Welcome

Hi, friends!  I have thought of making this blog for quite some time and have finally decided it is time to start.  After years of experimenting in the world of cooking without gluten (and now also without dairy), I thought I would share my cooking adventures with all of you. 

I was originally diagnosed in 2003 with Celiac Disease which is an autoimmune disorder that is an intolerance gluten (wheat, barley or rye), basically, your body attacks the gluten.  My symptoms went away for a time and then slowly started to return with some additional problems.  Thanks to Dr. Gerard Mullin at Johns Hopkins, it was determined that I do not have Celiac Disease but rather just an intolerance or allergy to wheat and dairy.  Once we ascertained the truth, my digestive track has been great, expect when I decide to stray from diet and indulge in too much of the forbidden substances.

So join me on my cooking journey!
