Hi

Actually, many thanks to the folks who are joining the gluten-free parade (and not because they have celiac disease, wheat allergy or wheat sensitivity - where the latter two are still open to debate). As a result, an absolutely amazing variety of gluten-free foods are on the grocery shelves. OMG, I can have pizza, bagels, cookies of all kinds, macaroni and cheese! This is in stark contrast to the bad old days when there was only Ener-G bread (like eating cardboard) and their excellent flours so that you could make your own bread.

As to vodka, you won’t catch any of my Russian friends drinking Stoly when there is Luksusowa (a fine Polish potato vodka) on the table. Great drunk neat - just sayin’.<img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/toast.gif" alt="" />
