I originally posted this last summer, but I thought I would do an update with better pictures. Last week, I took the boys to see “How To Tame Your Dragon” (a really GREAT movie by the way)! I loved the underlying message of the movie and thought it very appropriate for Sam, who has been […]
Gluten-Free Pizza Lunchables
So you knew “it” had to be coming at some point, right? 😀 I must say this first, Mike and I are REALLY working with Sam to embrace his “differences” (as we all have them), and I think it is starting to catch on. He is not asking for GF Lunchables all that much […]
Udi’s Gluten Free Bagels & A Fun Breakfast Treat for GF Kids

Gluten-Free Monster Truck Birthday Cake
I will go into this later but I had so much fun today at my “Stage Cakes” cake decorating class that I wanted to show all my GF and Food Allergy mom friends our potential in making fun and safe birthday cakes for our precious children. There are definitely some flaws if you are looking […]
