Get ready for a long post… I have had some things on my mind lately. Specifically, I have seen some negativity surrounding the Nima Sensor and it makes me sad and, quite frankly, frustrated. I feel this way not because I believe what is being said about it, but because I don’t like seeing that people…

Nima Sensor Tutorial
Hello to all my gluten-free friends!! There have been some requests for a tutorial on how I use my Nima Sensor so here you go! In this video, I show you how I tested the gluten-free pad thai with shrimp while eating out at Noodles & Company. Surprisingly, Noodles & Company has a great allergy-protocol and…
Gluten-Free Restaurants in Minneapolis/St. Paul
This list is current as of March 25, 2019. I LOVE living in Minneapolis. Besides the culture and amazing people we have here, we are fortunate to have a great selection of gluten-free restaurants, breweries, and food trucks. One of the things I also love is that we are so close to St. Paul and…
Gluten-Free Canada: Montreal and Quebec City
I recently finished off a wonderful week in Canada with my husband and some friends. Turns out I love Canada! We surprised Brian’s college best friend, Bob, for his 40th birthday! Bob decided he wanted to go to Montreal with his wife, Rebecca, to celebrate. Rebs thought it would be fun for us to surprise…
Gluten-Free Italy: Rome and Florence
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

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…
Gluten-Free DisneyWorld 2018 – Animal Kingdom
We started our morning at Animal Kingdom with a reservation at Rainforest Cafe. There is one at the Mall of America close to us, but we never go there so I thought it would be a fun experience for the kids. As soon as I told our server that I had Celiac Disease, she sent…
Gluten-Free DisneyWorld 2018 – Disney Springs
The day we went to Disney Springs was supposed to be our “rest” day, but I decided to book an appointment for my daughter at Bippidi Boppidi Boutique (so freaking cute and worth every penny) and we ended up spending the whole day there. I am so glad we did that though because I had…
