I think for celiacs this is as huge as the parting of the Red Sea! I have been blogging about Udi’s for a few months now. I think I called their gluten-free bread something like… oh yeah, the “Holy Grail” of the gluten free world. I’m not joking either! The sandwich bread is moist and […]

Navigating A Birthday Party When Your Child is Gluten Free
posted on September 29, 2009 by
Sam went to his first birthday party of the school year this past weekend. Sam is new to this school and when he got the invitation he was really excited to go. I noticed the hours of the party were around lunch time so we called to confirm that lunch was being served and when […]
The Death Star Pinata
posted on September 28, 2009 by
Whew…I think I have made a passable (at least to a group of 5 and 6 year olds) Death Star Pinata for Sam and his buddy Garrett’s upcoming Star Wars birthday party. This is what I used as a guide: Overall, this was pretty easy. Especially using what was originally a soccer ball pinata. It […]

posted on September 27, 2009 by
While at my local Sunflower Market the other day I came across a few products that I have not seen before and thought I would share my findings! I am also trying to keep an eye on dairy free products to experiment with. Sorry about the quality of some of the photos, I took them […]

Macaroni Green Beans Supreme

A follow up from my post yesterday on Mac and Cheese. My mom made a couple of great casseroles that I loved as a kid, a Monte Cristo something or other (need to find the recipe now that I have exceptional substitutions) and the following, Macaroni Green Beans Supreme. I am not sure the source […]

Ufta! Sorry I haven’t made a post in a couple of days, yesterday was nuts because I had our carpets cleaned and in the excitement of that, I decided to rearrange my pantry… which led to me painting the pantry… which led to me painting the boys bathroom! Ahhh, I love ADHD at times, I […]
Slowcooker Ribs ‘N Kraut and Homemade Applesauce
posted on September 20, 2009 by
Okay…the recipe title is probably (okay, it is!) less than appealing, but this really is delicious! Take a chance and trust me :-p As I mentioned in the post with my cream puff recipe, I am of German descent. That being said, I developed a taste for sauerkraut at a very young age. I know […]
Individual Pumpkin Cheesecakes
posted on September 20, 2009 by
I am not sure the source of this recipe but I am pretty sure I clipped it out of the coupon section of the Sunday paper sometime last year. What I got excited about was the fact it was almost naturally gluten free, just needed a minor substitution for the gingersnap cookies, which was a […]
