Wow big turnout for tonight's meeting. It was good to see lots of new faces and hear their stories. I really hope that the group can help these new members ease their mines in knowing that living gluten free is not as hard as it may first seem.
Tonight was recipe exchange night and several people provided copies of their recipes, and some even brought samples of their yummies! I took my favorite pizza crust recipe as well as the peanut butter chocolate pie I so enjoy.
Ken and Karen brought a motherload of freebees from various gluten free food companies: Bob's Red Mill, Quin0a, and others. Bob's Red Mill send 20+ bags of their new GF Corn Meal! The same with Quinoa, loads of their corn+quinoa blend pasta. This is really amazing how these two companies chose to be so giving and supplying these samples.
Tonight Heidi also covered the proposal of developing a board for the group, pres, secretary, public relations, etc. Casey and I would definitely like to help, but need to figure out just how much time we can provide since Tyler and Hailey keep up pretty busy. We will see, I know that if the group continues to grow like this we are definitely going to need some sort of board of people to keep things running smoothly.
Thanks again to Heidi for organizing the meeting. Thanks Ken and Karen for contacting these companies about samples and bringing those samples to the meeting.
