It's time. Our 4th Annual Team Gluten-Free Walk is coming up on Saturday, May 18th. I need YOUR help. I've vowed to GET A GRAND for the Celiac Disease Foundation – yes, $1,000 by May 18th. (and I've got a … Continue reading →

In times like these, there aren't always words. I struggle to find a way to express the feelings of grief, frustration, anger, sadness, and helplessness from this week — from Boston to Texas, offering up prayers everyday. But sometimes, when … Continue reading →

You may remember me telling you about our anniversary getaway to Angel Inn Bed and Breakfast in the fall. They (and the husband) went ALL out to serve me gluten-free goodness all weekend long. Everything in that photo is gluten-free. … Continue reading →

You saw in my post last week that my shiny new breadmaker arrived — one of the many generous prizes from the GF cookie contest. (you'll also notice an increase in workout photos over on Instagram — this is a … Continue reading →

This post is part of the #glutenfreeinMKE series where I share my dining out experiences, local products to check out, and just general gluten-free goodness in and around Milwaukee. The star of today's show… Schroeter's Gluten Free Bakeshop's pizza crusts. … Continue reading →

  It's funny how we rush through our days, anxious to get to the next event, take another call, send a follow up email. So rare that we take a moment to just BE. I was in the exact opposite … Continue reading →

Mark just called and said he'll be here in ten minutes — so let's make this short and sweet shall we? We're headed up north for spring break! But before I hit the road, here's what the week looked like. … Continue reading →

As you know, I find joy in the little things in life — like my Christmas Cactus that is taking bloom this week. Everyone in our family got part of the plant from my grandparents' home, after they had passed … Continue reading →

  After running around doing errands this afternoon, my mama and I collapsed on the couch this evening and fed our Downton Abbey addiction. We can't help ourselves. Mark served us dinner — Sheperd's Pie —  in front of the … Continue reading →

Thursday afternoon this little guy showed up. (along with his mama, my mama, and his three brothers) Our apartment was alive. Two were crawling. Two were racing up to the attic, their new found secret hiding place — which turned … Continue reading →

Talk about interesting dinner guests — Fox 6 stopped by for dinner the other night! WELCOME to those stopping by after seeing the story air tonight. If you didn't get a chance to tune in, you can view the full … Continue reading →

    My whirlwind of a week. From Denver… Have I mentioned how much I love Denver? (Probably because there are always snacks waiting.) And this little bee. And her sweet pea sister. And plenty of treats! Back home to … Continue reading →

*Update 2/9: sorry if you stopped by yesterday when I posted this but the photos weren't showing up — kind of defeats the purpose of Friday Photos. Here it is again. The alarm went off at 4:30am and there has … Continue reading →

Over the weekend, our friends from the farm headed into the city for "Taco Night" at our place. We wanted something simple (Mark has been traveling frequently) so we wouldn't have to think about the food, but instead just hang … Continue reading →

Still on a high from chatting with a writer from the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel this morning. We talked all things gluten-free, which as you know, I could talk about all day. It was refreshing to speak with someone from the … Continue reading →

Where did this week go? (seriously, if someone could explain, please do.) Wasn't I just talking about being on a road trip to Minnesota? I It was our "Joy in January" party, which I think is going to become a … Continue reading →

We're midway through our road trip to Minnesota, for "Christmas Joy in January" with my family. This week….. I've been playing around with my cinnamon bread recipe — made it into muffins, added some glaze, packed ‘em up for the … Continue reading →

While Friday Photos were on hiatus, pictures were piling up on the phone. And then I caught up with technology with a new iPhone… causing more of a stock pile. So this week I'm emptying photos from the old phone … Continue reading →

  There's a big game happening tonight, folks — Packers vs Vikings — and the smack talk has already started with my celiac sista. (poor thing is a Vikings fan) Whether you're headed to a Packer party or just putting … Continue reading →

