Glutino Gluten-Free Sesame Bagel Review
I am celebrating today with a wonderful Glutino Sans Gluten Sesame Bagel, or what they ended up calling Glutino Gluten Free Premium Sesame Bagels (in some year after I originally wrote this review). I toasted this bagel up, as pictured above, with some Roasted-Almond Butter as a topping. I definitely recommend these bagels. I prefer them toasted (like many GF products), but the textures and such is really pretty decent when toasted. It's not a Panera Bread fresh bagel by any means, but it really isn't that much different than a normal frozen bagel. These glutenfree bagels hold up rather well in the fridge too — in fact, I have had this one in there for at least 4 or 5 weeks, and it was fine toasted.What am I celebrating with this lovely toasted GF bagel today?
GOOD NEWS: My printed gluten-free recipe cookbooks have arrived at the nearby Cleveland warehouse — they are delivering the books to me on Monday. Funny thing is they are literally a block away from a friend's house that I am going to visit today. I could walk from my friend's house to pick them up, but I have no vehicle capable of handling 3 tons of books. I tried to get the shipping company to allow me to pick up a few boxes today, but as expected, they won't let me take a partial load.So, the time frame for getting the cookbooks and being able to send them out to customers is now a definite one. From here on I am to deal with local shipping contacts (no more LA contacts), and, I expect that will make life a bit easier! Snow if forecast for Monday, which will make moving the books more fun — and, of course, the entire week last week that the books were supposed to be here the weather was wonderful (sunny and 60's)!
Next, I have been contemplating a book-launch party for sometime in the next couple weeks. We have quite a few friends, family, neighbors, and acquaintances that were involved in our recipe trials and such, that is just seems appropriate to have some kind of celebration and get-together. I have a feeling this is going to be a challenge when competing against all the company Christmas parties and the like. Worst case is I can push it off until January I guess.

Hold on, Mike! You're almost there. And you'll be so excited when you are finally holding the books in your hands. Have a party, indeed!
ReplyDeleteShauna, you are so right. I am almost there. I guess it all works out in an odd way, since my wife is snowed in out at Chicago, and she wouldn't have been back here in Cleveland today for the much anticipated cookbooks arrival. Now she can participate come Monday.
ReplyDeleteI think you are right -- definitely should have a party. I just need to find a date/time soon where everyone isn't tied up with holiday events. Maybe the promise of some fresh baked gluten free desserts will be enough to lure the masses in. :)
Yay! I'm so happy for you! You must be so excited. A party is definitly in order.
ReplyDeleteHey, your wife is out by me. This weather here is horrible. We went from 60 degrees down to the teens this weekend. I was downtown on Tuesday in a long sleeve t-shirt. Last night it was snow gear. Brace yourself for it!!!
Shannon - we've already dropped below the freezing point here now too; just like Chicago, we too were in the 60's for over a week prior to this cold snap.
ReplyDeleteAt least it sounds like Chicago air-travel is going to be a bit smoother by tomorrow, which should get my wife back to Cleveland without horrible delays like existed yesterday and before.
Enjoy the cold, and just tell yourself how nice the temperatures are compared to January. :)
I love the book party. You should plan it for anytime, people are used to partying this time of year, then again January might be the right time after all the hoopla has died down. Good idea! Celebrate!
