Gluten free and other food allergies

I am allergic to countless foods. When I was two years old I had an anaphylactic reaction to fish and later testing revealed I was in fact deathly allergic to all seafood. I have also developed lactose intolerance, severely limiting the dairy products I am able to deat. In addition, I have minor allergies to peanuts, pistachios, and citrus fruits give me heartburn. Often people comment on how awful it must be to be so limited, when in fact I think I am still able to eat wide varieties of different foods.

A good friend of mine is a Celiac, and is unable to eat any food with Gluten in it, knocking out all wheat products. My father is allergic to half the foods on the planet, and I more and more I meet people with significant food allergies.

I want this blog to reflect this increasingly reality and with that in mind I want to share a blog about cooking gluten-free, Gluten-Free Girl. The recipes are amazing, whether you're a Celiac or not.
