What can we say about Bruschetta? Bruschetta is so popular that it is served in almost every restaurant. Thousands of variations exist but I prefer the more traditional ingredients and preparations of Bruschetta--simple but classic, with juicy tomatoes, spicy garlic, sweet basil, and rich extra-virgin olive oil. 



ONLY FRIDAY 56 PARTICIPANTS MAY USE THE LINKY.

"The results of your tests are in. You have what is known as celiac disease," the specialist said on that fateful September 12, 2013. At first I didn't respond. I needed a minute to actually let those words sink in and process what I just heard. I was somewhat familiar with gluten since a few friends of mine do suffer with gluten intolerance, but I was not knowledgeable enough to really understand the implications. I told him that this could not be. I ate pasta and bread all year round but I was not sick all year round. It must be a mistake.

    Mmm, now I'm hungry. I love bread so if I ever am diagnosed with Celiac's, I am going to have a hard time.

    Your Friday 56 selection made me hungry, and the book's opening made me curious. I don't know much about celiac disease, but I've been hearing a lot about it lately.
    Thank you for hosting The Friday 56.

    Bruschetta is one of my all-time favourite Italian things, coming a close second to pizza. I would love to be able to make it properly myself. A friend of mine found out she was gluten-intolerant and was heart-broken for quite a while so I may have to tell her about this cook book! Thanks for sharing :) I hope you have a great weekend!

    This sounds wonderful. I have a few friends who have had to go gluten free. And there are times I wonder if it isn't part of my health problems. Thanks for sharing this one!

    This sounds like an interesting book. I have no need to eat gluten free but I have a cousin with celiac disease who would enjoy this one.

REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
