BuckWHEAT

I have been getting a few questions like this in my email...



Q. I just ate something that said GLUTEN FREE on the box and then when I looked at the ingredients it had BUCKWHEAT listed. Is buckwheat GF?

A. BUCKWHEAT is GLUTEN FREE! So eat it :) The wheat in the name is deceiving!

Cupcake Pebbles! OMG!

I received an email asking me if the new Cupcake Pebbles cereal was gluten free the other day. When I saw the words cupcake and Pebbles in the same sentence, I almost squealed with delight! I got on the Post Cereals Website and checked out the ingredients. Everything looked gluten free, just like my favorite gluten free cereal, Fruity Pebbles! I quickly responded to the emailer (thank you by the way for letting me know about this) and I couldn't wait to see if my local store carried this!

I went to the store yesterday to look for this brand spankin new cereal. When I found the box I got super excited! I ended up eating this for dinner!

The Review:

You all know I adore cupcakes! So, do these actually taste like cupcakes? Yeah they do! These taste like cupcakes mixed with Rice Crispy cereal. These are very tasty, however, I am not sure if these will become my favorite cereal. I think that I need to eat more to find out if it can dethrone Fruity Pebbles!

Email Question: Two Kitchens?

Two Kitchens?

I was asked this in several emails regarding the food review pictures so I will answer it on the blog too! The pictures I post on my blog are taken in my home and also in my boyfriend home because we often cook gluten free there.

Fresh & Easy is making it EASY!

I received an email from Sallie over at Fresh & Easy letting me know that today Fresh & Easy was going to launch a few more gluten free items onto their shelves! They are also going to make those products easy to find with new labeling:
Now you can now print out a gluten free shopping guide to take with you to the store, here! Make sure that you go to your local Fresh and Easy to see these changes for yourself! How exciting, I love it when the world becomes more gluten free friendly!

Email

Email is back! On this blog and the Impressions Of My Life At The Moment blog, I have gotten questions about how to contact me since I took email down last year. Well, it is back! The requests have been picking up even more lately so put it back up. Topics people have been wanting to discuss range from parenting, Celiac disease, fibromyalgia, to the IUD issue I have had. Readers have asked me not to publish on my comments section, but a lot of the time, I had no real way of giving a proper response so this solves the problem! So, I am glad to have the email back up! My email information is on the right of the blog, use it if you need it, I will try to check it often.
