As everyone else has mentioned spring has arrived and with it bike rides and planting of I hope to be a garden for myself this summer! Onions, green beans, peppers, herbs, tomatoes, and strawberries, and many items from the farmer's market and the Amanas'.

This past week a lot has been developing with my research. I have gone through another round of blood tests, all relating to Celiac Disease, and have just gotten out a biopsy on my esophagus and my small intestine. Unlike my previous biopsies I ask for plenty of photos and I got them. Not the most beautiful photos but quite extraordinary non the less.

My Lit Reviews have expanded beyond my control with several blog sights, collage resources, and books and articles newly published from Celiac Clinics. It is great to have all of this at my finger tips but getting started on it is the hardest part!

I am off to New York this next week to look at some galleries there and than to Philly to National Ceramics Conference. It is funny and frustrating that my stress about this trip is Eating! I will be sure to journal and paste as I go along!
