    Gluten and glutton.  I get them confused sometimes.  I think I mistake them because they are spelled and pronounced very similar and since one might be the outcome of the other, it tends to play tricks on me  No. I am not gluten free.  I do make and eat cookies, bread, pasta, and devour many things that have wheat in them.
    I do not become a glutton on them.  I think balance is naturally good in all things.

  • Dear Element 99,

    I am gluten-lessening...several friends have shown remarkable improvement in their health after going GF.

    And I like it! Exploring now such diversity of textures, flavours...it's amazing how much we depend on wheat, and do not even think about it. I don't have celiac disease or anything, but I did notice some health improvements when staying with my GF cousin for a month!

    I made these flourless pumpkin muffins recently, and they are delicious.

    Those look delicious :) :)  I'm not sure I know how to make muffins or cookies without flour.  I must learn how because I was about to make some white/dark chocolate chip cookies which calls for 5 cups of flour and 3 cups of white and brown sugar.  It's a double recipe.  In order to have both chocolates, I've found combining the two makes for a better cookie.
    These look much lighter and healthier.  Besides, I love pumpkin :)

  • Merlin, I love the idea of the white/dark chocolate chips!
    Because of cookies, I don't think I would EVER try to be totally GF...

    I'll send some to you via cyber space as soon as I run into the kitchen and make them.  Which should be right about now!  Have a great day and lots of good vibes and smiles always! :):)

  • I am not. I like plenty of gluten free food, but I also really love glutinous bread :)
