A group of Bay residents gathered at the CEC on December 15 to enjoy a gluten-free cookie exchange. Attendees, who regularly cook and eat gluten-free to accommodate the dietary needs of themselves or a family member, each brought one variety of holiday treat to share, so that everyone went home with an assortment of baked goods, after sampling the offerings, of course!
Organizers Monique Glover and Sharon Jessup Joyce, who are gluten-free, planned the event as a kick-off to launch regular meetings of a local gluten-free group to share tips, recipes and dishes, and possibly shared purchasing of ingredients that are more expensive or challenging to source.
Look for more information about the new group here in the new year.
