I also wrote this week about S'Better Farms' gluten-free beef corn dogs, part of a product line that includes some delicious chicken entrees.
I've added a "Coffeehouses" category to the GF-friendly restaurant list that includes cafés that serve gluten-free snacks.

Kids With Food Allergies is sponsoring a Family Fun Event & Expo on Sunday, September 13 at Whole Foods in North Wales, Pennsylvania. The event runs from noon to 3 p.m. and is free for all attendees. There will be a children's dance-a-thon and other activities for kids along with allergy-friendly (and gluten-free) food samples and vendor information.
A couple weeks ago in this space, my older son wrote about his wonderful experience at Camp Celiac in Rhode Island this summer. As soon as I picked him up, he told me that he was excited to go back next year. So we were startled to learn this week that the organizer of the camp since its inception 10 years ago has several family-related health issues that preclude her from continuing her work on the camp going forward and, as a result, there will be no more Camp Celiac programs there.
We met many parents whose children returned year after year and told us that the camp was the highlight of their children's summers. While our son only went once, he was fortunate to have had an opportunity to meet and play with other kids with celiac disease and not have to worry about food for nearly a week. We wish Tanis and her family all the best and thank her for all of her hard work.
Enjoy the long weekend!
