Judy Does it Again!
June 29th, 2009 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized 1 Comment »

It’s no secrete that I Heart Judy G Pizza.
Judy G Pizza is possibly the best frozen GF pizza to ever grace this planet. Fresh ingredients, tasty sauce, crispy but not crumbly crust – perfection. Such great pizza that we even dedicated a night to it in our house. Pizza Wednesday’s – because really who wants [...]

Now Do You Believe Me?
June 26th, 2009 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized 2 Comments »

The most common question I’m asked is: Why don’t you post recipes?
The most common answer I give is: Because I’m the most anti-domestic person in the world.
Even though I’ve said this a million times, people still try to convert me. Saying things like: “it’s easy, try it” and “you can’t be that bad” don’t help. [...]

Where the Cool Celiac’s Hang Out!
June 24th, 2009 | caitlin | Categories: Uncategorized 6 Comments »

Fiance and I have a thing – we only travel to cities that have a great walkable design, and that host great music festivals. Yes, we’re Urban Studies nerds and we have great taste in music.  You can be jealous of us, it’s okay!
Calgary: Walkable design – yes (where we live, but probably not in [...]

Fridge Cleaner Meal
June 23rd, 2009 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized No Comments »

Fridge Cleaner Meal (FCM):  The act of pulling all bits and bobs of food from one’s fridge and attempting to make a meal out of it. This act is usually performed the day before payday, and/or the day before grocery shopping.
Yesterday was an FCM night for us. Our fridge had been taken over by the most random [...]

It Works!
June 19th, 2009 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized 5 Comments »

It works, it works, it works.
One of my goals with Glutastic was to create a space for sharing. Living GF is all about knowing. Knowing where to find good GF products, what new GF products are available, and knowing that in groups we are more likely to succeed then we are as individuals. If I [...]

Who knew?
June 17th, 2009 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, The Dish, Uncategorized 2 Comments »

Who knew that Corn Grits and Polenta are the same thing? Seriously, who knew? I sure didn’t.
Is my anti-domestic goddess showing?
Meh, it’s no surprise that I have no idea what I’m doing in the kitchen. I clean one like no one’s business, but cooking in it – that’s a whole other story!
Anyhow, like I said [...]

Bueno Galleta

Bob’s Red Mill has done it again – they’ve rolled out some new great GF corn products. And one of those new products is GF Corn Flour.
So, how does one talk about corn flour? Saying things like: “It’s a nice yellow colour”, “It has a very nice flour’esq consistency”, and “The label is really cool”, [...]

Yummy Tamari

Yummy Tamari Soy Sauce!
So, what is the difference between a regular soy sauce and a yummy soy sauce? Salt. I don’t know if you’ve ever felt this way – but some soy sauces are simply too salty for my taste. I’m not a big salt fan, I find it drys out my mouth and takes [...]

Cheese?
June 10th, 2009 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized 5 Comments »

This whole, “no lactose” thing is a bit of a challenge. Alternatives are not always great substitutes. We’ve tried some cheese alternatives and although they look like they would do the trick…they don’t always live up to my expectations. (when I cheat, and have lactose/dairy, I blame everyone else for not making good alternatives)
Have any [...]

Happy Birthday Fiance.

Today is Fiance’s Birthday!
Happy Birthday to Him.
On this very special day, I’d like to say a few things:
Fiance, thank you for living this GF life with me. I know that you miss your gluten and I know that you miss your cheese. So on your birthday, I’m going to buy you a pizza. You’re welcome.
Fiance, [...]
