It's hard when you are cooking for your family who has no allergies!!! By the time I'm done with that I have no desire to make anything for myself and end up either going hungry or cheating!!! Well in the last few weeks I've been cheating and all my symptoms reappeared!!!
I take two mixing bowls and add and mix the ingredients for my gluten free concoction first with clean measuring utensils etc. Then in the second mixing bowl I make the exact same thing but in it's regular form useing the measuring utensils I used for the gluten free food. This way I am not contaminating my gluten free diet.
For example On this picture you see some banana/chocolate chip bread and muffins....if you look carefully you see the gluten/dairy and egg free version cooling int he back...they are a little smaller than the regular ones..see them? Oh I'll tell you they were good!
I also made myself a personal size loaf of "white bread":) It was good with peanut butter!
And some yummy sweet and sour meatballs with pasta! My family ate the same thing in it's regular form...I was happy:)

:-) When life downs brought my daughter back home with he special diet, I did my best to just eat as she does...
but she is just off glûten and milk products. I wanted to show we could eat together around the same table. She had her own bread, own pasta but after that we all had the same as her! (but we have young adults around now!)
First, Love the look.
Thanks for sharing your journey with you eating. I admire how you put the effort in taking care of yourself.
Blessings.
You are so amazing and I love what a good cook you are. I have a question for you.
what kinds of things bother you? What are your symptoms. MY husband is very affected by food and has IBS.
I hope you don't mind that I added your site to one of my tabs on my Meet Chaz blog.

virginia: my symptoms are: bloating, gas, frequent runny stools(to the point of having to be careful about going out!), rashes and sores,dark cirlces under eyes, blothchy skin, dull hair, constant stomach aches,nausea,
oh and extreme fatigue!
Oh my gosh! That's crazy! I can see why you have to make it a point to make your food separate. You have a big family too and to be the only one that has to eat gluten free must be frustrating at times.
