Oh ya people, we’re talking about Millet today!
In Asia and Africa, millet is a staple cereal grain. Although it has fallen somewhat into obscurity in North America, I don’t think that all should be lost. Millet has some very redeeming qualities. Millet is not an acid forming food and so is soothing and easy to [...]

January 20th, 2009 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized 4 Comments »

Sahale Snacks strikes again. Glazed Nuts. Or as I refer to them: A bag of AWESOMENESS.

Before I had even opened the bag, I was warned that the glazed nuts are a bit addictive. Addictive is an understatement. Purely, completely, ridiculously awesome is more like it. At first bite, instinct takes over. You’re body goes into complete fight [...]

Oh wow do they know how to do GF down under!
Fiance and I had heard a rumor that the Outback Steakhouse had an extensive GF menu. Shortly after that we also learned that there was no longer one in Calgary. Saddened by the news we just kind of put it out of our minds.
