All good things come back, right? I’ve been thinking about this post since last week. Friday, to be exact. I’ve tried to figure out the best photo, the best wording, etc. But what I’m left with is the same post I had been planning since before Friday. Friday was a wild-ride-of-a-day for me. In the [...]
GF: Maple Butter Cookies
April 3, 2008 5 Comments
I have this amazing friend (more like a sister, really). I’ve written about Alice before and told you how as a wedding gift she made a Gluten-free Thanksgiving + Rehearsal dinner when we got married. Now *that* is taking on A LOT! Cooking for 25 people you don’t know with the additional pressure of it [...]
GF: Dessert, thanks to Burt
March 31, 2008 10 Comments
Sometimes the best things in life are the things we don’t often stop long enough to contemplate. Take for example the rare sunshine (in the PNW) through my skylights in the living room. Both Max (our black lab) and I were lounging in the sunshine on Saturday for as long as it lasted. (I swear [...]
Gluten-Free Staples: What do you have in your cupboards?
March 26, 2008 25 Comments
(Click on the picture to learn more about it (see info) and learn what is NOT pictured but on hand.) I think we can all agree that learning about Gluten-free living is *definitely* a gradual process. While “giving up gluten’ can be instantaneous, it is a huge process to get back in the kitchen with [...]
Us as kids

My siblings and I as kids, originally uploaded by Kate Chan. If you had one extra day each week to relish life, what would you do? As a kid, I don’t think I even had to think about it. I just did it. I lived full on, with both feet jumping in and relishing every [...]

Kefalotiri Cheese & Poached Fig Kebabs and Fig Vinegar. (Sorry for the bad picture…it was delicious, I promise. Just a bit too dark for photography.) Oh yea. Maybe I really *did* need to spend those hours making lesson plans and designing curriculum for three days out of the classroom…. because really – this has been [...]
GF: Homemade Ice Cream Sandwiches
February 25, 2008 12 Comments
Sometimes I wonder what the big life plan is for us as individuals. Don’t we all? Before I was lucky enough to have met my love, I went on a few noteworthy (in the incredibly hilarious sense) dates. I decided in the midst of these dates that there *really* should be a huge map of [...]
A shout out to Shauna

So… I am still home sick. Apparently when I want to get sick, I’m going to do it well and get it ALL!!! Wahoo! (Not really though.) This morning I opened my work email only to discover 68 unread messages (OMG OMG OMG) and as I began to plow through them with as many responses [...]
Gluten Free for the Holidays: A Blogging Event!
November 5, 2007 19 Comments
(A word of warning…make sure the person packing your groceries puts your fresh cranberries ON TOP of your 4 pounds of oranges. Especially if you may be taking pictures of them. ) My first Gluten-free Holiday was Thanksgiving… and my wedding. We were married the Friday after Thanksgiving and had a two day wedding/celebration. For [...]
GF Biscuits or why you should love your GF Flour Mix
November 2, 2007 30 Comments
These biscuits were divine. A bit heavier than non-GF biscuits, but I anticipated that. Maybe 7 years of GF eating have taught me not to expect the identical consistency as my memory believes there should be. I don’t know. I do know that I have found equally flavorful and delicious foods with a bit of [...]
One more reason to be wary
October 31, 2007 2 Comments
I honestly don’t know if I would have paid attention to this had the large red banner across the middle of the spray gotten my attention. Um. Yea. I had no idea that Baker’s Joy had flour in it. Did you? Thankfully, I’ve been using olive oil in a spritz bottle that we got in [...]
Clown feet for your next cupcake

I’ve had this picture for a couple days. I saw this the last time we were at Target and then not an hour later I saw it again at Linens-N-Things. It rather cracked me up, but no worries, I left it on the shelf. My kitchen has little storage space to begin with. I don’t [...]
