The food in LA is to live and die for 🤩 Our first time away in almost two years, we were so excited to visit our friends. Of course I brought a wish list of bakeries, cafes and restaurants to hit up that cater to gluten-free people. Every single place freaking blew me away and we barely made it through the list so I guess we’ll have to go back. Who’s in? 🌴

I know I’ve posted about these gluten-free paste

I know I’ve posted about these gluten-free pasteis de nata (aka Portuguese custard tarts) from @thegffairy before. But I’m posting them again because they are THAT good. Rich creamy egg custard nestled inside a flaky pastry crust and sweetly caramelized on top. I’m blown away and so grateful to have a gluten-free version of these iconic tarts! They don’t call Taina @thegffairy for nothing 🧚🏼

Do gluten-free people love their bakeries or what?

Do gluten-free people love their bakeries or what?! We asked for your faves and you didn’t hold back (see our stories). How sweet it is that there are so many freaking awesome bake shops that cater to g-free peeps! Thanks to all the GF bakers and bakeries for making magic happen so people who are gluten free don’t feel deprived of the sweet and savoury baked goods they love.

If you didn’t get a chance to reply to our poll, tag your go-to gluten-free bakery in the comments. If you’re like us, you love the donuts from one place and the bagels from another and the cupcakes from somewhere else. And you will travel for croissants! 🥐🥯🍞🧇🎂🍩🍪🧁

It was a beautiful day and it would have been the

It was a beautiful day and it would have been the perfect day for Gluten Free Garage, which was supposed to happen today.

Instead it was the perfect day for the #gfreewifeyfoodbank virtual 5km.

It was the perfect day to do the #gfreewifeyfoodbank walk in the Beltline with my fabulous friend @celiacandthe6ix.

It was the perfect day for @rizstclair takeout (see pic 4, very popular crispy beef).

It was the perfect day for gelato at @onthirdthought. I had a double scoop: coffee on the bottom, cookies and cream (made with @kinnikinnickgf cookies) on top.
Every flavour at this new “allergy-conscious” gelato/wine bar is gluten free and free from soy, nuts and sesame. It’s also vegan, though I never would have guessed because both flavours were so creamy. I can’t wait to go back and sit on the patio and have one of their boozy gelatos (mojito, pina colada or aperol spritz)!

In the meantime, I’ve started making plans for the next Gluten Free Garage, which I have a good feeling will actually happen on September 26th, in some way, shape or form. Here’s hoping for the perfect day then too and maybe some gelato🍦

Holy cannoli 💥 This box of chocolate chip canno

Holy cannoli 💥 This box of chocolate chip cannoli was THE most delicious bday gift from my fellow Aries and sweet tooth @celiacandthe6ix. That it took me so long to post about these babies is proof that I am indeed “languishing” (have you read the New York Times article on this?). So let me tell you belatedly that these cannoli are so beautiful from the inside out, with their sweet creamy ricotta filling and crunchy pastry shell sprinkled with icing sugar. Thanks @holycannolito for making a gluten-free version of this classic Italian pastry...and in six flavours! We cannoli feel the love 🥰

Mother’s Day is coming to a close and I’m lyin

Mother’s Day is coming to a close and I’m lying in bed looking at this moment that I recently captured. I’m thinking about how crazy it is that I get to be the mother of these two gorgeous in every sense of the word yet wildly different young women (and our @chiquitalechien too!). They have literally grown up in front of my eyes in the past year in countless ways. Being stuck at home together has been a blessing in disguise because I got to spend more time being close to them than I normally would have. I imagine them when this is over flying out the front door to meet up with friends and go places and be teenagers out in the world. Fly on, little wings (but not too far!) 💕

My daughters, Lily and Franny, were each named after my grandmothers (second photo). Growing up, I was so close with both of them. These dynamic women were both mothers of five children, could cook and bake and knit up a storm, and went to the same hair salon. Beyond that, they couldn’t have been more different and yet they were such good friends.

Nana Lil (on the left), my mom’s mother, passed away when I was seven months pregnant with our first child. After suffering several mini strokes, her health had been declining. The night before she died in the hospital, I got to tell her how much I love her and how much she means to me. I also told her that I was going to name my child after her. We didn’t know if we were having a boy or a girl. Two months later, we held our daughter in our arms and called her Lillian and I cried.

Bubby Fran, my dad’s mother, died unexpectedly of a heart attack when I was about two months pregnant with our second child. We hadn’t told anyone yet that I was expecting, so Bubby didn’t know. After she passed away I wished I would have let her in on our secret. I had a funny feeling that I was going to have another girl. And then along came Frances.

Nana Lil and Bubby Fran live on in my daughters. It gives me great comfort that Lily and Franny carry a piece of their great-grandmothers with them. It’s funny how life works 💗
