Thanksgluten... I mean Thanksgiving

Yeah, holidays kind of sucked for a long time.  When you're initially diagnosed with Celiac Disease, you go through this semi-denial phase where you still go to the bars and restaurants and dinner parties.

I was going to "Thirsty Thursdays" - a weekly tradition in my office - with all of my coworkers; and drinking things like Rum and OJ *gag* when I used to be a beer and whisky girl.  I would go to restaurants and dinner parties and eat nothing but salad, and end up cross contaminated anyway.
