One of my favorite things about my childhood happened to be a certain day of the week: Sunday. My family and I would wake up, leave our pajamas on, and pray to the Almighty bready breakfast food gods. Depending on my mother’s mood, we either sang our praises to pancakes or waffles drenched in syrup, but always to bacon! Bacon was always present. So in…

Gluten-free Vegan Sugar-Coated Donuts
Gluten-Free Vegan Sugar-Coated Donuts Last night, I was caught watching the OWN station on television. I don’t usually make a habit of it typically but there was something about the Jane Fonda interview that rapidly caught my attention. It touched my heart deeply, partly because I empathized a lot of what she was saying. But the thing that she said that…
Gluten Free Graham Crackers
Continuing on our “Snacks-I-ate-as-a-kid” theme, I was a huge graham cracker lover. Particularly the graham sticks kind. My favorite thing to do was grab a few crackers (oh, who am I kidding?

I could really go for Vegan Better Cheddars right now. I posed the question on Facebook last night, “What was your favorite childhood snack growing…

Homemade Fortune Cookies
If you were to open my wallet, you would find a dozen fortune cookie messages tucked inside the side panel. I have grown fond of saving all of the fortunes from the cookies I have opened in the past few years. Consider them like collector’s coins. Except they are paper. Inside a cookie. Some range from…
Grandma is sitting this one out on New Year’s…
This is the funny thing about holidays that require me to stay up into the wee hours of the night: I usually don’t celebrate them. (thankfully that only makes 1 holiday missed for the year) You see friends, I am what you call a “grandma”– no offense to the real grandmas out there. It’s just that I am…
