ita, are you just off wheat? Are oats, rye, flax and almond meal okay still? Cause I have some bars for you.

Nilly, my local grocery store is a Kosher store with lots imported from Israel. I made breakfast bars with Aunt Berta's Preserves (peach and berry of some kind, which apparently is Beth-El Foods where you are pretty jars. So yummy.

ita, I assume you've already checked it out, but just in case you haven't, Whole Foods has a fantastic gluten-free section. My aunt was diagnosed with Celiac Disease last year, so I've learned a lot about it.

ewewew!! my sister just found a tick on her. this makes the fourth tick we've found either on ourselves or on our animals in the past two weeks or so. i guess we're going to have to spray something in the yard because they seem to love it. anybody have any recommendations?

Yikes! Ticks. I've got nothing on how to untick a yard.

We have a ton of bugs that linger in our doorway. I know it's not very buddhist or tantric of me, but I think I'm getting a bug zapper to hang at the front of the porch. I think the bug zapper is more like my inner catholic.

I have a kosher-glatt (whatever that means) subway within a mile of me.

Yay mobile Noah! My brother called again tonight. Part of what I love of his calls (in addition to the debates and imparting of knowledge) it the background noise of his kids, my nephews. The discovery of a slug, the dares to eat (eww!) the slug (my eldest nephew is sane, thank goodness,) baby T's attempts to escape the house, all the 5 year old's observations on reality and T's basic ...grunts and squeals, really.

I really hope he finds a post doc near me.

oh crap.... ita, scratch the bars for you. I just remember I used splenda in lieu of straight sugar. I'm a dessert tease. I apologize.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

No worries, Kat. Hopefully I can get back on wheat tomorrow anyway. I don't think it's been much of a factor.

Kosher glatt from kashrut.com--a fascinating read. Now I'm going through the humour section, and it's rapidly become a weird read.

Kristin, most of my easy wheat-free shopping has been WholeFoods. They are very good at just about everything "-free."