It's 2013. There's a new list for new the year. It's Friday. I missed the photos. (and it's on the list to take more, print more, say cheese more) Plus my work schedule will exclude Fridays this semester — long … Continue reading →

After I finished up these cookies the other night, I wasn't completely satisfied. For just an instance, I slipped into feeling sorry for myself. Wanting them to be exactly like their gluten-filled counterpart. You see, Sunday I spent the entire … Continue reading →

You know you're behind on blog posts when your mama is sending you a photo from her phone of a recipe you made, told her about, gave her the recipe, but had yet to post. Thanks for the kick in … Continue reading →

This week I hosted our Gluten-Free Get Together event at Rochambo on Brady Street. (where they serve up goodies from Molly's GF Bakery) Mixed things up this month, instead of a dinner, we got together for dessert and after dinner … Continue reading →

  Yes, RumChata is gluten-free. And you should start using it — in some RumChata Cream Cheese Frosting perhaps? Can you believe my BFF out in Denver has NEVER had RumChata? Nope. Never. I know. But don't you worry, I'm … Continue reading →

*Note: this is a long one folks… but worth the read and the book is so worth the buy, so go grab it now! Then get your coffee with coconut milk and let’s talk paleo. Keeping with the paleo book … Continue reading →

Social media is blowing up with talk of SNOW in southeastern Wisconsin this morning. What the what? No thanks, you can keep the snow. I'm not ready for it. My current heat bill is a-okay the way it is, thank … Continue reading →

Last month we celebrated our 1st wedding anniversary. My husband went waaaaaay above and beyond and planned a weekend getaway to Green Lake, WI — we stayed at the most beautiful place, Angel Inn Bed & Breakfast. (I'll be writing … Continue reading →

It has been three years of me and my ramblings here at Celiac in the City. Can you believe it? I think that calls for a little celebrating, yes? PUMPKIN PIE WAFFLES 1 ¼ cups gluten-free flour mix — mine was … Continue reading →

You know what I've kind of been missing? Friday Photos. They went on for about a year, and then because my work schedule changed, and I started dreading doing the posts, I put them to rest for a while. (not … Continue reading →

It's fall, folks! That's "my tree" that I see on my walk to work each morning — after this weekend's dreary weather, it is lacking in the leave department. But they are just as pretty on the ground. Campus is … Continue reading →

My sister and I talk about food pretty much everyday. No lie. We send each other food photos, share recipes, question the gluten-free status of products, and dream about the bakery we should just go ahead and open. When I … Continue reading →

I was lucky enough to receive a copy of Eat Like a Dinosaur a couple of months ago, and am finally getting around to talking more about it. I'll start out by just getting to the point — go out … Continue reading →

If you're following along over on Facebook, you know that my laptop has been playing some funny games with me lately — basically, it works when it wants to. Frustrating. I'm not so much a patient person, so you can … Continue reading →

This is a post I've been sitting on since last week Thursday — the night of our Gluten-Free Get Together at Rustico Pizzeria in Milwaukee. I debated just letting this go, hoping things would just die down and I could … Continue reading →

I was up and at ‘em early today.   It's my last day as a WOL — a "woman of leisure," the nickname my husband gave sister Laura and I this summer. My alarm was set for 6:00, just like … Continue reading →

Before going gluten-free, I felt like a pretty competent baker — banana bread was easy-peasy, cakes were for fun on birthdays, cut-outs were a breeze. Scooping all-purpose flour and leveling it out, then dumping it into a bowl was a … Continue reading →

Sitting at the airport in Denver. Delayed. For a couple hours. And Michael Phelps could be on at any minute…but the only TVs are at the bars. So I might be going for a drink…. Today's post is straight from … Continue reading →

My favorite margaritas are served at Rio in Denver. (and last time I was there, they double checked and the chips and salsa are safe too) I used to drink margaritas that consisted of tequila and a mediocre mix from … Continue reading →
