Food Allergy Counseling: Gluten & Allergen Free Expo, Secaucus, NJ
For the first time, the Gluten & Allergen Free Expo came to the east coast.
I was thrilled to be there selling and signing books on Saturday September 7.
From the crowds, starting at the early bird 9am start, I’d say it was a roaring success! I met many fans of Allergic Girl: Adventures in Living Well with Food Allergies – thank you so much!
I saw many of my colleagues there, Anthony from Bistango Restaurant, Marlisa Brown, RD, author of Gluten-Free Hassle Free, Chef Franklin Becker, Erin Smith of Gluten-Free Fun, Tamar Freuman, RD who wrote that wonderful article in US News & World Report. A few several former counseling clients of mine were there, too.
And then there were the vendors, many of the community’s favorites were there and some I had only heard about. Here are a few shots from the day.
There were many more vendors to meet but as I was manning my area at the author's table, I couldn't' get to everyone.
Fantastic job, Gluten & Allergen Free Expo, and I look forward to be part of your growth in the coming years!

Hope you enjoyed some rest after the expo..I'm sure it was fun, yet tiring!
