Last week was rather rough. It was the third week since the Princess got glutened and at the end of the week she got ahold of some gluten AGAIN! So of course we’re looking at another 6 to 8 weeks of not sleeping, tummy troubles, extremely picky eating, carb and sugar cravings that are out of control, and severe not listening on her part. Any tips for helping a 4-year-old understand why not to eat gluten even though it tastes good would be more than appreciated!
That being said we didn’t get to the Valentine’s cookies or the chocolate covered strawberries. It’s a new week though so I’m going to try again!
The theme for the Gluten Free Menu Swap over Gluten Free Week is Kid Friendly meals. Boy do I need these! I am hoping to get some good ideas and I am also hoping what I have planned will be kid friendly!
Some soup and tuna fish for a cold winter’s night!
We did some freezer cooking again this weekend. I am stocked up on veggie burgers and spaghetti sauce two ways (with meatballs and without!) for a while.

The Girl Who Couldn't Eat Anything 
It looks like a great menu. I don’t think the professor could explain it at all! 🙂

I can vouch for the coffee cake. If I hadn’t known it was GF, I could not have told.

Yeah I am taking a stab at the explaining but I am not sure if anything is getting through.
