Returning food to the sacred
Last Saturday, Jon and I took a long drive around the north east end of the island. There is a gorgeous retreat center just past Hana, and I was on a scouting mission for a possible retreat I’ll be hosting next Fall. It was the perfect excuse to grab our cameras and just take a […]
I have reviewed Flatbread Company before, when Jon and I were here last year. That was my first time there, and I loved it immensely, because as you might know, being gluten intolerant usually means a curtailing of your pizza habit. I have always found this to be a gigantic tragedy. Now that we are […]
I have no idea where this recipe originated. I overhead someone talking about it and quickly wrote it down and tweaked it a little. The cookies are flourless, delicious and leave room for quite a bit of alterations as when I first heard the recipe shared, it was with peanut butter. I found chocolate peanut […]
We continue to make pizzas in this house as if they were going out of style. Having the Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Pizza Mix makes it easy and when hit with low grocery inventory in the refrigerator, it also seems to be an easy fix. Yes… I did just use the words ‘grocery inventory’. […]

Eggs and rice is one of my favorite things, and a comfort food with memories buried deep into my childhood. It was one of my fathers favorites, and the only breakfast he would make. So eggs and rice for breakfast it was, and because I had a little something special stored in the refrigerator for […]
For me, Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Pizza Crust Mix is the best thing since sliced bread! Pizza was one of the things I desperately hated denying myself when I first found out I was gluten intolerant. Can you imagine a life without pizza?! Clearly, this was long before I knew of all the gluten […]
Its Super Bowl weekend. For people with gluten intolerance or Celiac Disease it can be a nightmare as party invitations start rolling in. The truth is I’m not a sports follower at all, and I just don’t get the hype really. But I do get the fun in getting together with friends. Around these parts […]
I’ve talked about comfort food before. Its always tied into cozy, rich, sometimes heavy foods. Often, its an unhealthy dish that can be used to stuff emotions or fill in a boredom gap. I don’t think it needs to be that way, and I love the idea of tapping into the warming side of what […]
