Going GF & DF

Ahhhh...what does GF and DF mean?  Well, GF is short for Gluten Free and DF is Dairy Free. Well, Alaska Girl, what does that mean? "A  gluten-free diet  is a diet  that excludes foods containing gluten . Gluten is a protein complex found in wheat  (including kamut  and spelt ),barley, rye and triticale. Corn  and rice  also contain gluten, but are considered gluten-free, as the gluten in these species do not cause celiac disease .  A gluten-free diet is the only medically accepted treatment for celiac   disease,   the related condition dermatitis herpetiformis  and wheat allergy , but not gluten allergy ." (wikipedia) Wikipedia-the end all be all for info! Not really. So, here is info from celiac.com  " wheat, rye and barley, it is obvious that you will need to avoid these grains.

One of my Favorite Podcasts

About three years ago, my awesome big brother encouraged me to start listening to podcasts.  The first one I binged on was Night Vale and slowly built my podcast library to include more than 200.  My listening tastes lean heavily towards comedy and true crime.  I have also discovered that I don't really like the podcasts that utilize the conversational style.  I prefer narration or story telling style.

A friend sent us a box of organic California lemon cellos. Opening the box was heaven... the scent wafting from the lemons was like sunshine. The yellow color was a bright spot on a gray cold day. When we got home, I washed the lemons because they had a looooong cold flight. (You like taking a shower/bath after traveling, yes?) For the first couple days I simply enjoyed the sight and scent of sunshine in my kitchen.  We did photo shoots. Fresh from their bath.  Sunshine streaming thru the kitchen window.  Beautiful, lovely gorgeous lemons. (I didn'a realize my Trifle bowl was, well, dirty) I realized that I should do something with the wonderful lemons instead of letting them go bad. I shared several with friends, sliced some up for water and ate them like oranges. Oh yeah. Good stuff. One recipe I have never tried from scratch is lemon bars. I have enjoyed them at potlaches, BBQs and restaurants and have *loved* them...
