So Hubby and I went out to lunch last week - it was a cold and snowy day so soup sounded perfect! And what better place to get soup than Olive Garden??
During this visit our waiter "Disney" told us that they have a Gluten Free Menu! I had NO idea they did so I thought - why not share it with the world! Obviously OUR choices were not Gluten Free haha BUT I have many friends that need this type of Diet so I wanted to share it with everyone!

This was a table full of specimens and herbs and other crazy stuff
