A A long while back (SORRY! I am behind on life!), I received a promotional HUGE box of Risotto Chips from New York Style Brand.

Don’t worry. I’m here. I cannot believe it has been so long since I last posted. In my mind, I’ve posted a dozen times since the last. Hmm… that must be what happens when sleep deprivation takes over: you dream that your blog posts are getting updated when really… you are just dreaming it to [...]

Chocolate a la española/Spanish Hot Chocolate Photo by Kate Chan A tidbit off my facebook posting just to help you get the context for my chocolate craving: Dear Santa – Please forgive my little imp’s exclamation of “Oh, shit!” when the gas fireplace burst to life the other day.

November 9, 2010 45 Comments
… My mind is swirling with the tidbits I’ve read…. would *you* take a pill to “cure” yourself of Celiac Sprue or your Gluten Intolerance? I honestly think that I would not. Eating fresh food and being mindful of what I put into my body – and the bodies of my family members – has [...]
