    Exactly! Best to find something that doesn't even want flour. I do like the gluten free Graham crackers ground up and put into a sawdust pie. Tastes as good as the gluten-full version.

    I early on (back in the days before gluten-free was so popular, so gluten-free items were usually horrid), learned a bunch of recipes that never wanted flour anyway. So, rice pudding, chocolate soufflé, flourless chocolate cake, creme brulee, and lots of pies and such just made in a ramkin...

    :lau Not to worry, this is a Alaskan wedding, so the clothes will be stain-free, hole free, and maybe ironed... as in I am thinking of buying new button down church shirts for all the boys (actually, I was thinking to buy those no-iron ones). We are used to wearing second hand, and garage...

    Though that would save money... I want only minimal cooking to do... Enough to think about with the wedding, I want to minimize what needs to be done last minute.
