In the last three years since going gluten-free, I’ve missed nuts. I don’t know why but I have a reaction to most commercial brands of nuts (every single time I would hear of a Celiac who can eat some brand of peanut – like Planters – I would get really excited that I’d go try [...]
Finding a SAFE Gluten Free Restaurant on the Road
by noi on 04/06/2012
My little family took a BIG road trip last week: Florida to Massachusetts! While on the road and at our destination, there have been several chains that offer gluten-free menus, we didn’t always come across those while on the road. And now that we’re here in Cape Cod, the chain restaurants are few and far in between. [...]
Gluten Symptoms: Do They Vary with Amount?
by noi on 03/12/2012
I’ve always wondered if there is a difference in severity of symptoms based on the amount of gluten ingested. Like, if I ever dared to eat a roll or a whole slice of pizza or something, would I get the same symptoms with the same severity as if I accidentally ingested a tiny bit of [...]

This weekend is one of my favorite awards shows: the Oscars! It’s the “Superbowl” of film geeks everywhere. Since we’re going to have some people over for a viewing party, I was trying to think of some yummy gluten-free appetizers that would satisfy my non-GF friends. And since this worked so well for the Superbowl [...]
Gluten-Free Cheesecake Factory Menu Items 2012
by noi on 02/21/2012
I heard back from Cheesecake Factory today. It actually seems like they have quite a few options for us. I have no idea whether they’re really safe or not (I would bet cross-contamination runs pretty rampant in that kitchen). But I thought I’d share the list in case you wanted to give Cheesecake Factory a [...]
Gluten-Free on the New Cheesecake Factory Menu??
by noi on 02/17/2012
Well, it‘s that time of year again. My best friend just loves the Cheesecake Factory, so I’m off to another birthday bash next week. So I was just trying to figure out if there was anything I would dare order this year. (I chickened out last year because I didn’t want to get sick). Turns [...]
Ian’s Alphatots… Gluten Free??
by noi on 02/16/2012
While I usually like to prepare more healthy, whole foods, I’m a working wife and mom to a very active 7 year old. So on those days where it’s pick up from school and go-go-GO until dinner (karate, soccer, homework, play dates, music lessons… phew!) , sometimes I “cheat” and have fast, premade meals in the [...]
Beware the Hair!!
by noi on 01/29/2012
After two and a half years of leading a very strict gluten-free lifestyle, I really thought that I had completely eliminated all traces of gluten from my daily food and beauty regimen. Wrong!! I recently ran out of my usual Bumble and Bumble texture creme and had to dig waaaaay back in my bathroom closet [...]

Rice Dream Gluten Free? Hum….
by noi on 09/17/2011
Since I’m allergic to dairy (lucky me…I have a true allergy to casein, the protein in milk) I have to find other milks to use in my cereal and homemade baked goods. When I first found out about this dairy allergy I automatically turned to soy milk, but had trouble with it. Turns out many [...]
After being sick for a long time I finally discovered that I have Celiac Disease (& other food allergies). Since I felt SO much better once I went gluten-free, I made this site to help make other people's gluten-free lives easier.
