I have a great little breakfast sandwich that my kids love, it’s a GF spin on the McDonald’s McGriddles Breakfast Sandwiches. Use your favorite GF Pancake Mix (we always use Pamela’s Pancake and Baking mix at our house) to make your pancakes. Tip: I like to quadruple the batch each time I make pancakes, then, […]
Ian’s Wafflewich
posted on July 31, 2009 by
While I was at my local Whole Foods the other day, I noticed a new GF food to try, Ian’s Maple Sausage and Egg Wafflewich. I go into trying a new (to me) GF product skeptical but with an open mind. I will try anything to see if I can “discover” some new gluten-free godsend, […]
Chicka Chicka Boom Boom Cake
posted on July 30, 2009 by
Here is a photo of another birthday cake I did for my friend’s daughter. The palm tree and brightly colored cupcakes were what we came up with for a Chicka Chicka Boom Boom themed party. Caden (birthday girl) has a little friend who is allergic to wheat and eggs, so Kristen asked if I would […]
Gluten-Free in Columbus, Ohio
posted on July 29, 2009 by
A quick shout out to my hometown although I am actually from Westerville, Ohio; a suburb of Columbus. I found this website from a post on the Silly Yak Yahoo Group. So, to all my friends back home who have asked me about the gluten-free diet, and to all the Buckeye Fans in town for […]

If you do not have them already, you simply MUST get a copy of Triumph Dining’s Gluten-Free Restaurant Guide and Gluten-Free Dining Cards. I have recently received my 3rd edition of the restaurant guide and bought a second set of the dining cards. I could not live without them. The restaurant guide is updated annually, […]

I love this… I have all these envelope sealers around the house and in Sam’s school supplies for when they do “mail week” at school and guess what? Envelopes are Gluten-Free!
Very Hungry Caterpillar Cake
posted on July 26, 2009 by
Back in the spring I decided to take a cake decorating class at a local cake supply store. I will admit that the idea of going into a room filled with gluten laden cakes freaked me out; but I was a mom on a mission. Armed with vinyl gloves and sitting at my own table […]
Gluten Free Twix
posted on July 25, 2009 by
So, I decided to try and make some Twix candy bars. Twix were my husband’s favorite indulgence before he decided to jump on the GF bandwagon when our son was diagnosed with Celiac Disease. Mike’s support has meant the world to me so I thought I would try to bring back a little nostalgia for […]
Rice Chex Crispy Treats
posted on July 23, 2009 by
Over the years, since going gluten-free, I have been trying to make a Rice “Krispie” treat with the GF crisp rice cereals. Something was always missing and I assumed it was the taste of the malt flavoring in the name brand Rice Krispies cereal. A friend of mine told me she uses Rice Chex, since […]
Kinnikinnick S’moreables Gluten-Free Graham Crackers
posted on June 26, 2009 by
It is that time of year again. Campfires, roasting hot dogs and marshmallows, and the quintessential essence of all things summer, S’mores. When beginning my new gluten-free life 5 years ago, I quickly learned that the sooner I could forget about how something “should” taste, the better off I would be. In what seems like […]
