There are a few things that I promised Husband I would never do. Among them are: 1) Forget to file taxes for years on end 2) Wear an “I’m with Stupid” T-shirt 3) Buy a pet cow and name it Dinner 4) Lobby to get a holiday named after myself and 5) Go to Las [...]
Okay, I’m going to talk about Christmas again. I know, Christmas was like so last year, but I’m nostalgic like that. I want to talk about Mice and Snowmen – the edible kind. Every year, Husband and I have a Boxing Day party. (If my non-Canadian readers are curious what that is – google it [...]
33 whole days. That’s how long I was in YYC over the holidays. And trust me, I took every opportunity I had to eat my way through the city. Up to the point of arrival, I hadn’t set foot in Calgary in a year. I was excited, I was nervous, I was about to be [...]
In my gluten eating life I had never once tried making lasagna. So it made perfect sense to try it in my Gluten Free/Dairy Free life. Why? Because I’m here for your entertainment. You’re welcome. So this is how it went down: 1. Buy GF lasagna noodles. 2. Google what to do. 3. Send Husband [...]

Sunday’s in my world are full of poncho’s, cheering, taunting, money won and lost and sometimes, just sometimes, there is a group hug. Why are my Sunday’s so fantastic? Because we have football Sunday’s! JAM! Every Sunday, Fiance and I head over to my parents house where we do laundry, eat lots of food, and [...]
Christmas is exactly a month away. That’s really not a lot of time to prepare for the awesomeness that is the Christmas Holiday. I’m a Holidork, and it’s kind of a big deal event to me. One of the most important parts is making sure that I have suitable GF replacements for my former gluten [...]
Butter Tarts Rule. My mother’s butter tarts kick your mothers butter tarts in the butt. So much so, that I have friends that request my mom make them butter tarts and mail them across the country. Oh yes, they are that good. You can only imagine my delight when I came across these little wonders. [...]
