An Educational Gluten-Free Restaurant Experience
I think I have made it clear in the past that I do not eat out often, and I really don’t, maybe a couple of times a month, if that. I assume a personal risk each and every time I dine out, as cross-contamination lurks everywhere, despite the best intentions to lower that risk. I […]
Steamed Artichokes with a Lemon Butter Dipping Sauce

Homemade “Safe Cleanser” Recipe from the Dr. Oz Show
I while back I had the Dr. Oz Show on in the background and my ears piped up when I heard “homemade non-toxic cleanser.” I just had to try it. I have been slowly trying to remove most chemicals from our house but have been resistant to homemade cleaners using vinegar, because I don’t want […]
