[youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AV0fmNo7474&hl=en_US&fs=1&] How about a piece of the cake, instead? 🙂 Now just remember, I am just a mom and not a professional decorator by any means, LOL! I am only on a mission to build a better birthday cake for my kids! Although, a drunk leprechaun sitting on a grassy knoll with a chocolate pot […]
Gluten-Free Powdered Donuts/Doughnuts
posted on March 11, 2010 by
Whether you spell it Donut or Doughnut, they both represent the same thing. Whether you are a Dunkin’ Donuts type of donut person or a Krispy Kreme Doughnuts type of doughnut person, it doesn’t matter because if you are gluten-free like me, you cannot have either! 😀 Back in December, I had to figure how […]

Gluten-Free Eggplant Parmesan
posted on March 8, 2010 by
I found a great recipe the other day for Eggplant Parmesan so I thought I would share it. Before going gluten-free, I always liked the Eggplant Parmesan at the Olive Garden, thinly sliced and crispy, topped with marinara, shredded mozzarella and fresh grated Parmesan… yummy. I don’t know about you, but I have never had […]

posted on March 7, 2010 by
I think I have finally recovered from my GF Pretzel Rod Adventure from last week. Well, at least enough to post a few funny photos! So why did I even bother, you ask? Well, that is a very good question! For Sam’s Friday Fun Snack last week, we needed a gluten-free version of these: But […]
Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Soy-Free Banana Bread
posted on March 6, 2010 by
This is the recipe my mom always used when I was growing up and I still use it today (not sure of the original source), with my gluten-free tweaks of course. I decided to make some the other night using a few other alternative ingredients just to see how it would turn out, and boy […]
“The No Biggie Bunch” Book Review and Giveaway!!
posted on March 5, 2010 by
Recently, while I was “tweeting” (on Twitter) about Sam going through some social “celiac growing pains,” I got a tweet back from @NoBiggieBunch about a book series for children called “The No Biggie Bunch.” Intrigued, I went to the website and checked it out. I got excited because it appeared as though the book series […]
