Hello Reader, I have so much to share this week, I don’t even know where to begin… so make sure you scroll this whole email. There’s a lot you won’t want to miss. It’s a GF party! 🎉If you’re a Love Me Gluten Free subscriber (my other company), you likely received our very special birthday box this week. Every item inside was chosen to feel like a celebration, because we’re officially turning two this month. 🎉 What started in my basement with 150 boxes has grown into something that’s become part of so many of your lives. Whether you’ve purchased a box or simply cheered us on from the sidelines, thank you. It means so much to me! And you may have also noticed that we had a bit of a glow-up this month. 😊 Keep an eye out for our newly branded boxes (and how cute are these little fans?!). 🪄 Please note our April box is sold out, but you can pre-order our May box today at lovemeglutenfree.com. You won't want to miss our exciting May box for Celiac Disease Awareness Month. More to come... Join Me Live TODAYI love when we get together to talk all things gluten-free, especially this month’s box! Join me LIVE on Facebook today (Friday, April 3) at 11:00 am CDT.

The more friends you invite, the more chances you have to win (and you’ll help us spread the word about this incredible gluten-free community). GLP-1s and Autoimmune Disease - We Need to TalkThis week on the Gluten Free Unwrapped podcast, I had one of the most fascinating conversations with Lorin Smith, founder of Good Gluten Free Grub. Lorin is managing both celiac disease and type 1 diabetes, and a few years ago, she decided to use a GLP-1 to help mitigate symptoms for both. All I can say is… you have to listen to her story. This conversation made me think so differently about GLP-1s, beyond just weight loss drugs, and more as a tool to help manage autoimmune and chronic conditions. Truly mind blown. 🎧 Listen on my blog or wherever you get your podcasts (Apple + Spotify). Brand Spotlight: EpilynxConsider me obsessed with Epilynx, a woman-owned gluten-free skincare and cosmetics company. Epilynx was founded by Dr. Liia, who follows a strict gluten-free diet herself and understands the need for high-quality, safe, and affordable products you can use with confidence. We featured Epilynx's Strawberry Lip Balm in our April Love Me Gluten Free box (adorable, right?), but keep in mind, Epilynx offers so many more products, too. I urge you to take a look at the Epilynx website and check out what they have to offer. I feel like they have so many products that work for all skin types, including mature skin. 👉 And stock up... because the code LOVEMEGF will get you 35% off!! Banza Introduces Wheat PastaBanza recently introduced a new wheat-chickpea pasta. I first saw it at an expo last month and had mixed feelings. This week, they formally launched it to their community, and honestly, I think they did a really good job making the gluten-free community feel seen in the process. The founder acknowledges it head-on: “I recognize a wheat product from Banza might feel unexpected.” He goes on to reassure customers that the wheat pasta will be made in a separate facility, and the packaging will look completely different (it’s bright blue, see it here), so no one picks it up by mistake. Miss GF Manners Tackles Bringing Your Own FoodIs it rude to bring your own food when you have celiac disease or gluten intolerance? Miss GF Manners (that’s me 😊) tackles this question with the nuance and care it deserves. Happy Holidays!Wishing you and your loved ones a beautiful and meaningful Easter (if you celebrate). I hope you enjoy some delicious gluten-free food and a special time with friends and family. And to my Jewish friends, wishing you a Chag Sameach and Happy Passover. See you next week!

Hello Reader, Memorial Day weekend is here (in the US), which means summer is unofficially kicking off. ☀️ More travel. More BBQs. More road trips. More “let’s just grab something quick” moments. And while summer is supposed to feel fun and carefree, I also know this season can throw a lot of curveballs at those of us living gluten-free. Routines go out the window. You're eating out more. People hand you mystery burgers without buns and say, “I think it’s gluten-free?” So here are a few...
Hello Reader, Fourteen years into living with celiac disease, and somehow, this never gets easier. I’m writing you from a business conference. When I registered, they asked about food allergies, and I clearly marked mine on the form, thinking that would be enough. But once I got here? There really wasn’t food for me. I’ve been in this situation enough times to know what to do. I opened the Find Me Gluten Free app, found a nearby spot with GF options, and left the conference to get myself...
Hello Reader, Every time a new Love Me Gluten Free box goes out into the world, I get a little nervous. It’s such a strange feeling. On the one hand, I’m so proud of what I’ve created and curated… and on the other, it feels like I’m putting a piece of myself out there, wondering what everyone will think. If you’ve ever created something and shared it publicly, you probably know exactly what I mean. That said… this May box? She’s a keeper!! I leaned more savory this month after last month’s...
