As a community leader at Udi’s Gluten Free, a mom to a daughter with allergies, and someone who deals with food sensitivities, I was excited to learn about Dollywood’s Start Fresh program. During my recent Brandcation trip to Dolly Parton’s theme park in Pigeon Forge, Tennessee, our group had the chance to meet with food [...]
When I learned I had a food sensitivity to whey, I gave up milk and yogurt. This meant no more cereal, no more cookies and milk snacks, and no more smoothies. It also meant that foods like quiche, creamy soups, pancakes, and mashed potatoes were off limits since they also contain milk. Major bummer, right? [...]
Do you have a constant runny nose, migraine headaches, or sore tummy that’s making you wonder if what you’re eating is bad for you? Are you suspecting it’s food sensitivities, allergies or maybe even celiacs disease? Join me, Jo-Lynne of Musings of a Housewife, Alta of Tasty Eats at Home, Penelope of Penlope’s Oasis, and [...]

It’s probably why Divvies Bakery in South Salem, New York contacted me about reviewing some of their products. Divvies [...]
Did you know that 13 pieces of California Roll sushi have only 9.5 Weight Watchers Flex Plan Points? So not only is sushi low in points, fat, calories, and healthy for you but it’s delicious as well. That’s why I love it, and most folks agree. In the October 4, 2006 Newsday story, Sushi swims [...]
Happy almost Thanksgiving! Thanks for joining me between brining the turkey and baking the pies. This week’s Food Blog of the Week is the Gluten Free Goddess. I really appreciate her gluten free since my mother-in-law has celiac. Cooking for her isn’t much of a challenge, now that I’ve discovered all the gluten free mixes, [...]
My mother-in-law Melba Jean has celiac sprue. Basically she cannot eat anything with gluten in it or she’ll become violently ill. She’s been staying with us for the past two weeks and is leaving tomorrow. While she’s here, she’d like to celebrate my birthday with us. (I turn 40 on Monday.) Since this means I’m [...]
