During the Spring and Summer when fruits are at their peak flavors, there is no better dessert than a fresh from the oven fruit cobbler. You don’t even have to tell your family or guests just how easy it is to prepare. Just accept the complements and smile! Whenever I serve a cobbler, the discussion […]
Americans are often overwhelmed at baking scones, but I don’t quite understand why. In reality, they are another form of a quick bread, much like muffins, but without the special baking pans. Scones have a long and interesting history. The first mention of them is in the mid-1500’s in Scotland and England. They are always […]
Do you have company coming for some of the holidays? Breakfast for a crowd can be overwhelming sometimes, but this recipe is quick, easy, gluten-free and delicious. And it feeds a crowd! I was drawn to it because it uses ingredients I usually have on hand–anytime of the year. We love blueberries and eat them […]
I find it very helpful to have a recipe for a quick and easy loaf that can be served as a desert or a snack. I’m involved in several groups that have pot luck meals at meetings and I always want to be able to bring a gluten-free treat. This lovely lemon tea loaf is […]
We get lots of visitors in the summer, and this year is no different. Friends and family interested in a road trip or a visit to the Southwest often stopover at our house–and I love it! As a matter of fact, summer has always been my favorite season, even better than the Christmas holidays. I […]

It’s hot, it’s simmer and it’s Father’s Day. What better way to celebrate than to make a freezer cake that tastes like and orange creamsicle? Some of our best memories come from summers long ago and the creamy, cold treat of a frozen creamsicle is one of those everyone in my family enjoys. This recipe […]
For some reason, pineapple recipes always remind me of things my mother baked for us in the spring and summer. I thought it was because of the pineapple rings she would put on ham for Easter dinner or the ambrosia that was always served at wedding or baby showers or graduations. It doesn’t really make […]
Last spring I decided to take a short break, which turned into a whole year. Of course, I still baked gluten-free for my friends and family, but I just didn’t get around to posting on my blog. How I’ve missed it! So now I’m back and ready to be more responsible and post regularly. I […]
These were an item on a tea tray at an event I attended in February. Oh, so tasty! I decided to try to find a recipe to recreate these treats. As luck would have it, the tea company posted some of their best recipes a couple of weeks later and I got to use the […]
