Today is a bit dreary here in New England, but the days leading up to this one have been perfectly gorgeous. The leaves are rapidly turning, colorful mums are coming up in my front flower bed {and everyone else’s}, and our farm had acorn squash, spaghetti squash, and pumpkins to take home yesterday! {The pic… Read More Gluten Free Friday ~ Butternut Squash Soup with Cider Cream
My friend, Mari…{Well, she’s really only my Facebook friend, and the cousin of my dear friend and middle school Spanish teacher, Kelly/Miss Riggs…but those things and the fact that she’s from Texas, and makes gluten free treats, make me love her and know that she is a kindred spirit. ☺} Anyway, Mari is a fitness… Read More Gluten Free Friday ~ MariGold Bars!
Two recipe posts in a row means I haven’t blogged in a week, but there are reasons for that. Would you believe me if I told you that a Sunday afternoon trip to the emergency room with a collapsed congregant {she is fine now}, a bit of a health scare and unexpected trip to my… Read More Gluten Free Friday ~ Swiss Chard “Sushi” & Triathlon Countdown
Decadent gluten free waffles and pancakes, a worship service with old friends in Burbank, and an afternoon of beach volleyball ~ that’s what the Sunday after my brother’s wedding held.

Now,… Read More Gluten Free Friday ~ Refreshing Juices and Cool Ice Pops

We arrived in Orlando and Disney World on Wednesday evening, which is a stop “on our way” back home to Massachusetts after a wonderful three-month sabbatical there. And we’ve had so much fun here in this sunny, magical place, but I think we may need another three-month sabbatical to recover from the grueling task it… Read More Gluten Free Friday ~ Magical Edition
Wow! Turns out that many of you are like me, in that you are in need of new meal ideas for yourself or your family. Last week I posted a meal plan for breakfast that was created by Dawn Jackson Blatner, RD. I thought I would post the snacks she suggests this week, but I… Read More Gluten Free Friday ~ A 7 Day Lunch Plan
Do you ever get in food ruts? Seems like it’s so easy to just keep eating the same things for the same meals every day. Eight years ago, when our family began to discover and be diagnosed with a gluten intolerance (everyone except for hubby), I was forced, in a way I am now very… Read More Gluten Free Friday ~ A 7-Day Breakfast Plan
Before driving to Hondo, TX and after a morning run with Robert, Kayla and I made a quick batch of Christmas sugar cookies.
