I have been in a slump lately, cooked out I guess from Thanksgiving, yet I need to look ahead  to Christmas.   I want to know what you would like to see for recipes posted.   Do you have some Christmas favorites that you just haven’t figured out how to turn Gluten free?    one of the treats I miss are Haystacks which is basically melted butterscotch or chocolate over chow mein noodles. (the dry crunchy kind)   so haven’t been able to enjoy one for over 6 years.

Another thing I miss is cookie decorating parties.  I still go but I can’t enjoy the finished products. Usually I bring a long some of my own cookies but how depressing it is to see 5-6 different types of cookies floating around and me sitting pathetically with my favorite butterscotch chip cookies.   I am thankful that I can still eat sweets but how do you handle the sadness that goes along with the holidays and not being able to participate.  Office Christmas parties which I am attending tomorrow is another hard night where I get to watch people chow on awesome deserts and appetizers as I sit there alone.   Holidays can just be hard sometimes for people with food allergies.

so what do you miss?    How do you handle the holidays?

I want to hear from you!
