I’m bored with food. The fruit and veg is tasteless and goes bad fast. Salad is salad. Chicken is chicken. I’m just bored and unmotivated to eat. Enter, Home Gourmet Butter Chicken.

In a Pinch

It’s no secret that I’m addicted to GF Patisserie’s sandwich bread. That being said, I knew that when I picked this loaf up [...]

Word on the street is that Starbucks will soon be offering GF cake.  Rumor has it that it is an Orange Valentia Cake with Almonds. Not sure how I feel about that – I don’t like orange anything. The people in my life can attest to this. If you want to make me squirm, squeal [...]

Running in Hail.
April 14th, 2009 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized 1 Comment »

The weather sucks. It’s raining/hailing/windy/sunny and all around schizophrenic. So why am I going for a run? Because Bob made me. Specifically, Bob’s Red Mill Gluten Free Brownies made me. These brownies are so damn fabulous that you can justify eating the whole pan and not feel guilty about it – at least not until [...]
