Hello my dear! I cannot eat gluten in any way shape or form. this includes wheat, barley, rye, spelt, kamut etc.

I am happy to forgo a few dishes if necessary, and happily bring my own bread.

I would love to know what is on the menu so that I can plan accordingly. I realize this is a crummy allergy to cook for (BOY do I ever!), and certainly don't want you to change everything around just for me. But if you are thickening stews, I can give you suggestions that won't inculde my allergens. If you were going to cook barley, I can eat rice- and it is just as cheap and period, unlike rice bread, which I will bring and have to eat anyway.

Let me know when you can....

pshh.. gluten allergy is pretty common. I'm lucky in Deep River to have access to a lot of gluten free supplies. I intended to use cornstarch for thickening, not period I know but it gives me a much smoother result for my beef pie gravy. I might just use arrowroot flour though. I also do not mind making your 'funny' bread. I am just glad you let me know with enough notice so I could provide you with other food choices!
I've made Cristabell vegetarian options before so making exceptions for people is not an issue.

Really, don't bother with the bread, it is a pain for no reason, and I don't mind bringing it. If you are interested in fussing with Pie crust on my account, I will count you a braver woman than I. (Of course if you just want to give me a small bowl of filling, that would be fine too!)

Thank you love!
