A friend just made me my own Cheeseburger Wellington!  My husband and him had the wheat one in a separate pan.  He used the new Mission Gluten Free Wrap!  It was unbelievably good-- I think as good as  the wheat ones!  I can't wait to try these for other things like enchiladas, etc.  Let us know what you use these for!

Just read a review about Papa Johns Pizza:  it is not gluten free even though they say they have gluten free!  Many chances for contamination such as:  toppings put on with the same gloves, cutter used on gluten pizza, flour flying in the air.  Too bad!  I have used Papa Murphys Pizza and did great every time I ate it!

Starbucks breakfast gluten free sandwich tested gluten free!  Yeahhhhh!

Due to everyone's hectic lifestyle we have cancelled the Aug. Celiacs Eating Out (CEO)

Just heard that Starbucks now has GF breakfast sandwiches of bacon, cheese, egg and bun.  The bun is packaged separately so that is good! 

Subway now has separate GF buns.  I do not know if these are both available in our area.  Please send an email if you know about  this.

Hi!  Just made Bob's Red Mill GF Homemade Wonderful Bread Mix.  Now, thisss is what I call bread!  It is crusty on the outside, tender on inside.I think I got this mix at Big Lots.  I will definitely get some more!

Hi, Just read my Mercola email newsletter!  He has so many good things about health and exposing the dangers about Roundup in our food and environment.  I just read that 3 million people have celiac but, about 20 million have gluten sensitivity!  I feel sorry for those latter people because there is no test yet for them!  If they do not have an astute doctor they may never figure out that gluten is causing them harm!

My brother recently reported that his gluten free friend is thrilled with the Sabor Latin Bar and Grill, located at 309 N. Mead, 201-4880 (phone).  Her daughter and self share a large risotto dish and are delighted with the flavor.

I just watched:  Gluten Free Q & A with Dr. Tom O'Bryan.  It's about 42 mins. and very informative!  My only disagreement with him was when he said that if a product says Gluten Free, such as oats, then it is!  I know I got glutenned from Cheerios!  He describes growing the oats with likely contamination from other fields, loading it in trucks that previously transported wheat, processing it on equipment that processed wheat before, etc.  He mentioned sky high levels of gluten in oats! 

He also mentioned a new test that tests more of the protein peptides of gluten.  This one "wheat Zoomer" is very accurate and tests 26-30 of the peptides.  He says most doctors do not know about the new test.  7 or 8 of 10 people are testing positive, because it is more extensive testing.  He reccomends EVERYONE get tested once a year to make sure they can really tolerate gluten before a terrible illness manifests!  You can read about it at thedoctor.com.

I know several women that have dry eyes.  I have had severe problems such as waking up at night with stabbing pain, tears running down my face.  I thank God for hearing my prayers for desperate help!  Dr. Oz had a dermatologist on his show telling that using an oil (they had several)  would help eye lashes grow back!  I want thicker, longer lashes because mine are nearly non existent!  I tried this using the coconut oil I already  had and noticed pretty quick that my eyes felt better!  Coconut oil is an antifungal.  I had Lasik surgery in 2000.  I believe they washed my eyes with antibiotics and probably the drops I took after this had them also.  Most people know that we need probiotics for our gut due to all the meds. we have been given.  What about our eyes?  I read that celiac pops out after too many antibiotics.  Some people have the gene but never develop full blown celiac disease.  A great side effect:  the puffy bags under my eyes are shrinking and skin around my nose-to-mouth got dry and peeled and the skin is so much better!  Like new born skin-- the deep crevice is shallower!  I had begun to use the coconut oil on my face.  After a few days the skin got better!  This will save us $50 a month.  Hope this helps someone, tell others!

We have decided to make changes to the structure of our group.  Many people cannot come out to meetings so we are not going to schedule regular meetings.  We will still have this blog, and our yahoo account for email:  wichitacsa@yahoo.com.  You can use this site to tell others about new foods, restaurants, traveling with gluten intolerance or celiac, etc.  We want to share information that we normally would share at our meetings.  This might also include new medicines, tests, medical information.  When you hit "send" one of our leadership group will read it before posting.  Hopefully, we will avoid having something posted that is inappropriate.

We will continue to meet for dinner (celiacs eating out-- CEOs) at various locations in our area.  Please make sure the restaurant is still open before you come.  Many local restaurants have gone out of business.  If someone calls and lets us know that a restaurant has closed we will choose a new one for that date.  Gayle-788-2531, Bev 776-9369, Susan 779-5687.  Please leave a message because many of us do not answer unknown callers.
