Thanks to Peace River Grocery Stores & Mocha Cafe Chef Rocks!

Wow, I really have to say thanks to our local grocery stores.  They have made going gluten-free much easier for me and my daughter.  Taeya has had stomach problems for over a year so after eliminating a particular item and dairy for a while with inconsistent results I finally took the leap to going gluten-free and it worked!  With in a week she was sleeping through the night all week! No pain, no gas, just a happy kid.  Well… not so happy… she would get very angry when anyone around her ate anything that she couldn’t, which is why I teamed up with her and went gluten free too.  It was a good choice because I already lost 4 pounds!  YAY!  And I have a healthy kid! Double YAY!   And its not so difficult not having Wheat bread because there is an alternative gluten-free bread, cookies, crackers, and pastas you can purchase at the CO-OP, IGA, Walmart, and No Frills. Now not all of them are to our liking, and it takes a “taste test” to see if that brand is to your taste buds liking, but we found the bread, beagles so far are great when toasted.  The cookies that look like Oreos are delish. 🙂 Matter of fact they are hard to keep in the house cause Bob keeps eating them on us.  So thanks to our local grocers for giving us an alternative.  And I have to give a big thanks to Chef Charles at the Mocha Cafe in the Belle Centre.  He has been making Taeya gluten free meals every time we show up… It makes Taeya feel very special and spoiled.   You Rock Chef Charles!!!
