I thought I’d write a special post to showcase my favorite salad dressing. I first posted it in November 2012 along with a salad recipe, but I love it so much, I though it deserved its own post.  I have altered the recipe slightly since then, so this is how I […]

The good news is that I can eat potatoes! After taking a break, I decided to give them a try again. I’ve actually been eating a lot of potatoes lately and I feel fine. It was something else that I was reacting to instead of the potatoes. That sometimes happens, […]

While I try to make this blog mostly about recipes for people with food sensitivities, sometimes I just have to write about something that doesn’t fit into any special diet. I think caramel corn is a good example. I have always loved caramel corn. I get it from my dad. […]

I recently met with a doctor in gastroenterology to see if there was anything else I could be doing to improve my IBS. She suggested a probiotic. It may or may not work, but it wouldn’t hurt to try. So I picked some up and gave it a try. The […]

It’s been raining for days and it’s going to keep raining the rest of the week. At least it’s not snow, is all I can say. These kinds of days call for cuddling up with my pugs, a good book and a hot cup of tea. The book I’m reading […]

I promise this isn’t a graphic post, but I did cut my finger trying to slice sweet potatoes. Dang, those things are hard! But then they cook up so soft, you wouldn’t believe that I fear cutting off my digits every time I chop them. My fear was not unfounded […]

Dear Readers, I have to admit that I haven’t had the easiest of winters. The obscene amount of cold temperatures and snow I had to endure were only part of it. In January I was laid off from my new engineering job. After only four months. The company just ran […]

So it’s spring now. As usual, Minnesota did not get the memo. At least it isn’t below zero anymore. Today was in the 30’s and it felt tolerable. It’s pretty sad when it’s the first couple days of spring and we are happy it’s above zero. Well, we can pretend […]

I know I have a tendency to go on and on about how much I love pancakes. I’m a pancake girl! But I decided to try something I haven’t had in ages: waffles. This gluten-free waffle recipe from Food.com was just the thing to try. Wow, I have been missing out! […]
