Gluten Free Oats

For those of you who know me you know that I suffer from celiac sprue. I am not able to eat anything that contains wheat, rye, barley, oats or a few other unique grains. Oats are bad only because of cross contamination with the other grains. When asked what I missed most about my limited grains I would always reply "I miss oatmeal". When I was first diagnosed with celiac, I looked for a pure source of oats that I could eat and was unable to locate any. About a week ago I was reading in my Living Without magazine and noticed that a few of the recipes called for gluten free oats. I quickly called Paul and asked him if he would google and see if he could find some and to my wondrous surprise he did: GlutenFreeOats.com. I have to admit I cried. In the beginning when I first started to limit my diet to foods that didn't include gluten it was extremely overwhelming to realize what I couldn't eat. But with time, just like everything else ,it became much easier. I have had oatmeal 3 times this week. I am also looking forward to making oatmeal lace cookies soon.
