I re-organized my entire kitchen today to make it more celiac disease friendly. I now have designated shelves of my fridge and pantry strictly gluten free and vegan. I also have kind of a funny story as to why I did this. Yesterday morning I woke to my 4 year old eating a slice of bread over my head and getting crumbs all over my face and hair. When I asked him what he was doing he said 'eating toast'. I said 'i see that, why are you eating over me?! Gluten makes mommy sick'. He answered 'oh i thought it was gluten free'
Kids do some strange things sometimes but it was good because it opened up a conversation to talk about my disease with him. He now clearly understands that eating bread over my head is a big no-no as well as mixing gluten free products with his products that have gluten in them.
