Back To School Lists

Gluten-Free Snack and Candy List-This is a great list to give to teachers, babysitters, daycare or any caretaker of your child during school or afterschool hours when you as a parent are not able to care for your child.  We as parents always want what is best for our children, and especially when dealing with a Gluten-Free child we always want to be there to make sure they are not eating, digesting or playing with anything that has gluten.  However, there are going to be times when we cannot be there.  So a list like this is great to pass on.  Please add to this list that Betty Crocker frostings and GF Mixes are now being offered.

Gluten Free Basics-is a great list re-organizing your life to be gluten-free with tips on what to avoid, how to simplify.  The obvious and un-obvious rules of cross-contamination and where gluten hides.  This list also gives you ideas and planned gf menus on what to serve for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner.

Gluten-Free Candy List-This is an older list so there may be newer things that are not on this list that are in fact gluten-free.  This list will come in handy around Halloween. 

GF Candies Info and phone number List-This list provides most candy manufacturers phone numbers so you can be proactive and call their customer service numbers for GF information.

www.KidCeliac.com-a site designated to help parents with gf children.

Coping with CD-GlutenFreeLiving.com has a section for coping with CD.  Gluten Free Living is a great magazine that I highly recommend anyone to Subscribe to.  From a beginner to an expert, this magazine has great articles on topics like restaurants and food to cross contamination and lipsticks along with articles from Celiac specialists, Doctor's and Nutritionists.

All about KIDS
Blogs worth checking out if you are a parent of a gluten-free child:

What To Feed Your Kids is a great blog about a family who has gone gluten-free.  You can read about their lives and the great recipes they make with their kids.  For those of you who have children and want to cook at home, there are some fun recipes on this blog like GF onion rings!  Yum!!


Gluten Free Letter For School-GlutenFreeIsLife is another great blog written by a GF Mom.  She has written a letter that she used for her son.  I think every GF mom should print this out for their children.


Enjoy! xoxo Julie

Not All Advil Is Gluten-Free!!!

After last night's POST , GF Advil was on my mind and I decided to call Advil/Pfizer this morning to get some more clarification.  In response to my post last night I advised through the website that Advil Liqui-gels, Advil Migraine and Advil Liqui-Gels PM contain a wheat derivative.  After my phone call with a lovely representative I received more information. - ALL ADVIL LIQUI-GELS contain a wheat derivative .   ALL LIQUI-GELS.  So stop these immediately if you are taking the Liqui-gels.  You maybe getting sick from a medication rather then a food and this is so important to recognize!  Just steer clear of Liqui-Gels. -ALL FORMS OF ADVIL MIGRAINE contain gluten .  There is no further information if it is just the Liqui-Gels or the Tablets, Caplets and Gel-Caps.  Pfizer does not have this info therefore they informed me to steer clear of all Advil Migraine pills. Here is what IS GLUTEN-FREE FROM ADVIL: All Advil Tablets, Gel-Caps ( which are different then Li

Hot Chocolate Coffee

Sometimes I feel like there are days only chocolate would understand.  And following a strict Paleo diet does not allot for chocolate eating.  Especially chocolate with added dried cane sugar.  And especially in abundance.  Of course special occasions allot for this type of activity, but today is not that day. So how do you put a sock in your chocolate craving?  Well, simply remove your sock from your foot and put it in your chocolate.  I'm kidding!  Please use a clean sock! Kidding again!!… Often, chocolate cravings can get the best of us, so I created a delicious recipe to kick my craving and your craving.  It's delicious.  And it's perfect for the lover of coffee and chocolate.  Taking a sip of this sent signals of pure decadence to my brain. A lot of my readers often describe how tough it is to drink black coffee without sweetener, so this one is for you guys!!   This recipe is a total Brain Trick.  It tastes sweet and chocolaty, so you think there is swee

Magnolia Bakery-Cream Cheese Frosting

Another amazing frosting recipe from Magnolia!  I swear by these recipes, this is my go-to book for icing when I bake!! 1 pound (two 8-ounce packages) cream cheese, softened and cut into small pieces 6 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened and cut into small pieces 1 1/2 tsp. pure vanilla extract 5 cups sifted confectioners' sugar In a large bowl, on the medium speed of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and butter until smooth, about 3 minutes.  Add the vanilla and beat well.  Gradually add the sugar, 1 cup at a time, beating continuously until smooth and creamy.  Cover and refrigerate icing for 2-3 hours, but no longer, to thicken before using. Makes enough for one 2-or 3-layer 9-inch cake Enjoy! xoxo Julie www.goodiegoodiegluten-free.blogspot.com
