I love exploring new cities, visiting local iced tea shops (aka ‘coffee houses’), and walking around grocery stores I’ve never heard of. Last week I found Frazier Farms Market, and what a great find it was! With two locations in North County San Diego (Vista & Oceanside), stop in on your next drive ‘in the neighborhood’.
Enjoy my photo story of gluten-free finds in the store. Hoping it inspires you to pop into a ‘new-to-you’ store one day, and discover some great treasures of your own (please share!).

My delicious meal shared with my dad today ~ our Father’s Day panini bar lunch was a hit!
Holidays and eating pretty much go hand-in-hand. I used to wonder what I’d be able to eat when visiting other people’s homes for lunch and/or dinner, aside from what yummy gluten-free dish I’d bring. Today, it’s easy-peasy enjoying gluten-free get-togethers (especially when you hang out with some pretty good peeps – hey, birds of a feather! :o)).
More and more friends and family members are: hearing about gluten-free lifestyles, seeing the effects of their gluten-intolerant and celiac loved ones NOT following this lifestyle, and learning how easy it is to enjoy a safe, delicious holiday meal where everyone will enjoy the food. (Another reason I will continue to blog about it all, as so many have expressed their gratitude for the information – and ‘quirky’ writing style – I share with y’all.)

Many candies are now labeled if they’re gluten-free. We have choices!
It’s summer… the heat is on outside, and you’re headed inside for somewhere cool to be entertained a few hours. For some reason, the movie theaters aren’t loaded with fruits, veggies, and grilled protein. They’re loaded with lots of s – u – g – a – r. Let’s chat about gluten-free movie theater candy.
Before you guess-timate at the concession counter on what may or may not be safe for you to eat, first know your choices and enjoy a pain-free outing. The theater is stocked full of gluten-free options!

Six varieties of Cheerios are labeled gluten-free… what does their ‘mean’ mean?
I have enjoyed eating Cheerios since I was a wee little kiddo… as with many people in these United States of ours. They’re a simple snack for every age, from the youngest toddlers to the wisest elders, and easily found in most major grocery store chains.
In the past year, General Mills created six varieties of gluten-free Cheerios (Thank you, General Mills!). Since then, some questions have been buzzing on exactly what their “under 20 ppm mean” really means.

Sooooooo happy my favorite ice cream is gluten-free!
June 7 is National Chocolate Ice Cream Day… who knew? Time to grab your Ben & Jerry’s chocolate fabulousness. My intuition is pretty great, as yesterday’s post was about using Glutino’s Gluten-free Table Crackers as the ultimate ice-cream-spoon-replacer when I indulge in this fantastic chocolateness of joy!
Easy peasy. Ben & Jerry’s delivers our gluten-free community with LOTS of great gluten-free options (Thank You Ben & Jerry!) and I’m happy to say New York Super Fudge Chunk is my most favorite flavor. I’ve reached out to them to ask about an updated gluten-free list… stay tuned!
Bon appetito!
