Ben and I have been sick so there hasn't been any blogging. I even fell of the GF wagon. Guess grumpy, tired, sick, and no motivation to cook will do that to you.
Today was rice and nut crackers for breakfast. Lunch is an Amy's Veggie Lasagna. I went grocery shopping. I am always grocery shopping it seems. I got everything I will need for home made ~GF chicken nuggets ~ GF chicken and dumplings or GF chicken Pot Pie ~ Gf corndogs ~ GF fried mozzarella sticks ~ GF Pork, Carrots and Fennel roast. (I am a Fennel virgin but it is supposed to taste like licorice but cut like a huge green onion.) Excited to try it :) I spent WAY TOO much money on what looks like no groceries. One example is that the GF bisquick mix is 7 dollars a pound. yes. ONE POUND. The prices are high because it is considered a specialty food. Not many people buy it so it costs more. I urge EVERYONE to try cutting Gluten away from at least their home menu. The reason 1 out of 33 people have Celiac is because the protein from the gluten was not meant for human consumption. We are the only country in the WHOLE WORLD that uses this much gluten. My Lord, we put wheat or wheat fillers or some type of gluten in most things! If more people ate with an awareness of how much gluten they are putting into their body, the prices of the GF foods would plummett and it wouldn't be so expensive to eat healthy. I know I am rambling but I knd of feel like I have a cause. How do we know that all of this gluten isn't what makes our country the most fat? Think about it. When they are fattening up farm animals, they add proteins and fillers to their food. That's what they are doing to us!!! Pill us up, feed us crap, sit us in front of the tv / video games.... HELLOOOO???? Anyone else see this or am I crazy today? Ok, unfair question, probably BOTH.
