Ceramic Bundt Pan
I wanted to take a quick photo of my ceramic bundt pan to show to you. A couple friends have asked me what I use, since I make bundt cakes a lot, and there are bundt cake recipes in my cookbooks. When I began baking I was unable to find a bundt pan in stores…
Durable, Pretty, Healthy, Eco Friendly Glass Straws
We are crazy for smoothies and shakes—We drink at least one a day. And so I wish I had ordered these Durable Glass Straws sooner. They are phenomenal! Just a few days after ordering them they arrived in very little packaging—our first hint at how tough they are. Since then, my kids have not been…
camping and eating gluten-free in Steamboat Springs, Colorado
This weekend we went on a 4 day, 3 night camping trip to Steamboat Springs, Colorado. It was so green and beautiful, I wished we could stay longer! For breakfast we had tea, and homemade granola (see end for recipe), with fresh fruit and berries, which we picked up daily at one of three local…

Thanksgiving! Outside the Breadbox Pie
Before I became a health-nut or knew I was celiac, I used to love to eat pastries at breakfast. Turnovers, scones, croissant, danish, doughnuts, you name it, I ate it every day, just about. Since those days have long been replaced with smoothies mostly (and you know I love my smoothies!), I sometimes long for…

Homemade Potpourri vs. Scented Paraffin Candles
One of my favorite things to do in the late fall and winter is make homemade potpourri. And since avoiding toxins is vitally important to me for my family’s health, it’s a great alternative to scented paraffin candles. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), candles made of paraffin wax contain petroleum, a by-product of…
