Summer Asparagus Penne with Artichoke & Cashew Pesto
I have a habit lately. I get a great picture of food and post it to Instagram and say “blog post to follow!” A blog post never follows. Like, ever. Not today though. This one is too good not to share so I’m posting it while my belly is full, my mind is fresh, and my glass of rose is still cold. The recipe...

Gluten Free Soft Baked Pretzels
It’s Pride in Seattle and it turns out I live at the epicenter. In addition to the inspiring atmosphere of celebrating love (and people watching of epic proportions), there’s a street fair with all of the expected food typically reserved for closing time and cash only establishments. By the time I got home all I could think about was food on sticks and… Pretzels. I...

Coffee House Chocolate Chip Muffins
It’s 34 and raining outside. If I have to deal with this weather, I’m going to eat my way to happy. This morning, happy came in the form of muffins. Coffee house style chocolate chip muffins, to be specific. You know the kind… that sit temptingly behind that glass with a crisp, rustic outside, that coarse raw sugar glistening under the soft lighting, a...

Identity Crisis Risotto
I don’t even totally know how to get back in to this blogging thing after my hiatus. I spend more time on here trying to welcome myself back than I do actually writing, and my resolution was to spend more time here. Now that I’m home and we have about 72 feet of snow, I can assure you that’s about to happen. I have...

DIY Cinnamon Stick Music Scroll Ornament
Did you know it’s Christmas in 10 days? Me neither. This year has flown by, but with all of the chaos events of the last year, I’ve never been more excited to embrace the holidays. Part of embracing the season? I’m participating in my first ever Blogger Ornament Exchange organized by one of my favorite local bloggers, Christina of Hungry Meets Healthy. I was...

Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies
Obviously these are gluten free – they’d really ruin my Thanksgiving if they weren’t – but it doesn’t seem fair to label them in a way that could imply that they’re anything short of awesome, perfectly chewy, with a just-crunchy-enough edge cookie – a universally loved treat. Now, I had never made this recipe, and in addition to it being a first round go,...

DIY Burt’s Bees Copycat Lip Balm
It’s November and, from what I’ve been told, snowing in Boston. I was ready for summer to be over but I’m definitely not ready to say goodbye to fall. I was lucky to wrap up October with the treat of having ShareABitOfLove out in Boston last week, but she left for home with us both having a laundry list of incomplete crafts that just simply couldn’t...

Chilled Avocado & Cucumber Soup
It’s here. Finally. The warm weather that makes me choose salad over mac & cheese and a run over hibernating with a book, blanket and glass of wine. Ok, fine. Claiming the wine is seasonal is a total lie, I just switch from pinot noir to pinot grigio. After a glorious weekend with some of my favorite, favorite people in New Orleans I came back craving...

Mushroom, Goat Cheese & Arugula Pizza with Cheesy {Gluten Free} Crust
About 9 months ago, I thought I had come close to perfecting the art of gluten free pizza. It was definitely a strong start, and the recipe, with minimal modification, has been my go-to since originally constructing it. I knew even at the time it might need some modification, and it’s still one to keep in the repertoire, but I’m here to tell you...

The Natural Ginger’s Gluten Free Flour Blend
As you venture into the world of gluten free baking, it doesn’t take long to realize that behind every delicious creation is a reliable gluten free flour blend (and boy are there suddenly a lot to choose from). I have tried (what feels like) them all. Bob’s Redmill, Pamela’s, King Arthur, Trader Joe’s… others I can’t even recall because I’ve been exploring so long. The best I’ve found (to my personal...
