CVS Will No Longer Check My Meds for Gluten. Here’s Why.

January 14, 2015 | 81 Comments

So one of my goals in 2015 was to begin to meditate on a daily basis. I need to de-stress a bit and people who meditate swear by it. I’ve been thinking about it for years, but I read on the interwebs that thinking […]

The Mother of All Celiac Rants

January 12, 2015 | 37 Comments

As I am now on day nine of feeling like absolute dog poop (maybe I SHOULD have gotten that flu shot after all), it’s a good a day as any to post a celiac rant. It’s been awhile since I posted one of these […]

A Dudette is Hurting…So the Dude Ranch Goes Gluten-Free

January 7, 2015 | 152 Comments

Cough, hack, sneeze, cough, sniff, wheeze, cough, hack. You may want to stand back from your computer screen a bit while you read this as I’ve got what it seems everyone else is getting. I don’t think it’s contagious through the internet, but you […]

What Do You Do When Your In-laws Won’t Feed You?

January 5, 2015 | 57 Comments

Happy New Year everyone. Hope you all had a great holiday. Personally, I’m pretty psyched for 2015 and am happy to see 2014 in the rear view mirror. Let me ask you a question. During the holidays, did you eat any meals at someone […]

Are McDonald's French Fries Gluten-Free? Does it Matter?

December 30, 2014 | 50 Comments

Dude note: This is not a “Dude on his pedestal” post telling everyone about the evils of McDonald’s. We all know they’re crap. (Yet…my senior year in high school, I ate at least 113 Big Macs. Ahh…youth.) Anyway, what this post is about is […]

I Have Found Gluten-Free Paradise and Its Name is Baraka Point

December 22, 2014 | 10 Comments

I’m back. Oh…how I’ve missed you all. This is the fourth straight year that I’ve gone away to the Virgin Islands with the same group of friends and each year I try to get a blog post or two in while I’m away. This […]

Prepping for a Gluten Free Vacation

December 11, 2014 | 16 Comments

First, I’d like to apologize for the suckiness that has been my website for the past few weeks. I have literally been in technical hell trying to figure out why it’s been running so poorly. I’m frustrated and embarrassed that people have not been […]

Hey Applebees: We're Celiacs…We're Not Psychotic

December 8, 2014 | 46 Comments

So I blew my back out on Thanksgiving. Not the first time…and won’t be the last time. But it’s been a painful couple of weeks for me. Real painful. Mrs. Dude’s cousin was staying with us for the weekend. He also has a pretty […]

3 Celiac Videos – 3 Important Lessons

December 4, 2014 | 17 Comments

Sure…I could write a lot of words about the following videos but blah, blah, blah. Sometimes, videos just speak for themselves. Just remember, celiac disease bites, but a good attitude and strong sense of humor go a long way. Lesson 1: Celiac Disease Sucks […]

Some Friendly Advice from a 14-year-old Celiac

December 2, 2014 | 17 Comments

I just woke up from my Thanksgiving food coma. Let me know if I missed anything. While I LOVE getting emails from all of my fellow celiacs, there’s something special about receiving one from someone who’s much younger than I am. It’s a reminder […]

Who I am. And who I'm not.

I AM someone who's been gluten-free since 2007 due to a diagnosis of severe celiac disease. I'm someone who can steer you in the right direction when it comes to going gluten-free. And I'm someone who will always give you the naked truth about going gluten free.

I AM NOT someone who embraces this gluten-free craziness. I didn’t find freedom, a better life or any of that other crap when I got diagnosed. With all due respect to Hunter S. Thompson, I found fear and loathing of an unknown world. But if I can share my wisdom, tell my stories and make the transition easier on you, I’ve done my job.
