The clothing is simple, yet unique and the quality is lasting.  My mother-in-law and I both found items we love on a recent shopping session. Tulips. These fresh... Read more »

My new guilty pleasure

My new guilty pleasure
I discovered a sweet, somewhat guilt-free, treat that I wanted to share with you. So Delicious uses organic ingredients, and are always 100 percent plant-based and Non-GMO Project Verified with no artificial sweeteners, trans-fats, or hydrogenated oils. I love the decadent cookie dough, but also want to try chocolate peanut butter swirl and turtle trails. This... Read more »

Dairy-free eating: does it work?

Dairy-free eating: does it work?
Since October when the holistic doctor gave me a test and revealed I was allergic to dairy, I’ve been really strict about eliminating it from diet.  It isn’t difficult anymore; it quickly has become part of my life. I’m the one at the restaurant asking if each component of my meal includes dairy, and I’m... Read more »

Vegan cheese: worth it or worthless?

Vegan cheese: worth it or worthless?
March marks five months of dairy free eating.  For the most part I would consider it easy.  It is surprising how much eating habits can adapt to restrictions with time.  Even my cheese loving husband has consumed many dairy free meals and agrees there are little benefits for including dairy in his diet.  The kids,...

Dairy-free banana applesauce muffins

Dairy-free banana applesauce muffins
I have lost a few pounds since I cut dairy from my diet mainly because of the lack of cheese in my life.  I still drool over thoughts of pizza or a dinner of Brie and wine, but have managed to stay away from the fanciest of fromage. Even harder is giving up on most... Read more »
