Like seriously, do not talk to me in the morning unless you've got a shot of espresso in hand. I'm also a Starbuck devotee. And let me say this for those of you about to bash me for spending so much money at Starbucks: a friend and I recently went to McDonald's (her choice, not mine) and I decided to try a French Vanilla latte, which cost me $5 bucks so I could've had a Starbucks for the same price and <i>actually enjoyed it</i>, ughhh, lol.</span><img alt="" border="0" height="1" src="https://ir-na.amazon-adsystem.com/e/ir?t=myfavthi01-20&language=en_US&l=li2&o=1&a=B06ZY7R238" style="border: none; font-family: helvetica; margin: 0px; text-align: left;" width="1" /></div><p></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Anyway, getting back on track, I bought myself a <a href="https://amzn.to/3Ri67zB" target="_blank">Nespresso Essenza Mini</a></span><span style="font-family: helvetica;"> a few years go and I absolutely love it! I find the pods to be super cost effective - I can buy a box of 10 Starbuck pods for only $8.00!! <a href="https://amzn.to/3sHNEUQ" target="_blank">Nespresso Indonesia dark roast coffee</a> is one of my favs but I was so excited to find out <a href="https://www.nespresso.com/ca/en/order/capsules/original/original-advent-calendar" target="_blank">Nespresso has an advent calendar</a>!!! Just a few days later, they're already sold out online and at most retailers, sorry :(</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Anyway again, I have to admit I did panic after I received my advent calendar as it listed all sorts of flavors, which any Celiac-challenged person knows, could be a recipe for disaster. So I went online to research and found this statement from Nespresso:</span></p><p><span style="background-color: white;"><span face=""Google Sans", arial, sans-serif" style="color: #040c28;"></span></span></p><blockquote><span style="background-color: white;"><span face=""Google Sans", arial, sans-serif" style="color: #040c28;">"Nespresso's coffee capsules do not contain gluten nor any other allergens</span><span face=""Google Sans", arial, sans-serif" style="color: #202124;">.</span></span><span face=""Google Sans", arial, sans-serif" style="background-color: white; color: #202124;"> Any references to “nutty” or “cocoa” notes are components of the aromatic profile (naturally occurring in the coffee bean) and do not suggest their physical presence in the coffee capsule."</span></blockquote><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">Phew! I knew <i>I knew</i> that, but my Celiac brain told me to check, check and triple-check! I actually love that the flavors are "components of the aromatic profile" as it makes me feel similar to a sophisticated wine drinker, lol.</span></p><p><span style="font-family: helvetica;">So you're safe, fellow Celiac-challenged Nespresso coffeeholics!

It's hard for me to believe that I'm already a 12-year survivor of breast cancer, time just flies by. But in my case, I'm still in the process of having my final reconstruction surgeries done even after all these years. </span><div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: verdana;">In the past 8 months I've have 3 surgeries, one emergency. So that means I've gone through a lot of post-op bandages, I mean A LOT. The advice from surgeons is to always keep the area dry, but everyone has to shower, so just how do you tell if the bandage is wet? Up until now, I could never tell. I'd just take it off and replace it with another expensive bandage - it really felt like I was putting money into the garbage, especially after realizing the bandage was indeed, still dry.</span></div><div><span style="font-family: verdana;"><br /></span></div><div><span style="font-family: verdana;">Wound care generally sucks, but the possibility of compromising my surgery by wearing a wet bandage has always been a source of frustration and anxiety for me.

If you have celiac disease, eating gluten triggers an immune response in your small intestine. Over time, this reaction damages your small intestine's lining and prevents it from absorbing some nutrients (malabsorption). The intestinal damage often causes diarrhea, fatigue, weight loss, bloating and anemia, and can lead to serious complications." - Mayo Clinic</p></blockquote></span></div><div><span style="font-family: arial;">Since my diagnosis approximately 10 years ago, I've dabbled with gluten free beer but nothing really ever did it for me.

Implementation will take up to six years for compliance, so we encourage our community to be diligent during this time. </p><p style="background-color: white; border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; color: #54595f; font-family: Montserrat, sans-serif; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant-east-asian: inherit; font-variant-numeric: inherit; line-height: 1.6; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 20px; vertical-align: baseline;"><em style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">“This is a major milestone for people with celiac disease and gluten disorders,”</em> says Melissa Secord, National Executive Director of the CCA, <em style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: inherit; font-stretch: inherit; font-variant: inherit; font-weight: inherit; line-height: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">“Health Canada has shown its commitment to protect Canadian consumers who suffer from severe food reactions and made it a priority to protect their health, safety and increase accessibility.

