This post is linked to Gluten-Free Wednesdays Cake Challenge. Back in the spring I took several cake decorating classes in order to pick up a few tips for making the boy’s birthday cakes. One class I took was called “Stage Cakes.” Basically, you build a stage out of cake and then build a scene. I […]
Gluten Free Churros
posted on May 19, 2010 by
Back in early March, Alta from Tasty Eats at Home posted a Gluten-Free Churro recipe for her Kids in the Kitchen series. When I saw them, I knew I had to make some for Sam. Churros were his favorite treat before he went gluten-free. In case you do not know what a Churro is, they […]
Gluten Sensitivity and Vitamin D
posted on May 10, 2010 by
I want to share these videos with you because there is some new research that Dr. Petersen discusses that might help someone struggling with Vitamin D Deficiency. I decided to take a closer look at the vitamin supplements that we use: This is the Liquid Multivitamin that I take by Country Life. From the website: […]
JASON Kids Only! Gluten Free Toothpaste
posted on May 8, 2010 by
A recent funny post that Kim made over at Gluten-Free Is Life, titled “True Blogger Confessions,” got me to thinking about GF dental products, so I wanted to share the brand of toothpaste that I buy for my boys. JASON Kids Only! is an all-natural line of products that are specifically designed for children. The […]
Funny Oranges
posted on May 4, 2010 by
After I got the Breville Citrus Press and started making fresh squeezed orange juice each morning, I found myself knee deep in orange peels. Instead of throwing them all away, I wondered if I could use some of them for a fun lunchbox treat. I remembered seeing a recipe for Gelatin Oranges on Disney’s Family […]

posted on May 1, 2010 by
Yesterday, my shipment of Glutino Chocolate and Yogurt Covered Pretzels arrived! There has been quite a bit of buzz around this new product since the announcement was made in March on Food Biz Daily, so the second I heard they were available for sale on GlutenFree.com, I had to order some. Sam used to love […]
Tribe All-Natural Hummus
posted on April 25, 2010 by
On a recent trip to Costco, I found a package of Tribe Hummus Snacker Packs and I thought they would be great for tossing into the boy’s Easy Lunchboxes (a great “prepackaged” 100-calorie pack! Just toss in some carrots or other raw veggies and there you have it! 😉 ). A box of 16 individual […]

Canyon Bakehouse Gluten-Free Bread Review (and Sandwich Puzzles!)
posted on April 19, 2010 by
Recently, I was the lucky recipient of some complimentary gluten-free bread products from Canyon Bakehouse, a dedicated gluten-free facility in Loveland, Colorado. All I can say is… YUM! Funny story; the day the Canyon Bakehouse products arrived, I placed them on the counter and waited patiently until Mike and the boys got home from work/school […]
Lunchbox Kabobs
posted on April 14, 2010 by
Back when I was working on my review for the Easy Lunchbox System (while simultaneously trying to recreate an “authentic looking” GF Lunchable), I really started to ponder how most kids perceive foods just by how they look and how they are packaged, you saw my “McCarrot Experiment,” right?. I have also been trying to […]
