Falling Off The Face Of The World

Ok..so I haven't had the time to come up with anything new for the blog lately and I apologize. Things have been pretty hectic and crazy in my life. So I apologize for falling off the face of the world. Look forward to a post on the upcoming Winter Solstice, that's my next project!
I am now trying to learn how to eat again...as in an ENTIRELY new diet. Must go gluten free, dairy free,avoid soy, and almost vegetarian. It's complicated. But it will make me feel much better. And I can say after only two weeks that yes, I do feel much better. It's hard though since it's totally different than how I was raised to eat. It's sad. I've been a cook for almost ten years and I am TOTALLY LOST! So I've been searching lots of websites and printing off lots of recipes and cooking lots of new stuff. Like Quinoa. Haven't decided if I like the stuff yet. My wonderful father is taking me out to go shopping at Planet Organic tomorrow so I can get some funky ingredients like gluten free flour and xantham gum. Between this diet and the Zyban though I am feeling WAY better. In fact I haven't felt this good in almost five years. SO please be patient. I'm going through a major life change...sounds like I am going through menopause! *giggles*.
If any of you are vegetarian/vegan/gluten free/etc and have any advice I would love it!
*hugs and smooches for all*
