Well... I've had my first batch of spelt bread, and I have to say that it's not bad. It's not the white bread you can make from spelt, though. It's darker because of molasses, but I ate it. Granted, it had leftover turkeyloaf (meatloaf made with ground turkey), mayo and a honey garlic barbecue sauce on it, but it was very edible, especially toasted.
The 'rents have also been getting me a lot of stuff to try, including quinoa (keen-wa), spelt flakes, spelt pretzels (made by Newman's Own), rice pasta, spelt pasta, steel cut (pinhead) oats, rice crackers... I'm grateful for their support in this.
Fortunately I can still eat potatoes and rice. Went up to the little corner market this morning and bought five little bags of Herr's Steak and Worcestershire potato chips for a quarter each. They're not bad. I'm set on munchies for a while, when you consider that I have oriental rice crackers, fried peas, soy nuts, banana chips, spelt pretzels, and now these chips... oh, and two pints of Haagen Dazs in the freezer too. (The creme brulee variety is out of this world!)
I did find some spelt bread recipes online, including ones that can be done in a bread machine.

So, in a nutshell, when it comes to eating (at home, at least), there's always stuff I can use. Eating out, however, may pose problems.

It's only for a couple of months, but if it becomes a permanent thing, I think I can handle it.

1. Comment to this entry with a post you think would be totally out of character for me — something I'd never talk about, never discuss, never say, anything. It has to be completely out of character. (Think bizarro-world)

2. Post this in your own journal.
