<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> I don't know why, I guess I was bored or curious, but last evening I was flipping through the TV channels & a sitcom called something like, "Yes Dear!" or Yes M'am!" was on. The leading male character was musing about losing another employee. He wondered if he was a bad boss or what. He said, "I always bring a cake for everybody's birthday." Someone else interjected, "Yes, but it's a gluten free carrot cake w/o nuts!" "Well, you wouldn't expect me to bring something I can't eat would you?" ***Laugh track, laugh track, ha ha ha*** Hmmm.... We're always happy when we get a little publicity so that the word can get out to others who may be suffering. But this isn't the kind of publicity we need. This makes us look like kooks with a diet fettish, rather than sincere people committed to our better health through conscientious adherence to a therapudic diet.
