They're here!

Yes, it is true.  All those celiac patients out there can now have rice krispie treats!  General Mills has developed a brown rice based Rice Krispie that is gluten-free.  This is one cereal we thought at the beginning that Scott would be able to have in its regular form, but not so, it had malt in it.  In fact most breakfast cereals have malt in them.

I haven’t found these at our stores yet but we will be trying them. Brown rice is better for you for sure, but I’m not convinced it will pass my taste test in the marshmallow squares.  We’ll see.

Here is the website for Gluten Free Rice Krispies - with recipes of course!

I give my award for Best April Fool’s idea this year to something from the April Issue of Family Fun – doughnut seeds! I just wish I had gotten my copy early enough to send these to friends and family. (I have it on my to-do for next year.)

I love doughnuts so this is just perfect. You can see the full project instructions plus download and/or print the package here. You supply the frosted Cheerios.  The back of the package with planting instructions is hilarious.

Happy April Fool’s Day!!!
