The first few times I went to dinner at a friends, they would earnestly make what they thought was GFCF, but without fail I’d get glutened or dairyed (how do you SPELL that word? It’s not a real word to begin with, so Spell Checker can’t help… But what would the rules be with that ending “y”… turn it into an “ie”? Leave as a “y”? Hum…. But I digress.) So I’d leave smiling and saying thanks, but really I’d have my button undone at the waist and inside my stomach was churning.
So now I try to bring my own food whenever I can. Like this weekend I’m going to a scrapbook crop with some friends. And the hostess always makes the most WONDERFUL dinners for us, which prior to being GFCF I very much looked forward to (someone else spending the time in the kitchen instead of me?! Whoot!). But not anymore…
Leftovers, which I was never a big fan of prior to going GFCF, are my new best friend. And since I threw away all my old, contaminated tupperware, now I’m going to seek out the best take-your-leftovers-with-you gear I can find! I’ll post back here on my Resources Page, under “Gear.” Comment back if you have any suggestions!
