June Break Alert
Because Denise is busy planting the back 40 and dealing with some minor but annoying medical stuff, we’ve decided to take the month of June off. We may do some tinkering around here in the meantime, so don’t be surprised if you check in and things change a bit. But please meet us back here…

Yellow Hot Dog Mustard
Yellow Hot Dog Mustard It’s summer. It’s grilling season finally in New Hampshire – Shawn hauled the grill out of the garage and the patio furniture out of the shed yesterday. We need condiments. This is a pretty basic and easy mustard recipe. I’ve modified it from a canning recipe and made it allergy safe…

Vanilla Pear Caramel Butter
So, I’m still working on a corn-free, dairy-free, and coconut-free safe-for-me caramel that doesn’t have dates in it because (a) sourcing wheat-free dates can be hard, and (b) I freaking hate dates (I know, that’s weird).

WW: Gardening due to Food Allergies – Planning your Garden & Starting Seedlings
Okay, I’ve been telling MaryKate that I was going to do this post for a Whatever Wednesday since we bought the house. Obviously, that hasn’t happened. But better late never, and I’m currently trying to ignore the blizzard raging outside while writing this post and dreaming of spring. Depending on your cocktail of allergies (corn,…

Samosa Spiced Potato Puffs
When I suggested to MaryKate when we were planning our theme months for the year (yes, we know we’re crazy) that we should do potatoes for March, I was kinda thinking potatoes fit with March because of St. Patrick’s Day. Somehow, instead of an Irish themed dish, I’ve managed to come up with an Indian…
