Meet 'Lil B'

I'd like to introduce you Lil B (short for Little Bertha). She came to live at our house from a friend - Mary L. (a family Friend) to Emily (my daughter) and left behind at home when Big Bertha moved with Emily to Washington and the car could hold no more!! So Lil B kept her residence here with me. I've decided since I am aiming for gluten free cooking and baking for myself now Lil B will by my gluten free girl. A new house (plastic tub) will become her new digs with a dedicated hardware for gluten free activity. I've had lots of people ask if I use dedicated equipment for the gluten free baking that I do, well this shall be my closest attempt. So officially welcome Lil B as we pay homage to Big Bertha her predecessor.

That above introduction was sent to friends/family as a fun update but there is a deeper message within that paragraph...'since I am aiming for gluten free cooking and baking for myself'. As the Autumn of 2022 progressed I struggled to feel well. MANY varied, often seemingly unrelated, symptoms kept surfacing and I honestly didn't feel well most of the time. A yearly physical the beginning of February 2023 found me sharing with the Dr my many varied symptoms. I had a few things in mind that I thought it could be - gluten being one of them. Well his suggestion was to try avoiding gluten. Within 5 days I started to feel better. So I now embark on a personal journey of doing things differently. I have spent time in the past few years experimenting with gluten free food prep because of friends needing gluten free options. Now that experience will broaden to include myself. Thankful for the past experiences I've had. Now there is more room to grow - isn't there always room to grow?
