Around this time last year we noticed several grape pie and grape sellers along the main street of on of our local towns. I did a google search to find this town hosts a very large fall grape festival and pie contest. If you have never heard of grape pies it's ok, neither did…
Gluten Free Cereal Treats
Did you know that store bought rice cereal treats have malt or barley in the them? Which is a problem for me. Rice cereals should be gluten free but many unfortunately are not. So I decided to make healthier gluten free cereal treats at home. A local grocery store recently made new gluten free cereals so…
Bread of the Month: Whole Wheat Zucchini
Yes I am aware it's the beginning of May. But it was not until this week that life slowed down enough for me to want to pick up my hobbies again. So I know I am once again due to give you a life update and that this post is way overdue but here it…
Bread of the Month: Italian Triple Chocolate
You read that right triple chocolate!!! I figured this is the month of and for chocolate lovers right? (see February is synonymous with chocolate). This moist bread is a cross-breed between a dark/molasses bread and a dessert bread. Most dessert bread ingredients form a sweet cake batter rather than a dough and use baking powder and/or soda to…
Bread of the Month: English Muffins
This year I decided I am picking one new bread item per month to home-bake. If you have followed my blog for any length of time you will know that I love to bake but my baking had been mostly limited to desserts. It's only within this past year I began to feel comfortable making…
2013 in review

Good to know: 2013’s Gluten and Tree-nut free Candy Lists
Some of you have probably already bought (and eaten) bags of Halloween candy to give away or use for your harvest season festivities. But with Halloween approaching it is good to be aware of what candies are allergy-free and which could be harmful or deadly. Growing up, this time of the year I knew what…
Gluten-Free Low Cal. Meatloaf
Some nights it is just easiest to throw everything into the oven at once and with one dish have all of dinner ready. Luke's meatloaf is one of those dishes but between chunks of cheese and torn pieces of whole wheat bread it was getting to be higher in calories per serving than we were…
Autumn Apple recipes
On Tuesday I said I'd share what we'd do with all the apple fest apples. Here's everything apple made with those crispy northern spy's: 1. Apple Chips First thing when we got back last Saturday I got out my new hand-dandy apple slicer and peeler and cut up 3-4 apples. Seperating them into rings I stuck…
