants – it comes out of no where like a little ninja to ruin what could potentially be [...]

What exactly is gluten free? Does GF mean that there is no gluten in the product? Does it mean that the product is produced in a plant that has never seen a morsel of gluten, EVER? Is it a matter of parts per million (ppm)? These are questions that we all think about. All the [...]
