Grain Free Baking Powder

Well we have starting exploring a bit, and since Baking Powder has Cornstarch in it we wanted to come up with something else, so we found this blog post:
http://www.thespunkycoconut.com/2010/01/how-to-make-your-own-grain-free-corn.html
And made our own grain free Baking Powder.  Using
1 part Baking Soda
2 parts Cream of Tartar
2 parts Starch (we used Arrowroot flour) 

The more we become conscientious about searching for things the more amazed I am at how many 'commonly used items' contain grain, such as Baking Powder.  But I am also excited and grateful we can find substitutions.