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I've been a HUGE fan of Burt's Bees Honey Lip Balm for years! I love it because it stays put and isn't greasy. But I'm also Celiac, so - is Burt's Bees gluten free?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Here's the answer straight from the <a href="https://www.burtsbees.ca/faqs/" target="_blank">Burt's Bees website</a>:</span><br />
<br />
<h4 style="color: #222222; font-family: Proxima, sans-serif; font-size: 18px; margin: 5px 0px 10px; padding: 0px;">
I am gluten-restricted. What products are appropriate for my use?</h4>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="color: #222222; font-family: Proxima, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px; text-align: center;">
We cannot provide a list of Burt’s Bees products that are safe for use with your allergy because our products may have been manufactured on a shared line with products containing gluten, or raw materials used in our products may have been processed in a facility that also processes products containing gluten. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="color: #222222; font-family: Proxima, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px; text-align: center;">
Therefore, we are unable to state that any Burt’s Bees products are “gluten-free.” Several of our products are known to contain certain allergens, because raw materials that contain or are made from the allergen are intentional ingredients in those products. </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="color: #222222; font-family: Proxima, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 10px; padding: 0px; text-align: center;">
Please carefully review the ingredient list of any product prior to use, particularly because the listed ingredients for a product may change. If you have a known allergy to gluten, you should always consult with your physician if you have questions regarding whether it is safe for you to use a particular product.</blockquote>

<h3>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>So, while Burt's Bees can't confirm or deny, may I suggest an alternative?</i></span></h3>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><a href="https://www.moodybee.com/" target="_blank">Moody Bee</a> is a great product line that includes both tinted and flavored lip balm such as Banana Cream Pie, Vanilla and Peppermint, and Lavender London Fog. Wowza!! And the coolest part? Moody Bee is a small Canadian company located in beautiful Kimberley, BC. So how do I know Moody Bee is gluten free? Because Krista Moody, co-owner of Moody Bee told me so ;)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">You can pick up a sweet Starter Pack of 5 (!) Moody Bee Lip Balm for just CAD $17!! They're a total steal. And if you're in Canada, it's even better as shipping is FREE.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I've always thought of tequila and margaritas as being vacation drinks. It was just a few years ago that I actually tried a margarita for the first time ever. I know, right??! How loco am I?? Lol. Then I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease. So, is tequila gluten free?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">First, just what is tequila? You can think of tequila as being like champagne, which must come from the Champagne province of France, in order to in fact be champagne. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">It's the same for tequila. A</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">s per Mexican government regulations, tequila is made with either 100% Blue Agave or Agave Azul (a blue agave varietal) and must be grown in 5 central Mexican states: Guanajuato, Jalisco, Michoacan, Nayarit and Tamaulipas. Otherwise, no es tequila.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>And while I understand traditional tequila made from agave is naturally gluten free, I began to get curious about pre-mixed, ready to drink tequila cocktails and those I was nonchalantly ordering at restaurants. </i></span></blockquote>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I've heard two rumors of concern: that darker or gold tequilas may contain caramel coloring (which almost always contain gluten), and that less expensive brands of tequila (which, as per below, wouldn't even be legal to be labelled as tequila) are mixto, meaning they're not entirely from the agave plant and use other sugars, like cane, in their fermentation process. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">And, si, I know, I should never even mention mixto (brands including Jose Cuervo Especial, Xalixco, Sauza and Olmeca) </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">and <i>tequila</i> in the same sentence, as that's basically sacrilege to purist tequila drinkers.</span><br />

