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.

Bird is the Word

I'm proud to say that I get my Turkey every year from a local farm, called Buckley Farm.  Their Turkeys are cage-free and pasture raised, and are fed a diet that is GMO-free and Soy-free.  We have a local mom and pop butcher shop, called Primal.  Primal performs the brining process for me, so that I don't have to worry about it.  They are extremely aware of Gluten Free needs.  My bird is 100% safe to eat.
