    About Autumn Dawn

    Introduction

    My name is Autumn, and at age 38, I became epi-pen allergic to milk. I’d almost finished a course of allergy reduction shots for outdoor allergens, receiving increasing doses of allergens that were supposed to build up my immunity. Not only didn’t it work, one morning I took a bite of buttermilk pancake and my throat and tongue swelled. Despite the obvious anaphylaxis, I tested negative to skin prick tests. My doctor, bless him, said it doesn’t matter what the test said since we were watching my reaction happen in real time. I got to carry around an epipen, which has saved my life several times since.

    I was a great cook, but now I had to learn to cook with my new allergies, which had probably been mild sensitives before, but now were impossible to ignore...thank God. Because as stubborn as I am, I wouldn’t have gotten to the bottom of my vicious asthma unless I was hit with something I couldn’t brush off. Now I know that wheat sets me off and I’d better be prepared when farmers harvest the wheat fields. I’m terribly allergic to pine tree pollen and I can’t be in the same room with a steaming pizza, or I’ll have a severe asthma attack. Now I know my enemy, and I know how to take care of myself.

    I’m healthier, I get far fewer colds, have more feeling in my hands and feet and my hair is thicker. My nails are stronger and various female troubles are gone. There are other things, but you get the drift. Changing my diet saved my life.

    Of course, I got very tired of eating rice, meat and veggies. Popcorn for breakfast works, but no one wants a steady diet of it. I got excited when I found large bags of affordable gluten free Bob’s Red Mill flour at my local bulk store and bought several kinds, only to discover it was manufactured in a plant that also does soy, which caused me rashes. Frustrated, I bought twenty-five pounds of Pacific rice flour and ordered some flour online.

    Buying specialty flour isn’t cheap. It’s three dollars a pound for the most basic flour and sixteen dollars a pound for some brands of sorghum, and that’s if you can get some that’s not cross contaminated. We have a family of five, and teens are constantly hungry. Let’s not forget shipping, either. I needed something more affordable.

    I went online and did my homework, devoured gluten free cookbooks and experimented. I quickly discovered gums didn’t agree with me and were slimy besides. Also, cooks used WAY too much of it, as well as chia, flax and psyllium, ending up with dry
