Fun GF Discussion! November 1st in North Conway, NH

Celiac Disease Informational Session
Best of New Hampshire 2009!!

Celiac Disease Informational Session at:

RAFFERTY'S Restaurant in North Conway, NH

Date: Sunday, November 1, 2009 (2 - 4 pm)

Guest speaker will be Elizabeth Atkinson, author of GLEE! speaking about her book, "An Easy Guide to Gluten-Free Independence."


GLEE! An Easy Guide to Gluten-Free Independence was published by Clan Thompson, April 2009. It focuses on helping the newly diagnosed and young adults living on their own for the first time with staying healthy on a gluten free diet. Elizabeth will be giving a fun talk concerning this subject, including a GF grocery store discussion and the gluten-free diet fad!

*A quote from Dana Korn:

"From its name to the information it offers, GLEE! is overflowing with "gleeful" advice for young adults. Leaving the house can be a tough time for ANYONE but toss on top of that the added stress of maintaining a strict gluten-free lifestyle, and it can be downright overwhelming. GLEE! is an upbeat, optimistic guide that helps young adults live a glutenfree lifestyle in a manner that they will revel, not rebel. Knowledge is power, and this book arms young adults with everything they need to be strong and confident in their gluten-free lifestyle."

-DANNA KORN (author of Living Gluten-Free for Dummies, Kids with Celiac Disease, and founder of R.O.C.K.-Raising our Celiac Kids)

As always, we will have gluten-free samples and giveaways!

Gluten-Free Tip: GF MENU SWAP

I just discovered a great concept through Nancy Lapid’s About.com Guide to Celiac Disease web column. Nancy recently featured the Gluten-Free MENU SWAP site (http://glutenfreemommy.com/gluten-free-menu-swap/) on Natalie Naramor’s Gluten Free Mommy blog.

“The idea is to create a resource for all of us asking the question, 'What’s for dinner this week?' Since this can be a challenge when you are gluten-free, I think it will be fun to look at everyone’s menu to see what everyone is cooking (and just think of all those recipes!) and perhaps even find out which restaurants we eat gluten-free.” (N. Naramor)

Natalie gives clear directions on how it all works, how you can participate, and how to qualify as a host. Visit her site and join up --such a great idea!
