Nope, that’s not a typeo up there in the headline. The Kitchn, a segment of Apartment Therapy, is yet another place online where we’re seeing more and more gluten-free recipes popping up. We’re especially intrigued by the recent recipes:
Sweet Chicken Bacon Wraps & Kale and Quinoa Pilaf menu (good superbowl food!)
Peanutella (OMG, are you kidding?! We are so there.)

Once upon a time we ate a cookie called a cow pie and deemed it good. Many years later, we converted this cow pie into an easy, no-bake gluten-free treat and included it in our cookbook, Dig In: Sweets. This recipe has been floating around the web (see here and here, thanks girls!), so we thought we’d share with you a page out of our book. Literally.

We’ll assume you know us well enough to know that we’ve never met a cookie we didn’t like. (Or a surprise toffee cupcake delivery from Bliss Bakery, which we received yesterday. Yay for cupcake deliveries!) So we’re eager to see this cookbook, Gluten-Free Cookies: From Shortbreads to Snickerdoodles, Brownies to Biscotti — 50 recipes for Cookies You Crave, hit stores March 2011.

Maybe you’ve heard a thing or two about how the FDA has been gearing up to create gluten-free labeling regulations. Maybe you’ve been hearing that for a long, long while (like since 2008). If you’d like to see the FDA finish these labeling rules & regulations, read on for North Bay Celiacs‘ letter and call to action for the celiac community:

We always get a warm fuzzy feeling inside when we see fellow GFers take it upon themselves to help other GFers.
Yah! Go team GF!
GF in SF is a fantastic resource for gluten-free restaurants, bakeries & products available in the San Francisco Bay Area. So if you’re in San Francisco – or if you’re planning a trip to San Francisco any time soon – this site is a MUST SEE. Look for gorgeous photos, clear & organized categorization of eateries and their neighborhoods, and recipes.

One of our good internet pals is Gluten-Free Mike. He has a great perspective on dining out gluten-free, and he’s in the public eye more than ever as the necessity for the gluten-free diet grows. Take, for instance, this article from MSNBC published this week announcing that Toronto-based Fairmont Hotels and Resorts are now offering “a new series of menus with different dishes specifically created for guests not only with celiac disease but also diabetes and heart disease, as well as for guests on macrobiotic, raw and vegan diets.”

Well here’s some potentially good news for GFers across the nation: Subway is testing out a couple of gluten-free items to potentially add to their menu. Woo! In addition to the possibility of including a sandwich roll and a brownie to their gluten-free repertoire, Subway would also be training their sandwich-making artists on the art of keeping foods and utensils separate, so, for instance, the knife used to cut a gluten-free sandwich would be pre-wrapped and designed for single-use only. We don’t like the impact this has on waste generation (more trash, really?) but we do like that there’s a visual cue for someone ordering a GF sandwich (wrapped knife = gluten-free knife).

Remembering the care free days of summer camp is a bit of a Wonder Years moment for us. We know, we know…it’s a challenge to even think about how good summer feels during the dead of winter, but try to feel the sun on your skin. The smiles exchanged with the cute girl/boy across the lake. The swimming, the singing of campy camp songs, the making of new & lasting friendships, the popsicle stick crafts. Some kids with severe food allergies may never experience summer camp, but since 2007 the Taylor Family Foundation has been dedicated to providing an authentic summer camp experience for kids aged 9 – 17 who have been diagnosed with Celiac disease.
