Homemade Gluten Free Samoas

February 16, 2012 by Cara

Homemade Gluten Free Samoas for the Win! As you know, I am a sucker for my siblings’ children. I love all my little babies {even the little sprout rapidly growing in my sister’s belly who will be named after ME, by the way–how special is that?!!

DIY Sugar Cubes

January 26, 2012 by Cara

In loving memory of my mother, who passed away on 3/15/16, one month after a ruptured brain aneurysm on Valentine’s Day, 5 years after this DIY Sugar Cubes post was written. My favorite part about this is reading my mom’s comment (aka: “Your Biggest Fan”). I miss her everyday and dedicate this recipe to her (even though it kind of…

Gluten free Vegan Oreos

January 11, 2012 by Cara

Gluten Free Graham Crackers

January 5, 2012 by Cara

Continuing on our “Snacks-I-ate-as-a-kid” theme, I was a huge graham cracker lover. Particularly the graham sticks kind. My favorite thing to do was grab a few crackers (oh, who am I kidding? I would grab an entire sleeve) and dip each piece into an ice cold bath of milk. So imagine my excitement when I saw that there existed gluten free graham…

No Bake Peanut Butter Bars

December 8, 2011 by Cara

There are few combos that are forever instilled as classics in our minds. Think about them, you know what they are. Combos like peanut butter and jelly, peas and carrots, cookies and milk, and peanut and chocolate. There is something so soothing and satisfying about these food combos, as if they were simply created to be together….

Gluten Free Happy Birthday Cake

November 15, 2011 by Cara

There is no shame when it comes to birthdays. They are meant to be celebrated. Even if it is your own birthday you are subjecting others to indulge in. It is a requirement. It’s in the Birthday Law Book. And so is making a gluten free Happy Birthday Cake, even if it is for you.    It’s especially difficult as you…

November 14, 2011 by Cara

Time to change things up here a bit, put the turkeys aside and add new types of: that you can serve this Thanksgiving, whip up for your kids, or just for yourself. See? A little bit for everyone. I’m a giver. These are so simple to make, it will make you wanna slap your momma. (Not sure what that expression is supposed to mean, really). I…
