  • “If you’ve never tried a podcast before, they are a great way to listen and learn while you are busy doing something else – cooking, hiking, driving or just relaxing. You choose!” Cinde Little, everydayglutenfreegourmet.ca

It’s the beginning of the month, which means Sue and Ellen cover any number of topics!

There has been very positive feedback on the stickers and wristbands available through www.celiackidstuff.com.

The 200th episode of the podcast is coming up, and we’re turning the tables, so Ellen is asking me questions.  You can send your questions, or videos (we’ll only use the audio) to ellen@theceliacscene.com.

We shine a light on a gluten free bakery in Winnipeg calls Cocoabeans.  They have recently released four mixes that you can easily make at home – there’s even videos for any of you who might be baking novices.  Introducing Cocoabeans Gourmet Gluten-Free Mixes

The Canadian Celiac Association is hosting another great virtual conference this year on November 13th and 14th.  The 13th (Saturday) is aimed towards those who have been diagnosed less than two years, whereas the program on the 14th (Sunday) is more in depth for those who have been gluten free for more than two years. Anyone can sign up for both days.  The conference is free of charge, but you are asked to give a contribution towards costs if you can.

Canadian Celiac Association Virtual Conference November 13 & 14. The Celiac Scene will be there! Sign up for FREE!

If you are new to gluten free, or need a refresher, Cinde Little, the Everyday Gluten Free Gourmet has a new course called Healthy Me focusing on managing a healthy gluten free lifestyle. Find out more at  New to Gluten Free?

Ellen talks about a food labelling study looking at accuracy regarding allergens Accuracy in Food Labelling a Concern for the Allergic and a study that looks at issues celiacs encounter while dating, Celiacs Who Date Report Anxiety and Admit to Taking Risks When Dining Out

Sue mentions a little bit about my new co-host on my other podcast Gluten Free Weigh In. In early December she will be introducing a male co-host who has just been diagnosed with celiac disease and is involved in a program awaiting bariatric surgery.  His story will be so interesting.
