We Are…
Tha Mom
I am the Mother of three boys between 5 and 13. The ongoing attempt to build amazing men starts with breakfast in the morning … a Wheat Free one as the four of us are allergic to that one ingredient that is in the majority of North American foods. Wheat. aka Gluten.
The Eldest Fledgling
Demyx is a growing teen boy who has a schedule that would challenge most adults. Full time school, College Library study time twice a week, Royal Canadian Air Cadets once a week, and then works part time in the kitchen of a local restaurant on his Friday and Saturday nights. This ‘young man’ has an amazing spirit and attitude and now he wants to join us here and help other kids who are battling in school and life with paper bag lunches and limited birthday party snacks. Who better to help kids than a kid!
Darling Hubby
I am married to an amazing man who who bravely risks all he is risking, skilled at all he is breaking his back to do and who has a contagious laugh when he lets loose for a moment. The most wondrous thing about this man, aside from his willingness to live Wheat Free by choice, is how soft his hands are when they touch my cheek.
OH! and he loves burnt cookies! What more could a woman ask for?
Madeileen
Every family should be lucky enough to have a ” Crazy Aunt” who whirls into the house and makes the kids eyes sparkle. This woman is a powerhouse and an honorary family member. Putting out fires and saving lives (literally) or holding tea parties with antique silver and china is all part of normal life for this woman. Not celiac or grain intolerant, she is on a mission to make our family’s life rich and bountiful… one sweet dish after another.
The Matriarch
Mother of 4 adults, Grandmother to 7, Wheat Intolerant, a Teacher and a Business Owner/Operator leaves this woman engaged in life full force! But full force also means very little time to cook at home, let alone challenge new recipes to accommodate her foodie needs. Good thing she is a willing party to eating and critiquing the foods that her daughter and grandchildren put in front of her!
Loved by many! Adored by a select few… it’s so hard to be me! * oscar award winning sigh* The majority of those in our social circle are not celiac. This makes their support beyond amazing as they join us as we challenge the science of Gluten Free Foods and quest for tasty treats.
So welcome to my world of Rants and Ramblings, challenges and choices, perspectives and pouts all around the struggles of running and raising a Wheat Free Family.
What others have to say!
