Hey All, Yes I’ve been on radio silence lately with the completion and opening of the bakery. But more about that later. First I want to share a little story about something that happened the other day that I, for one, have had it with. It was a few days ago (about two days before the opening of my sweet little bakery) while my BFF, Rick, was helping me with last minute details (of which there were many)!  We were both hungry and needed...

There has been some back and forth from some of you about my recent blog – about my disgust with the lack of care for what goes into our gluten free food and major manufactures.  Some wrote that Dunkin Donuts new gluten free products are being made in a clean environment and that I should have researched that.  I did, and stated that in my blog.  Other comments were about your children being able to feel normal and being able to grab a...

Hi Friends,  if you have followed my blog you probably know that I like to keep things moving in a positive direction.  Living with Celiac disease is enough to deal with without adding fuel to the fire by letting nonsense get to me.  Yes sometimes my health situation gets the best of me and I allow myself to wallow a bit,  but not for long.  In the past 3 months I decided to take the leap and open the bakery and a safe zone that I have been...

Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Now onto a new year, again.  Every year we make promises to ourselves to quit something, change something or start something.  I’m suggesting only one thing to adapt this year, BE KIND TO YOURSELF!  Forget all the pressure you put on yourself and incorporate treating yourself well.  That begins, in my opinion, with taking care of your health! Being Celiac, as many of you...

OK, so here is the situation I found myself in last night.  One I’m sure many will appreciate… My lovely, wonderful boyfriend informs me that his friend from up the street is going to drop in.  I say, “When?”  I say this out loud (of course) but what really is going through my head is,  ”DROP IN?  Who DROPS IN?”  …Found out later that ‘dropping in’ is very big where my boyfriend comes...

Please check this out. This is a project set up by my friends called Alphabet 26 – for those angels who lost their lives the other day while learning their ABC’s at Sandy Hook Elementary School. Horrifying. This is a wonderful opportunity for those of us hoping to share our love and support for the families left behind… Watch the video below for a brief explanation of the project.  You will find details and the ability to...

Patience is the word I choose.  Patience is what we MUST have when dealing with this ever changing disease.  Patience is what we need when dealing with OTHERS regarding this disease.  If I said it once, I’ve said it a thousand times, the ignorance regarding this disease is astounding.  Don’t know if many of you saw or heard about the recent display of the blatant lack of respect for the disease by an actual intelligent person,...

Since Thanksgiving has snuck up on me this year, well I have been a bit preoccupied with other nonsense as you all know, I didn’t get to post all the wonderful recipes I had planned for you. I will get to that in a second but first I want to take this opportunity to be thankful for some things that all celiacs can take part in… 1.) Thankful that I can still drink WINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (not too much but its still an option!) 2.)...

Hey all, As many of you know when I disappear from here that usually means that some not so great stuff has gone down. You would be right in your assumption. As many of you know I had some issues with my day job and whether or not this thing called, Celiac, that I’m graced with, was actually real. I’m not going to get into the whole story because it makes me too sad and angry every time I go over it. I’m sure many of you know...
