Harmons


After Summer's gymnastics class today we went to HArmon's to check out their gluten-free section.  I asked where it was.  "Oh, we don't have a section.  Everything is just mixed in on all the aisles."
UGH.  Seriously?  So with my two little ones in tow I started hunting.  After a couple aisles I finally figured out they had purple signs below a lot of the gluten-free items and that helped.  I found a few things.....





I'm too tired to even go into details on this all.  I'm grateful for gluten-free products.  I'm grateful for a big salary so we can afford these freaking expensive food products.  

I thought I did pretty good today.  Rice Krispies for breakfast.  Taco soup and "rice" crackers for lunch.  Then I started looking on the can for tomato soup....which I put in the Taco soup.... and found wheat flour.

I'm going to have a big learning curve with this.  I guess I should be grateful I don't suffer from the typical symptoms of Celiac.  So that while I am learning how to adjust my diet when I have slip ups like the stupid taco soup I at least won't be stuck in the bathroom with problems.

I'm tired.  Partly because of the mental exhaustion involved in knowing I have to change my diet to gluten-free and being sad about that.
