Oh Maggiano's!!!

In December, my mother-in-law celebrated a milestone birthday and as a surprise, we threw her a party at Maggianos. Although I was unable to attend (I had a nasty Advanced Physiology final with my name on it), my husband sang Maggiano's praises that entire weekend and he brought home extra food.

Maggiano's did a great job of not only throwing a wonderfully catered party, but they also spent time to make sure the celiacs in the group had a satisfying meal. I was a little skeptical when I heard that the party would be at Maggiano's because I'm partial to another local Italian restaurant, but let me tell you - Maggiano's is definitely at the top of list when it comes to gluten-free eating.

I have supplied the link to Maggiano's and I would definitely suggest it the next time you are out and about or the next time you are throwing a little bash.

Hoorah for Whole Foods!!!!!

Hows everyone doing?

I just wanted to give everyone an update: I am currently working fulltime and going through nursing clinicals - so I haven't had much time to update this site. However, my wonderful husband is going to start writing some articles. I know he has some info on Uno's restaurants and their GF pizza as well as some recipes and other things. Hopefully he'll have some of the articles up within the week.

I hope everyone is having a great 2009 and that they're living and loving the GF life.
