Bj's Brewhouse-Wichita location

So excited that Bj's came to Wichita! Good news for my fellow GF friends. I ate at one of these in Norman, OK when traveling to Dallas. Such a great GF menu. http://www.bjsbrewhouse.com/sites/default/files/GlutenAllrgnMenu0811_Brnch_R3.pdf
Pizza, soup, and dessert are even on the menu for us :) The Pazooki is to die for, a large warm GF cookie topped with ice cream....um yeah...not too many places that we can go and find that one on the menu.

Picasso's Pizzeria-Any takers?

I am still waiting on a chance to go try Picasso's down in Delano. I have gone down there one time to give it a try and of course, with my luck, all the ovens were broken so they had the whole place shut down for the afternoon. Yes, this IS my kind of luck....I think I was born with it..ho hum.
Anyways, if anyone has been here. let me know what you thought and if you had the gf option or not? I heard there sandwiches are pretty good as well.

Wichita Eagle Thank You

Thanks to one of my friend for bringing me a copy of the FRONT PAGE of the Wichita Eagle the other day. And thank you to the Wichita Eagle for putting a story on gluten free living on he front page :) So exciting to see this!  I have yet to try the deli at Food for Thought, but it is on my list on places to visit.

Sad to see.....

Last week I was wandering down the local Dillons cereal aisle and noticed the "new" gluten free Rice Krispies cereal is on clearance and they are not to be carrying it anymore...:(  Dislike!  I hope this isn't the same in all Dillons and Walmart stores. Bought a few boxes to stock up one since I had coupons...yes, this girl has a hard time buying anything without a coupon :)

Dominos Pizza-Gluten Free Crust Delivered to your door!

Exciting news today for those who are gluten free, Dominoes Pizza has announced that they will be adding a gluten free pizza crust to their menu!  How awesome is that! http://glutenfreeville.com/research/dominos.  It will be offered in a 10 inch only.  Prices will vary depending on location. :) I wondered how long it would take to get a gf pizza delivered to your front door.  The only thing I don't agree with is that Dominoes is stating although they are offering a gf pizza crust, it is not recommended for people with Celiac Disease!  Um...hello!  They cannot guarantee that there is no cross contamination at this point in thier kitchen on work surfaces.  Why go through all this promotion with gf crust when you are still not catering to the majority of the gf population that have Celiacs?

Wichita All About Her Expo

Last weekend I attended the "All About Her Expo" at Century II in downtown Wichita.  As you all probably know by now, if you have Celiac, you are just out of luck when it comes to sampling some of the vendors fine foods that are offered at these types of events.  I would like to thank the wonderful lady who owns the company Brands Fine Foods.  She has wonderful pepper jelly and she sells it at several local stores such as Food for Thought, Green Acres, Kay Wiggins, and Wild at Heart along with others.  She kindly asked if I would like to sample her jelly and I obviously knew I couldn't sample being she was giving samples on non gf crackers.  I told her I am sorry and that I had Celiacs and guess what happened next?  She reached down and grabbed a box of some gf crackers and gave me a sample.  I want to thank her SO much!  I wish more vendors would take this into consideration when at these events.  She just made a new customer out of me :)

I am craving some Local Burger....

I need to make a trip to Lawrence soon so I can stop my cravings for Local Burger, a food joint that specializes in everything local, from elk and buffalo burgers to Kansas grown potatoes.  Take a look at their menu http://www.localburger.com/pdf/local-burger-menu-2011.pdf. Everything I have had there is great, I miss it so much, I don't think I have been in a couple of years.  Just a wonderful lunch suggestion for those in the Lawrence, KS area.
