Gluten-Free Baseball

May 29, 2012

I’ve been to hundreds of baseball games in my life.  Maybe even more than that. Thousands.  Sometimes it feels like millions.  I absolutely love baseball.  I always have.  Lucky for me, I married a man who was born to play and coach the game.  One thing I’ve learned over the years is that it always [...]

I took an unplanned blogging break this weekend and soaked up time with family and friends. As we talk and joke and laugh and enjoy breaking bread together, it’s easy to forget the meaning of this holiday. So I want to pause and say thanks. Thank you to the men and women who serve so [...]

This month, I’ve been doing a lot of education about the perils of eating away from home for those with celiac disease.

Easiest BBQ Chicken Ever from InspiredRD.com

Camping, tubing, and gluten-free eating on the road

May 22, 2012

On Saturday afternoon, we picked Jeff up at the baseball field and headed north to Lake Pleasant.  Some friends were camping with their boat, so we tagged along.  It was our first time camping as a family, and the first time we had a chance to use our new tent.  We had a blast on [...]

When I found out that this month’s Recipe ReDux theme was titled “Sea What You’ve Been Missing” I knew I was in trouble.  We were instructed to use little fishes like anchovies, sardines or smelt, OR we could focus on sea vegetables like kelp or seaweed.  Now, you would think that I would I would [...]
