I now understand there is a new SHOE policy at school

July 30th, 2007 · 2 Comments

My husband came home from the KOC dance and told me there is now a new “Shoe” policy at the GirlChild’s school. I can’t get them to verify information about her textbooks that I’m ordering on tape but they have time to sit down and write a new SHOE policy?  Is there something wrong with […]

Am I really that difficult to understand?

July 23rd, 2007 · 3 Comments

Last week we got the following message on our answering machine: Hi there! This is Mrs. Secretary with the new school you were hoping the BoyChild could attend this fall.

Cookies

July 16th, 2007 · 5 Comments

I made these last week. They are Gluten Free/Dairy Free and, I think, Feingold Stage I. These are Namaste Foods Cookies Mix. As sugar cookies, rolled in sugar, they are F-SI. I’m not sure cinnamon is an approved Stage I ingredient, but the BoyChild won’t eat them anyway, so I’m not real concerned about it. […]

These weren’t dairy free but I figured the BoyChild wouldn’t eat (too many textures and foods mixed together at the same time) them even if he were allowed to eat dairy so it was o.k. Never having worked with jalapeño peppers, […]

This is a gluten free/dairy free entry. Tonight the BoyChild and I went to Mass. We sat in the back in the Family Room/Crying Room. It is a small room with two short pews and two kneelers. Often times we will be the only ones back there. Tonight we were joined by a family with […]

Gluten Free Bread

July 2nd, 2007 · 1 Comment

I made my first loaf of Gluten Free Bread yesterday. And before you think I’ve gone all domestic-goddess, let me tell you: It was a mix. Mixed the liquids in a bowl. Dumped them into the bread maker. I opened the bag with the sissors. Threw in the yeast. Turned the bread machine on and […]
