Prompt: Introductions

[runpunkrun]

Hello, gluten-free friends and family! It is I, Punk, speaking to you with my words. If you haven't already, please read the community guidelines for your safety and mine.

If I can keep my act together, I'll be posting a weekly discussion topic to prompt conversation about gluten-free cooking. This week I thought we could introduce ourselves and do some light mingling.

Let's do name, rank, and preferred pronouns. And maybe answer one or more of the following questions:

• What's the last gluten-free thing you made with your own hands?
• If your answer is "coffee," that's valid.
• What kind of foods do you like to prepare?
• How much baking experience do you have?
• What type of recipes are you interested in?
• Are you here to post, comment, or just be a friendly lurker?
• If you are going to lurk friendily, please say hi just this once. We'll say hi back.

Also, as the comm opened on Pi day (3.14), why not tell us your favorite pie?

Come join me in the comments!

Hi, I'm mergatrude. She or They is fine. I'm also lactose intolerant.

The last gf thing I made was breakfast - chia seeds and quinoa flakes with a pinch of cinnamon, soaked over night in almond milk, and served with coconut yoghurt and fresh fruit.

I've been baking most of my life, but mostly simple things. I don't have a lot of patience for fussy recipes. *g*

I love food, both sweet and savoury, but my favourite type of cooking is simple to prepare things. I enjoy the challenge of adapting recipes to the ingredients on hand.

I primarily lurk, but I will undoubtedly try recipes and am happy to share my own.

Welcome! I'm a big fan of simple recipes as well; this is why I don't do pastries. :D
