Hi all! Thanks for visiting my little corner of the world, I thought I’d first start with a little intro about me. I was diagnosed with Celiac Disease when I was 5 years old. I am very sensitive to wheat/gluten exposure so I take the necessary precautions to make sure I follow a strict diet. My mom played an incredibly huge role from the time I was diagnosed until now, supporting me and pushing me to become my own self-advocate and self-taught cook!

Since I am so sensitive, for many years I simply dined at home. Experimenting with new recipes and pushing myself to bake more intricate pastries and baked goods slowly became a hobby turned passion. In the past two and a half decades since I was diagnosed, the industry for gluten free eating/dining has completely exploded. We saw more and more companies emerging that made gluten free products that are sold in area grocery stores, as well as more GF restaurants, shops and bakeries pop up. I have always been interested in sharing my staple go-to’s in my own kitchen as we’ll as the experiences I have had when dining out. There are many small businesses that dedicate themselves to creating gluten free and other allergen free products and they deserve a great deal of praise and recognition. My instagram hopes to highlight my GF health and wellness journey as well as showcase the restaurants and bakeries that go above and beyond for the GF community.
