![]() ![]() But when I think about the fact that out of all the people in this big crazy world I found him and he found me I think someone, somewhere knew what they were doing.Īfter all, not many people would see the sentimental value of gluten-free Buttermilk Biscuits. Sometimes I am not sure I even really believe that. I know it is such a cliche to say that things happen for a reason. It was assurance that I could be a proper Southern woman that sends her husband to the duck blind with sausage and biscuits. It made me feel a normalcy that we had lost for a while. To me, it made me feel like everything was going to be okay. To anyone else, this is just a recipe with flour, milk, eggs, and butter. Things that kept him fed and satisfied but there were also these beautiful rare occasions we didn’t find something that just worked, we found something he loved. These biscuits, these gorgeous, fluffy, soft Bisquick buttermilk biscuits were one of the first major successes. It wasn’t long before we did come up with things that worked. So, the search began to find new favorites since everything he liked before was now out. We were very fortunate that if he had to have a medical issue it was one that could be so easily managed. No crazy medical treatments, no surgeries. In reality, I knew things could have been much worse. These are all of the things that I worried about. How would he have a normal life? We were a couple months away from moving off to college, what would we do? Going out to dinner would be impossible, being a guest in someone else’s home would be so much more of an inconvenience. I thought of all of the things he would never eat again -bread, pasta, cake, pie, beer, pizza. In other words, total and complete opposites. ![]() I am a dramatic, oh my gosh, this is terrible, we need a game plan for this life changing event kind of person. He is a roll with it, laid back, don’t worry ’bout a thing, it will all be okay kind of guy. That was almost 10 years ago, and to this day I still think it is one of the most defining moments of our relationship. I, on the other hand, cried because I had been feeding him Wheat Thins in 4th period Economics for several months prior. This was not going to be easy, but he didn’t utter a complaint, he was totally fine. We lived in a very small rural town where finding gluten-free alternatives were practically impossible. Not only did we have to rule those things out of his diet, but we also had to make sure there was no opportunity for cross contamination. That meant no wheat, oats, barley or rye. He had to totally eliminate gluten from his diet. After learning about the diagnosis, the gravity of the situation set in. Maebell was diagnosed with Celiac we were just a couple kids in high school. ![]() These Gluten-Free Biscuits are made with Bisquick and come together in under 25 minutes!
