Hi Barbara, I fine tuned a banana muffin recipe tonight that I thought you would appreciate since it is GF and turned out pretty well. I am posting the recipe on my website with comments. Mrs. Abbey -
Here are some of my favorite websites. Most contain a slice of life as well... and I like that! It's nice to know how other people incorporate a gluten-free diet into a gluten-laden world. http://glutenfreegirl.blogspot.com/ http://glutenfree.wordpress.com/ http://glutenfreegoddess.blogspot.com/
