Grilled Cheese Please!

I went to the Pop Shop all the time before I was diagnosed with Celiac. I thought I'd never get to go there again because of all the gluten. Just this week, we went there. I had no idea how many delicious gluten free things were there! They had french toast of all sorts, grilled cheese, milkshakes, salads, and french fries. All gluten-free!

I had no idea what to eat, there was so much! When I made up my mind, I ordered grilled cheese. I'm still getting used to the gluten free bread, so I wasn't expecting much. I took one bite. WOW! The bread was amazing! The warm, gooey cheese melted on my fingers. The moist bread gave flavor. It was mouthwatering! I think I'll have that again! I hope I can go again soon, there are still so many things to eat on the gluten-free menu!!!

Gluten-Free Family Support

Frozen Hot Chocolate in NYC!
It's been about three months since I developed Celiac. So far, my Mom has been a big help with what foods to eat and not to eat, answering my questions about Celiac, and making me feel comfortable in this new world. Also, at parties and sleepovers, everyone usually eats pizza and cupcakes and other things with gluten. I just had a sleepover a few weeks ago and my Mom bought me a gluten-free pizza and some gluten-free cupcakes so I could eat the things everyone else was eating. There are always a bunch of things I can eat when it comes to parties of any sort. I'm really glad I know my family is supporting me!
