Nine Things Everyone Should Know

Hear are nine things everyone should know about people with allergies or celiac.

1) We are just like you!- 

Even if we can't eat a slice of bread or fish,doesn't mean we are subhuman or not as good as you! 

2) We can't help it!-

We don't have control over what we can't and can't have. So stop giving us a hard time. 

3) We have working eyes and ears!-

Yes we see your looks in the store when we buy a gluten free product or allergen free one. We hear your comments and snickering. We don't like it, get over yourself(and see number 2.)

4) We have lives!-

Yep we can go to parties,movie,and date others. We don't live under rocks! 

5) The AF/GF community is not a cult or gang!-

This is self explanatory! :D

6) We can be anything we want to be!-

 Hard to believe right, we can be teachers,moms and dads,kids,doctors,chefs, anything!

7) It's not a FAD!-

OMG! The people that think this....you need education!

8) Look out for us!- 

Nothing is more sweet than a friend looking out for another! It makes our day(most of the time.)

9) We don't hate you!-

We only dislike you when you mess with us directly or our AF/GF family! So don't mess with the "gang." 

Great Breakfast Ideas and Tips

Well is summer for most people( I still have seven days of school.)On that note congrats to all the grads! I can't believe that I'm graduating from middle school in a few days!

With summer starting a lot of teens and kids go to camp,or have summer sports(or lay on the couch, not a bad plan! I would if I could.) With summer activities many are more active and in the hot sun, so breakfast can make or break your day. 

This summer I will have really early band practice.We practice in the hot summer heat. Marching band is a very strenuous sport believe it or not. On average we burn more calories in our shows than football players in a game. So therefore a great breakfast is the key to success!(FYI,look you probably learned something before you even got half way through.)

Just a few reminders-

-DO NOT EAT/DRINK MILK PROUDUCTS(it will make you sick with the heat!!!)

-Don't drink sugary or carbonated drinks with breakfast

-Eat some protien and carbs(Energy peoples!)

Some ideas-

-Gluten free pancakes(made the night before) with a little PB or nut butter(I love Justin's Almond butter) and a piece of fruit.

-Eggs with spinach and tomatoes,and a piece of fruit.

It doesn't even have to be breakfast food!

-Brown rice,veggies,and some chicken breast! Add a piece of fruit and you set.

Who says you can't have healthy leftovers from the night before,right!
