    Exactly! Best to find something that doesn't even want flour. I do like the gluten free Graham crackers ground up and put into a sawdust pie. Tastes as good as the gluten-full version.

    Insane!!!! Not sure when I last updated this thread.... Kid 2 is getting married end of summer. The woman is a fantastic match for my son. I actually think that they will be happily married. A bear tore open a bunch of my coops... ate over half my poultry. I blame all the Californians...
