Birthday Time
August 10th, 2010 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized 8 Comments »

It was my birthday this past weekend.
Hurray for me!
I knew going in to this birthday that things were going to be different. Not only am I living in a new apartment, I’m living in a new city, in a new country, with different people and new things. I was also completely aware that this would [...]

Stampede Y’all
July 9th, 2010 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized No Comments »

It is with great sadness that I have to miss this year’s Stampede.
The funniest part about that statement is that I actually haven’t been to the Stampede in almost 3 years. Like most Calgarians who were born and raised in the “Heart of the New West”, I eventually came to a point where I associated [...]

Summer Solstice
June 24th, 2010 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized 6 Comments »

Well Kids, it’s official, the longest day of the year is now behind us.
For some this is not that big of a deal. For Calgarians, this is depressing. Your weather has sucked and the sun seems to be illusive. And for that I am sorry for you. In this, your dark rainy hour, I offer [...]

Thinking About What I Really Need.
June 14th, 2010 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized 6 Comments »

Walking through the frozen section at the Harris Teeter I came across this colourful box with the word: Cheenies on the front.

The voice in my head: This has to be awesome. The box is cool, the name is cool, and it says that they love them in Brazil. I like Brazil. Never been to Brazil. [...]

How to Meet the Fire Marshall
May 28th, 2010 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized No Comments »

Ever wondered how you could meet the local Fire Marshall AND be able to enjoy a sandwich while you were at it?
It’s as simple as baking you’re own bread.
Finding decently tasting, relatively affordable, GF bread has been a bit of a challenge. So in light of these challenges I went where I have gone before [...]

Some Things Stay The Same
April 27th, 2010 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized 2 Comments »

A lot of things have changed since we moved. For example, my ability to read a thermostat. I have no idea what 70 degrees Fahrenheit is. I can’t even spell Fahrenheit, I had to spell check that one. And I also have no ability to gauge distance or directions. Seriously people I’m lost without the [...]

2.0 GPA
April 5th, 2010 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized No Comments »

Dear: Harris Teeter
If you were getting a grade on this, you’d have a 2.0 GPA. The only reason you get a 2 for this, is because you carry Bob’s Red Mill.

Other than that…
EPIC FAIL.
Sincerely,
Caitlin.

P.S. Management explained that it’s okay because there is no cross contamination. Yes that is true. Still an EPIC FAILURE.

For My People At Home
April 3rd, 2010 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket 6 Comments »

I’m homesick today.
There are so many things that I miss about Calgary and Canada right now. I miss my family, my friends (who are the same as family), my dog and my old boss. I miss how the use of a car horn is reserved for celebrating a win in hockey or to indicate an [...]

Epic Cookie Post of 2010
March 14th, 2010 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized No Comments »

Who doesn’t like cookies? Like really people, cookies are awesome. And one of the major downfalls about being a Celiac – aside from the general feeling that the food industry hates you – is that GF cookies are dry, crumbly and just not good.
Well, I was lucky enough to get my hands on some GF [...]

Oreo Shmoreo
November 30th, 2009 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket No Comments »

Who needs Oreos? Well, I thought I did. I thought I needed them to survive.
And then, after diagnosis I learned that Oreos were not a necessity of life – but they sure were important to living a happy life.
Oh well, I adjusted.
And now I don’t need to adjust. All I need to do is make [...]
