Wow I can't believe that it has almost been a year since Kennedy was diagnosed with celiac disease. Who would have ever thought that I would be buying organic and cooking with rice flour a year ago? This has been a rough year and looking back I am so glad that I am where we are. Kennedy looks so healthy and the trips to the doctors have decreased. I am hopeful that 2010 will be a healthy year for our family.
I have really been into baking since Thanksgiving. I enjoy trying to find gluten free alternatives that taste just as good as the gluten filled food. It is not easy, but I think that I have found a few top notch recipes. Most of are meals are made from scratch which makes it really time consuming, but I know that quick and easy is not always good for you. Kevin stands at the kitchen sink as I dirty up all of the dishes. He washes the dishes and then I dirty them back up. It is a constant circle of rotating dishes.
I do miss eating out at restaurants. We occasionally get to go out and eat, but it is very rare. The ease of going through a drive thru is no longer an option. I have to make sure that I always have food with us wherever we go.
Our house is gluten free and we all eat gluten free with her. I try not to make it seem that she is eating something weird or abnormal. I admit that when Kevin and I are away from home we do eat an occasional hamburger with a bun.
