All I want for my birthday is a Dutch oven, a panini press, maybe another baking sheet, oh and defiantly a kitchen aid mixer (dream please come true). Honestly if I had to pick one, I would just go with the Dutch oven. They are very versatile for one pot meals (my favorite), and since…
Gluten Free Pound Cake
I asked Josh did he want a gluten free cake for his birthday and he had no clue what I was talking about, so are conversation ended in no I don’t and make sure it’s good. I am still working on a recipe for a cake. I have not decided what I wanted to do…
Birthday Adventures at Bass Pro Shop
Someone had a birthday (not me) so I surprised him with a trip to bass pro shop for are fishing adventure this weekend. I can tell you that when he finally figured out where we were going he was one happy camper. The look you get when you will not tell him where we are…
Gluten Free Zucchini Bread
I am not in love with this weather at all it seems we went from 90 to 105 in two days. I hope it is not going to be as hot this weekend; Josh wants to go to the lake and fish for his birthday. I am not looking to being in the hot sun…

Very Moist Gluten Free strawberry cake bread that is bursting with strawberries. Very addictive!

When using my recipes…
Calming Sugar Scrub

Leftover Puree Quick Bread
I hope you did not throw that pulp away! I am not one throw something away( if I can make good use of it) especially when food is involved. I like to save sugar cookie scrap, dough that never got used, fruit and veggie pulp or puree; which are my favorites. I was taught as…
Blackberry Limeade
I wonder if it’s me or is everyone getting ready for fall a little too quickly; summer doesn’t “technically” end until September 21st but it seems everyone is already in the spirit. Stores have already got the Halloween decorations and candy out, everyone is on pintrest pinning everything apples and pumpkins. I am wondering where they…
How to Make Raisins
Lately have been a little blanch happy, boiling everything and almost anything I can (that’s edible). Blanching more than just blueberries has me feeling like I am in a chemistry lab doing science experiments. I have now moved on to big and better things and have begun blanching grapes. This has been the best thing…