</tbody></table>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Here are some fun tequila facts courtesy of <a href="https://cuervo.com/" target="_blank">Jose Cuervo</a>:</span><br />
<br />
<ul>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">tequila is always distilled twice</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Jose Cuervo has been producing tequila for more than 250 years</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Mezcal (aka mescal) no es tequila; it's distilled only once, is derived from other agave species, and may or may not have the elusive worm (tequila does not)</span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">resposado, meaning rested, denotes tequila that's rested in wooden barrels for two months minimum, as per government regulations</span></li>
<li><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">añejo means aged, and for tequila, this designation means it's been aged in oak barrels for one year minimum</span></span></li>
</ul>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So, to get back on track, is tequila gluten free? I contacted both Jose Cuervo and </span><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Patrón</span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> Spirits to find out.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">First, I'm <i>so</i> excited to know that all </span><span style="background-color: white; font-size: 16px;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><a href="https://www.patrontequila.com/" target="_blank">Patrón</a></span></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><a href="https://www.patrontequila.com/" target="_blank"> Spirits</a> products are gluten free!! So I can safely consume all the XO Cafe I want. Well, within reason, of course. Or not ;)</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">But, Proximo Spirits, importers and distributors for <a href="https://cuervo.com/" target="_blank">Jose Cuervo</a>, stated this:</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="background-color: white; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 40px;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Many Proximo Spirits brands are distilled from grains containing gluten, which removed some or all of the gluten. Unfortunately the gluten content of the products listed below cannot be verified and may contain gluten:<br /><br />1800 Ready to Drink Products, Boodles, Bushmills Products, Canned Margarita Products, Golden Margarita Products, Hangar One, Jose Cuervo Ready to Drink Products, Matusalem, Old Camp, Pendleton Whisky (Original, Midnight, 1910, Directors' Reserve), Stranahan's, Three Olives Vodka, Tin Cup, Zarco.</span></blockquote>
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><i>WOW! That's more than concerning for me because after reading the label, it seemed as though Jose Cuervo Ready to Drink Canned Margaritas were indeed gluten free so I've been consuming them off and on for the last 2 years!! OMG :( </i></span></blockquote>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Jose Cuervo continued on to say:</span><br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="background-color: white; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-left: 40px;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">We do have the following products which are certified Gluten Free:<br /><br />1800 Silver, Reserva 1800 Añejo, Reserva 1800 Reposado, Reserva 1800 Coconut, Agavero, Agavero Orange, Gran Centenario Añejo, Gran Centenario Plata, Gran Centenario Reposado, Maestro Dobel Añejo, Maestro Dobel Blanco, Maestro Dobel Diamonte, Maestro Dobel Reposado, Extra Añejo Jose Cuervo Reserva de la Familia, Jose Cuervo Especial Gold, Jose Cuervo Especial Silver, Jose Cuervo Platino Reserva de la Familia, Jose Cuervo Tradicional Reposado, & Jose Cuervo Tradicional Silver, Kraken Original, Kraken Dark Label, Kraken Dark Roast</span><span style="background-color: transparent;"> </span></blockquote>
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span><br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Obviously I need to step up my label reading game. Damn. Double damn. I'll have to safely stick with <span style="background-color: white;">Patrón and Kraken rum for now. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">As someone with Celiac Disease who sometimes feels I'm getting 'glutened', I'm constantly on the lookout for hidden sources of gluten that could be poisoning my body. Besides going through each and every one of my vitamins and prescription medications (I'm also a 9 year breast cancer survivor) with my pharmacist, I began to wonder about other items, including my toothpaste. Is Crest toothpaste gluten free?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Here's the email response I received from Procter & Gamble Canada:</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">We all generally brush our teeth at least 2 times per day. But as a Celiac-challenged person, I began to wonder - is Sensodyne toothpaste gluten free?</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">According to their US website, "Sensodyne products do not contain gluten as a direct ingredient. However, we cannot exclude the presence of trace amounts of gluten in these products as a result of third-party manufacturing processes because GSK Consumer Healthcare does not test the final products for gluten."</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Here's the email response I received from </span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Healthcare Canada:</span></span><br />
<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "graphik" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px;">GlaxoSmithKline Consumer Healthcare (GSKCH) only uses ingredients of high quality in its products.</span></span> </blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "graphik" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px;">Following a review of the product formulations and supplier documentation, we can confirm that Sensodyne toothpaste does not contain gluten as a direct ingredient, or ingredients derived from barley or rye. Certain Sensodyne products contain sorbitol, which may be derived from either corn or wheat. However, the suppliers of our sorbitol have declared that the ingredient is highly processed and does not contain gluten.</span></span></blockquote>
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: "graphik" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.6667px;">Please note that GSKCH does not routinely test for the presence of gluten in the final product and cannot rule out the presence of trace quantities, as a result of third party manufacturing processes.</span></span></blockquote>
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Obviously these are both legal-oriented responses. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I get that they don't test their finished products, but generally for Celiacs, this is a red-flag answer. </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So if someone has Celiac disease, should they use Sensodyne toothpaste? Imho, probably not, although I'm a huge fan.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Just like any good Canuck, I can enjoy a traditional Canadian Caesar cocktail made with Clamato juice, worcestershire sauce and a generous amount of vodka, topped with a splash of hot sauce and a celery stalk. But wait, is that classic Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce gluten free?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Hotly debated, the answer according to Lea & Perrins </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">is a yes or a no, depending on the version that's manufactured in your country of origin. In both </span><i style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><a href="http://www.kraftcanada.com/brands/lea-perrins/products" target="_blank">Canada</a> </i><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">and the</span><i style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> <a href="https://www.leaandperrins.co.uk/our-sauce" target="_blank">UK</a>, </i><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce is </span><i style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">not</i><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> gluten free as it's prepared with malt vinegar derived from barley.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Is Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce gluten free in the US? Yes, it is. According to the <a href="https://www.leaperrins.com/search?SearchKey=gluten%20free" target="_blank">Lea & Perrins</a> website, it contains distilled white vinegar (not malt vinegar as with the Commonwealth versions) and natural flavorings (which would be identified if any gluten was present as per FDA requirements).</span></div>

<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">So, there you have it, mystery solved. If someone asks you, is </span><span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce gluten free? You can confidently say no, no, yes - for Canada, the UK and the US, respectively.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">There's something about French fashion that inspires and delights me. Do you feel the same? I think the biggest appeal of <a href="https://www.pinterest.ca/kahnni/my-french-wardrobe-obsession/" target="_blank">my French wardrobe obsession</a> is the possibility of looking <i>tres chic</i> during any event or any time of day without effort, and having a true minimalist wardrobe with easy to mix and match pieces can give you just that. And the bonus here is also having an organized closet.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">I truly think the key to building a classic French wardrobe is simplicity. By choosing basic pieces that work together, you can create any number of fashionable combinations to take you through day and night. In regards to colors, think navy, black, beige and white for the most stylish and combinable options.</span></div>
