Hey gang! Time for our monthly meeting again!!
Monday, Nov 8th, 7pm at PJ's Coffee Shop, 2040 Gause Blvd. Slidell.
I did want to share, I recently tried Mellow Mushroom gluten free pizza. It's not too shabby. I'm not gonna lie and say it's Pizza Hut pizza, but it's quite a good texture, it does lack a little seasoning in the crust, but depending on how you like your crust, and how you do the toppings, that could work for you! :) I just added a dash of salt and pepper and that helped. The waitress told me they are trying to work on dessert pizzas, breadsticks, etc.
I also found Gluten Free Hamburger Helper and GF Bisquick! You can get the GF Hamburger Helper at some Winn-Dixies. (I've had varying luck at different stores.) I've not tried them yet though.
The GF Bisquick I got online at Amazon.com and with my Subscribe and Save program got 3 small boxes for around 13.00, free shipping (I'm an Amazon Prime member.). Again, I've not yet tried them! :)
Don't forget Angel Food Ministries has allergen free packages, and if anyone would like to split them, please let me know.

Meeting Time again!
Time for our monthly meeting!
Monday, April 12th at 7pm.
PJ's Coffee House 2040 Gause Blvd.
Have you found anything good and yummy lately? I will hopefully remember my latest issues of Gluten Free Living, and please bring anything interesting you've found!
The April issue of Family Circle had some great Gluten Free recipes in it, just as it's normal recipes. It's nice to see GF getting more attention, but we need to maintain how serious it is for those of us who need it, so we don't get clumped along with other food fads!
See you guys there! :)

December Meeting Update!
Hello all! I just wanted to update that we will have our December meeting next Monday, 12/7/09, at 7pm, at PJs Coffee Shop, 2040 Gause Blvd. This is technically not the 2nd Monday of the month, but I thought with the holidays we'd want to push it up a little!

Excuse my absence..
Sorry I haven't updated much! I was out of town from Oct. 2-11th and have been busy reorganizing life since then!
~~~~~~~
Our next meeting will be November 9th, 2009 @ 7pm at PJ's Coffee Shop, 2040 Gause Blvd.
We have a trip to Whole Foods and to get Gluten Free Pizza is tenatively planned for Nov. 15. We will discuss at that meeting a possible date change, I may have a conflict.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Now some news I am personally vested in. I JUST read this in the November issue of Parents magazine.
"A child whose mother has celiac disease may have a three-times-greater risk of autism, finds a new study in Pediatrics. People with celiac disease have an abnormal immune response to a protein in wheat and other grains. It may be most dangerous in pregnancy when it's untreated because it blocks absorption of nutrients and can cause premature delivery and low birthweight--known autism risk factors."
This finding is outstanding. Personally, for me, I am intensely relieved it's actually be published. My youngest child is newly diagnosed with autism and my older son is suspected of having Sensory Processing Disorder. I fully suspect undiagnosed Celiac/Gluten Sensitivity in Eli is what has triggered the autism. He showed NO signs until about 4 mos after he started eating gluten. I have wondered for YEARS how many children don't actually have 'true' autism but have some form of "Celiac Induced Autism" (Not a medical term, I've made it up). Why do SO many children with autism benefit from the Gluten Free/Caesin Free Diet if there is NO connection?
What IF, we could get more people diagnosed with Celiac (because there are SO many people who have it and don't know it!)...What IF every pregnant woman was tested for Celiac Disease and if found positive she was able to go Gluten Free and she'd KNOW to keep an eye on her child for autism and start that child on the Gluten Free diet immediately? What IF prior to conception, women were tested for Celiac Disease and went Gluten Free JUST in case? What would it hurt?? NOTHING! There is a connection between gluten and so many people's health....why can't mainstream medicine do something about this? (I"ll not rant politics here, it is not the place....feel free to ask me privately!! LOL)
I am absolutely thrilled this study has been found and will happily help is spread and cannot wait for more research. FINALLY!!! Perhaps if they do find a Celiac/Autism connection BOTH populations can get more research, media coverage, etc. We need to work together!
So if you know anyone who is a family eating gluten free for WHATEVER REASON, please remind them they are welcome to attend our meetings!!! We are all in the same food boat, no matter the reason! :)
See ya'll at the meeting!

Next Meeting--TIME CHANGE
Hello SillyYaks! Our next meeting will be Monday, July 13th, at 7pm. That is slightly later than previous times, because due to our location change to 2040 Gause Blvd, PJs Coffee Shop, I need a little later time to get to the meeting. If anyone in Slidell needs a ride to PJ's please give me a call or email me at louisianaceliac@yahoo.com.
Unfortunately our last Angel Food Ministries buy did not go through because they didn't put the Allergen Free box on the truck! But we will definitely try again this month!
Naked Pizza was a HUGE success and I'm pretty sure we'll be doing it again as soon as possible!
I have gotten "The G Free Diet" by Elisabeth Hasselback in from the library and we shall see how it goes. It was not reviewed well by Gluten Free Living Magazine, so I will give it a look and review it when I'm finished!
I hope everyone is having a happy, healthy, gluten free summer! Remember if you need ANYTHING do not hesitate to call me or email me!!
See you Monday at 7pm, at PJs, 2040 Gause Blvd.
