Gluten Free Menu Plan – Week of February 20

  GF Dad here.  Heidi got out of bed this morning long enough to do this week’s menu plan and test a few more products with the GlutenTox Home test kits (for her upcoming Gluten Free 101 post on boxed cereals). But she didn’t feel very well. Heidi had one of her “gluten-free gals” get-togethers […]

Men At Work: An EASY Gluten Free Breakfast Even A Dad Can Make

I have turned the blog over to my hubby for a post or two, and this is his first entry in our Gluten Free 101 series.  Ladies, you might want to print this post and place it in a strategic location in your home! 😉 GF Dad here, sharing some thoughts on keeping it simple […]

A Gluten Free Beer Showdown

Six years ago, when I was diagnosed with celiac disease, I admit that the thought of never enjoying a cold, refreshing beer again did not affect me nearly as much as I imagine it would affect the gluten free guys out there.  Still, there was something about being told that I could NEVER have something […]

GF Dad: Learning to Ask the Next Question

Do any of the guys out there remember the Cub Scout Pine Wood Derby from Cub Scouts?  Or are you currently “helping” your son with his Pine Wood Derby car?  I used our first year of car crafting as an excuse to buy the new Dremel Power Tool; I had an old one with a […]

I Am Indiana Jones

I love Indiana Jones. I don’t think there is a man in the world who would not love to become either Indiana Jones or Han Solo in their next life (well, maybe James Bond as well).  Now granted, our intrepid adventurer is brought to life so well by Harrison Ford’s impeccable performances, George Lucas’s and […]

Risky (Gluten) Business

{GF Dad Disclaimer: I am gluten free by choice.  I have not been diagnosed as either celiac or gluten intolerant.  I feel better now that I am not eating gluten so I try very hard to avoid it, but as far as I know, I do not have a medical condition that requires it.} I […]

Rolling Boulders and a Giveaway Winner

I want to say thanks to all of you for the many kind comments to my recent post.  In the weeks to come, I hope to post more thoughts of mine on all things gluten-free. For the guys out there who don’t feel comfortable leaving a comment on this blog, you can now contact me […]

Confessions of an Accidental Glutadoodle

I thought I would try something new on my blog for the next several weeks while our family is on an elimination diet (hence my list of available ingredients has dwindled significantly and I’m feeling a bit like a stunned bird at the moment) and have my husband, Mike, become a regular contributor. As I […]

Gluten-Free, Casein-Free, Egg-Free Gingerbread House

Today’s guest post is by my better half, the man “behind the curtain” in this Glutadoodle Oz of ours.  Without Mike’s love and support, I never would have been able to go on this 18 month journey of self discovery and seeking out the answers to our family’s health issues.  Little did he know 9 […]

Peppermint Bark

GF Dad here. I’m sure you’ve all figured out by now that everyone in our home is effectively banished from Mom’s kitchen during the holidays.  There are some good reasons for this.  For starters, the rest of us are boys, which means we make big messes, don’t measure ingredients very well, and always want to run […]
