Special Edition Roundup-Celiac, Nutrition, and Gluten Free News and Goodies
Erin | Aug 22, 2010 | Comments 4
It’s been a bit of a rollercoaster-this weekend with technology-but here’s the roundup!
Gluten Free and Celiac Stuff:
*The GIG Conference is coming to Florida!-
This is exciting stuff. The Gluten Intolerance Group’s Annual Education Conference will be in Orlando, Florida June 30th-July 2nd, 2011. Orlando is a very celiac friendly town. Mickey Mouse is here. What are you waiting for?! Come on down to the Sunshine State! I am very excited, and hope to meet lots of my online friends there. It’s only about a 3 hour drive from Fort Lauderdale, so I’m very happy to put it on my calendar.
*Eating Well Magazine has an entire Gluten Free Diet Center on their website.
I’ve subscribed to the magazine for a couple years, been on their site a ton of times, and never realized they had this page until this week. They also did a review of a couple of GF cookbooks.
*Melissa and Dallas over at the Whole 9 posted some great tips on eating breadless. In other words-how to get a non-bread including sandwich. Not specifically written for the celiac, but totally applicable. Just add in some education to the preparers on cross contamination concerns and you are golden.
*Heidi of Adventures of a Gluten Free Mom fame posted an allergy free chocolate pudding recipe. It sounded so good, that I-the-queen-of-make-do-with-what-you-have-on-hand, special ordered an ingredient. Seriously.
Here’s why this is a special edition round up:
I am floored, grateful and flattered by all the positive responses I’ve been getting from the “7 Quick Start Tips for Living a Healthy Gluten Free Fit Life” project. I am so happy to hear that you are finding it helpful and encouraging. I wanted to give special recognition to those who have written entire blog posts to review the book. The emails mean no less to me, I can assure you of that. Also, there is a giveaway going on that you can take part in!
