Is Heineken Gluten Free? Don't Ask Heineken.

September 18, 2014 | 65 Comments

Usually, simple questions result in simple answers. The answer is either yes or no. That’s really the beauty of yes/no questions. There are only two possible answers. Here…let me give you some examples. Did I sleep well last night? No. Is iOS 8 taking […]

Should We Just Let Our Stubborn Family Members Suffer?

September 16, 2014 | 43 Comments

Folks…going gluten-free is just not that difficult. It really isn’t. Is it limiting? It can be at times. Is it isolating? Only if you let it. Do I enjoy it? Not really. But is it difficult? No. Yet over the years, I’ve received a […]

Don't Fear the Beer!

September 12, 2014 | 27 Comments

Let me be clear. I really like beer. In 2008, I truly did fear A life without beer. Red Bridge was here. But it wasn’t good beer. Bards then drew near. One taste and…oh dear. Then a whisper in my ear “New Planet tastes […]

Hi folks. Before we kick off today’s post, a few quick Dude notes. – Writing a blog post takes time and my time seems to be at a premium right now. So bear with me (or bare with me…which could also be fun) while […]

I started this blog almost 3 years ago. I’ve written 434 blog posts. I’ve talked about celebrities, I’ve ranted and I’ve posted your love stories. Heck…I even wrote a post called Gluten-Free Sex for Only $27. Yet in all this time, I’ve never once […]

Celiac Rant: I'm Sick of Celiac Disease!!

September 2, 2014 | 76 Comments

I woke up this morning hoping no nude photos of mine on iCloud were hacked. The photos, all tastefully done I assure you, are for a new site I’m launching. It’s called Gluten Nude. Ok…moving on. Watching Mrs. Dude deal with her breast cancer […]

Mrs. Dude is On the Mend

Hi everyone. Where in the world have you been?? What’s that? I’m the one that’s been MIA? Oh…in that case, where in the world have I been? In a nutshell…to hell and back. But hey…at least I’m back. And I’ll be back in full-force […]

Happy Anniversary Honey. Now Let's Go Kick Cancer's Ass!

August 20, 2014 | 37 Comments

Today (August 21) is mine and Mrs. Dude’s 21st wedding anniversary. Our amazing marriage has survived an earthquake (Northridge of 93), bladder cancer, pulmonary embolisms, celiac disease and a host of other stress-inducers. But nothing quite compares to what we are dealing with right […]

Thank You Glutia…I Needed the Laugh

[Quick Dude note: I’ll be at Jennifer’s Way Bakery this Saturday morning hanging with the wonderful Jennifer E. If you’re in town, stop by for a bagel or two and say hello.] So two nights ago, laying in bed thinking about where my life […]

Let's Write a Book Together! I'm Calling It 'Celiac Disease: The Manual'

August 8, 2014 | 151 Comments

There is no manual for living with celiac disease. No how-to guide to navigate your new life. I assume when you received your diagnosis, you got pretty much the exact same instructions from your doctor that I got from mine: Don’t eat gluten. So […]

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.
