Sweet or savory - what’s your pick?? Easter brunch this year featured a trip to France (I wish) 🇫🇷🇫🇷🇫🇷

Been on a major crepe kick recently thanks to a post in legalnomads gluten free travel FB group (go… https://t.co/8vZSqq9BGu

Which pumpkin cookies are you reaching for? Pumpkin chocolate chip on the left, pumpkin with cinnamon sugar on the right. 🎃

Why pumpkin? You know those days where you wake up and feel like cookies? This is what you… https://t.co/RB3Rv1ezyk

@British_Airways I appreciate your response, but that doesn't work. I don't know the BA flight number (only the AA flight number - was a flight operated by BA though) and it seems like I need to call you to get it since we already cancelled the reservation through American. Is there another way?

[Wheatless Wanderlust @Wheatlesswander]

@British_Airways Hey there! We've been trying to get a hold of you all for about a week now. We were due to fly with you (though booked tix through American Airlines) and purchased seats and would like a voucher for those seats. Already got the flight taken care of. Can you help?

[Wheatless Wanderlust @Wheatlesswander]

@TravelexIns I've been trying to get a hold of you for well over a week now. We have a policy for a trip to Europe that we ended up canceling, and we'd just like to change our travel dates (or get a voucher for a later date, if possible, given the uncertainty right now).

Have you ever thought to use potatoes as a pizza crust base? I hadn’t.

This is our last supper in Colombia at @birdhousecol. Great pizza on a potato crust, and the best part is they don’t cook other pizzas, so the… https://t.co/P3BHrT8lCO

@gfreefun @FrankGregoire This is my experience 100% of the time. Soggy. Plus one of first ingredients is corn flour, which makes it definitely not carbless.

[Wheatless Wanderlust @Wheatlesswander]

@AmericanAir I have a flight to Spain through the UK in roughly two weeks. Are you all canceling that flight given the new travel restrictions? That would be the right thing to do.

Raise your hand if you love a leisurely brunch on the weekend? 🤷‍♂️

If your hand is raised, then brunch at cafesteppingstone in Getsemani is a must while you’re in Cartagena.⠀

Current mood: dreaming of #glutenfree red velvet cake 🥰

[Wheatless Wanderlust @Wheatlesswander]

@gfreefun @CeliacKaydiiMac Absolutely - 100% agree on all fronts. But if you’re not willing/able (I’m not a lawyer, who knows what the background is) to defend it, making a more unique and differentiated symbol would make sense. Which, similar to you, is what I think probably happened here.

[Wheatless Wanderlust @Wheatlesswander]

@CeliacKaydiiMac @gfreefun @GlutenDotOrg Totally. They’ll have to do some education for consumers, which costs time and $. But I’d argue that their current/old logo is confusing too, given all the people who are copying it with a slight twist on their packaging. So long term hopefully it leads to more clarity.

[Wheatless Wanderlust @Wheatlesswander]

@gfreemaui @gfreefun @GlutenDotOrg This is my view of the logo change - harder to copy and trick consumers into thinking something is certified when it’s not. Like it or not, the old logo is pretty easy to mimic. If nothing else, this new direction is certainly more differentiated.

[Wheatless Wanderlust @Wheatlesswander]

@CeliacKaydiiMac @gfreefun @GlutenDotOrg Of course you wouldn’t recognize it now, but I’d bet their goal is that after a while, you would recognize it the same way you recognize the old logo. That takes time. And this new direction seems to be more differentiated from the myriad of copycats I’ve seen on the market.

[Wheatless Wanderlust @Wheatlesswander]

@gf_traveller @gfreefun @GlutenDotOrg I think we need to give it time to be “known” considering they’re just rolling it out. Is there a reason you couldn’t just do the same thing (only buy/recommend product with logo), but with the new logo? Although I totally hear you and agree 100% on the simplicity front.

I've heard that coronavirus is going to cause a massive shortage of books, which will be essential when we're all stuck at home, so it's very important for everyone to rush out and start panic-buying novels. Thank you.

GLUTEN FREE CARTAGENA: First stop - pezetarianctg.

They serve up fresh fish in the form of sushi, bowls, and ceviche. And when you’re in Cartagena, you HAVE to try ceviche.

@GlutenFreeMrsD We’ve got 3 months in Europe starting March 25 and we’re probably going to reroute around Italy, but other than that not planning on cancelling
