Contacting companies

I noticed on the Abe’s site that it’s free shipping if your order is over $49. I bought one groupon and got one as a gift, so I’m planning seeing if Mr.2 likes the cake & pancake mix to order more.
It’s usually free shipping if your order is over $49 — however they are running automatic free shipping on everything through 12/31
Hi Rachel and mashup mom readers
I have a daughter that is GF and am just wondering if anyone has actually tried the GF pastry flour that the woman who wrote the french bread recipe sells. Also how do you manage to find such great GF sites?
Penny, I haven’t tried that particular one, but its just White Rice Flour, Potato Starch, Sweet Rice Flour, Tapioca Starch, and Xanthan Gum.
I’m pretty adventurous and would just experiment on my own to get the mix right, but its perfectly fine to want to have some commercial mixes in the house!
The baking recipe I’m finding myself most often using is this one http://glutenfree.wordpress.com/my-gf-flour-blend/.
I was able to print 4 (didn’t try for more) of the Woodstock facebook coupons. I’m very excited about that one!!
