I am really anxious to re-introduce gluten and other no-nos into Claire's diet next month. If she has a bad reaction, I think I might go insane. I AM SICK OF THIS GFCFSF MISERY. "Oh," you say, "but she's the only one who has to eat that $#!%. You can eat whatever you want." Yeah, well, I'm the one who has to find the food, make it, enforce the diet, and plan for events that want ruin it. It's a pain and I hate it.
See this nastiness? Nope, it's not Dijon mustard. It's my attempt to make frosting orange with turmeric and paprika instead of food coloring so Claire could decorate her sugar cookie (which I of course had to make myself--try finding a store-bought cookie that's GFCFSF) like a pumpkin if she wanted to during her kindergarten Halloween party.
I also had to make chocolate frosting in case she wanted to make a spider cookie instead, which of course she did, because who wants a yellow pumpkin cookie that smells like a deviled egg? All her classmates were going to have the spider vs. pumpkin option, so I had to try to give Claire the option too, okay? On the plus side, the sugar cookies were very good--they didn't taste GFCFSF at all. Maybe I'll publish a GFCFSF cookbook someday. Just kidding. I'd rather die.

I would rather be in potty-training hell for 3 more years than do gfcfsfdftfyfifufjfkflf diet. It is confusing to even look at in print. You are one tough cookie.
Agreed. TOUGH COOKIE.
Sounds like such a cooking challenge. I hate to cook regular food, if I had to put more effort into it, we wouldn't thrive.
I can barely manage to find things that E likes out of the whole world of food. I ache for you and we will keep little Claire (and you) in our prayers for food miracles. Good luck, and keep blogging. I love your posts!
