I am back from Italy and it was everything I could have dreamed of and more. Not only the history, architecture, and people, but just the feeling in the air! And, the food. The gluten-free food in Italy was OUT OF THIS WORLD! I traveled to Italy with my aunt, my cousin, and my sister….
Gluten-Free at Original Pancake House
Is there anything better than that first cup of coffee in the morning? I think not! We have a restaurant up the street from our house that we used to go to all the time. The owners knew us by name and they gave my kids hugs every time we walked in the door. They…
Gluten-Free Ramen Noodle Chicken Salad
I have been craving this ramen noodle salad that we had at parties a lot growing up. Maybe it’s the nice weather and wanting something light with lots of veggies. I added some grilled chicken breast to this very simple recipe to make it a complete meal. Obviously, those cheap ramen noodle soup packets that…
Gluten-Free Las Vegas
I’m finally getting around to sharing ALL about our gluten-free/celiac-friendly food finds during our Las Vegas weekend getaway last month! We found some really great places to eat and even some that didn’t pass the Nima test, but everything ended up working out in the end…like it always does. So where did we eat in…
Tavern on France
I have yet another celiac-friendly restaurant for you that I was seriously surprised to find out was safe – Tavern on France in Edina! I had been to this restaurant pre-diagnosis and had maybe heard that they had some gluten-free options. This visit was a total last minute decision to have an early dinner with the…

Why I Love My Nima Sensor
If you follow me on Instagram, you’ve seen that I’ve been posting some food photos with an odd-looking little black device. This gadget is called a Nima Sensor and she’s my new best friend! As I’ve mentioned before, it’s a bit of a struggle to eat out with Celiac Disease (unless, of course, you’re at…
My Celiac Disease Diagnosis: One Year Later
One year ago today I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease. Wow, how my life has changed in the last year! I wanted to come on here and share my thoughts about what the last 365 days has meant to me, both the good and the bad! My support I couldn’t do this without my husband…
My First Whole30
I finished the Whole30!! Wow, I kind of can’t believe I did it! I didn’t do a full post about my 4th and final week (more like final 10 days) because it was SO boring and I really kind of struggled through. My meals felt really thrown together and uninspired. Here are links to my…
Gluten-Free DisneyWorld 2018 – Magic Kingdom
We spent almost 3 days at Magic Kingdom. Seriously, when we walked in and saw Cinderella’s castle, we were in awe. I think each day we were there we got the strawberry smoothie from Auntie Gravity’s Galactic Goodies. Cinderella’s Royal Table for lunch was one of the activities we talked about most leading up to…
