Yeah, but you're an amateur fry cook and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25.

Gluten free thin mint recipe link.

Ooooh. I'll try that once we're done with the batch of gluten-free brownies.

Seriously, the most annoying part about this gluten-free routine is that I have to be alert/paranoid about cross-contamination. I had a flare up last week, and the only explanation we could find was that I foolishly used the toaster (which, being a toaster, is full of bread crumbs) a few times.

(In some sense, I think it's easier to just say no gluten, ever, than to try and straddle both the gluten and gluten-free worlds).

That's what I'm trying to do, but MAN, the learning curve. I'm avoiding my favorite local Mexican place until I can double-check with them about the possibility of flour in the enchilada sauce.

On the other hand, there's a great GF pizza place in our neighborhood, and Cupcake Royale does make my favorite flavors in GF.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I just sent out a bunch of connection requests on LinkedIn, several of them to Buffistas. Must be the springish weather making me restless or something. I like my home, my neighbors, most aspects of my job, etc. But there's something nudging me, going, "Hey, wonder what's thataway?" Odds are nothing will come of it. Maybe. Anyway, if a comms/km person from an international NGO sent you a LinkedIn request today, she's probably me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Bon, you're precisely on the topic I'm looking for, but none of those are the specific site. I'm a lot closer, now--it's something with a marginally inflammatory title that reminds me of "Everything you know is wrong", but that really doesn't seem to be it. Still, with the correct terminology, maybe I can find it now.

You are clearly the second least wrong person here.

Aha! Found it now! [link]

Thanks!

What about your make-up? I read somewhere that a lot of lipsticks have gluten.

I'm in luck that the new brand I'm testing out for a review (Portland Black Lipstick Co.) are very clear about their ingredients, and there's no gluten. I'm afraid to check about MAC and Wet & Wild, but I know I have to.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Woo, I got to go buy Graeter's ice cream for work. And then eat it. Too bad that isn't the sum total of my job duties.
