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

It was kind of embarrassing having the woman wander through my house and note all the dust and dog hair.

a) That's her job b) Unless I'm very mistaken, she's seen *so* much worse.

This is what I keep telling myself in order to gradually talk myself into getting a cleaner. Jesus. It better be true.

Okay! Home!

But I forgot to tell my manager I have a doctor's appointment Monday morning. Christ. Flake.

Most soy sauce is made with a combination of wheat and soy, but you can get gluten-free if you look for it. I think most health stores carry it these days. (Tamari is wheat-free, right?)

Usually. Just about any health food store or higher-end supermarket will have a few soy sauces labeled gluten-free.

Both points are true. And yet! Well, she'll be coming next Saturday for the introductory deep cleaning: 3 people for 3 hours, ouch.

So is there gluten in soy sauce? I want to make a mess of bulgogi for my sister's birthday on Sunday, but one of the guests has celiac.

Yeah these days they label most of it but tamari is gluten free

Yeah, my boss has a wheat allergy, and she uses tamari.

I came from the pool to find my mother dusting. Which it badly needed.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Not all brands of tamari are wheat/gluten-free (I have no idea why), but, as noted above, the ones that are gluten/wheat-free will be labeled as such. A common GF brand is San-J. It's really good, too.

Yup. I'm reminded of the scene in Raising Hope when the mom gushes that the people whose houses she cleans clean before she gets there to clean their houses.
