Blackbird Bakery Gluten-Free

Maybe once or twice you might have heard me mention that my SisterB is allergic to wheat. Before this realization I never knew about a gluten-free way of life. I personally do not have a problem with wheat or gluten, but now gluten-free ingredients and recipes stand out to me. It's nice to know I'll have a few choices when my SisterB comes to visit rather than relying on her to fix the menu.

The only qualm I have with this cookbook is that there are at least a handful of ingredients that I have looked high and low for and cannot find anywhere!
