Have you been to @posriceandspice yet?? They label GF items right on the menu and there are TONS of options. I got the egg drop soup, spicy mussels (which we ate so fast I didnโt even take a picture ๐), and then the reason I cameโฆtheir Pad Thai ๐ And I just wanna know, do any other celiacs do this with the fortune cookie?? Smash it in the plastic so you donโt have to touch it but so you can read your fortune? ๐ lemme know.
I couldnโt not have @kaylamartelstyle work have a permanent place on the feed ๐๐ผโโ๏ธ Itโs always a glow up at @cachezsalon โ๏ธ
110 Grill in Manchester, CT is open! ๐๐ Their entire core menu can be made gluten free, they have dedicated gluten free fryers, and their allergy protocols are killer. This is a MUST visit if youโre even anywhere close! I got the fried pickles and the hot honey chicken sandwich ๐ both were bomb. Let me know what you guys usually get because I feel like I can never not get the hot honey chicken lol

Went to @zinascucina in Marlborough, CT for the first time recently and it was lovely! The atmosphere is sort of like upscale Italian meets neighborhood spot? Adorable. They clearly mark GF items on the menu and thereโs a good amount to choose from. I went with the arugula mozzarella salad and the bacon wrapped pork ๐ฝ๏ธ Their drink menu is awesome too! Pictured is the Honey Pear Collins ๐ Have you been before??
Cotton Hollow Kitchen in Glastonbury, CT is a gluten free hot spot for sure! They have a gluten free menu, a dedicated gluten free fryer, and they get a lot of their bread items from @deesonesmartcookie which we all know is 10/10! Will definitely be going back. I got the carne asada nachos and the smash burger. Both were ๐ฅ And they had about a thousand flavors of margaritas to choose from which thrilled me ๐ Have you been yet??
Looking for gluten free breakfast on the go? @faithcafegf in Columbia, CT has the most amazing breakfast sandwich! Itโs a homemade gluten free English muffin piled high with egg, bacon, cheese, avocado, caramelized onion, and spinach โ๏ธ Can you believe they make the English muffin themselves!? Itโs a dedicated gluten free cafe so no worries about cross contamination. They also have a breakfast burrito, killer muffins, donuts, a breakfast cookie, smoothiesโฆthe list goes on. And all gluten free โจ
โจ ๐๐ต๐ผ๐ฐ๐ผ๐น๐ฎ๐๐ฒ ๐ฃ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ป๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ฃ๐ถ๐ฒ โจ This is an easy pie to make and a definite crowd pleaser! Perfect for the holidays. I wanted to take a better picture but there was a VERY excited 3 year old waiting to try it lol 1๏ธโฃ I used the @wholly_gf frozen pie crust and baked it according to the package (15 min at 350ยฐ) 2๏ธโฃ Then comes the first layer which is like the filling in a Reeseโs. Crush half a package of @scharglutenfree graham crackers and mix with 1/2 cup peanut butter, 1 stick melted butter, and 1 cup powder sugar. Layer it on top of the crust. 3๏ธโฃ Make a box of chocolate pudding according to package directions (just the mix and water and beat it for 2 min). Layer this on top of the peanut butter layer. 4๏ธโฃ The top layer is whipped cream! I made homemade by just whipping 1 cup of heavy cream with 2 tbs sugar. Beat it until itโs the right consistency. 5๏ธโฃ Grate a Reeseโs cup on top for a little pizazz and then chop up some more Reeseโs cups to put on top. Let it sit in the fridge for at least a few hours to set! Enjoy ๐
If you havenโt been to @amanotacoshop in Willimantic, you gotta go! Everything thatโs gluten free is labeled on their menu. When I asked if there was anything that was gluten free that wasnโt celiac friendly, the owner said they could always make whatever you want in new oil or a separate surface so thatโs music to our celiac ears ๐ถ I tried one of all of their street tacos and every single one was ๐ค๐ป Also tried their smoked salmon tostada (pictured) and that was amazing. But my absolute favorite was the Quesa Birria TacosโShort Rib, Cheese, Onion, Cilantro, and Consomme Broth ๐ฅ They also have frozen margarita swirls which are so fun and 10/10. I did the Piรฑa-Rita Swirl ๐ Have you been!?
It had been over a YEAR since I had my hair cut and even longer since I got it colored. I blame pregnancy and postpartum. I asked @cachezsalon to give me Jennifer Aniston on The Morning Show vibes and she delivered โจ
๐๐น๐๐๐ฒ๐ป ๐๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฒ ๐ฃ๐๐บ๐ฝ๐ธ๐ถ๐ป ๐ฆ๐ฝ๐ถ๐ฐ๐ฒ ๐ฃ๐น๐ฎ๐๐ฑ๐ผ๐๐ด๐ต This is SO easy with just 2 ingredients and the texture is fantastic. Plus it smells like pie ๐ฅง Definitely make this for or with your kiddos before the season is over!! All you need is: -1 can of pumpkin (15oz) -2 cups cornstarch -a few dashes pumpkin spice (optional) If it feels too sticky, just add more cornstarch! And itโs perfect for babies or young toddlers who are still putting things in their mouth because itโs totally edible! Let me know if you make it ๐

I was excited that I went into labor on my own and wouldnโt need pitocin, but my body was doing a little too much for my liking lol Adam and I walked the halls for a little bit, pausing when I had a contraction so I could lean on him. It would have been one thing if I had breaks in between my contractions, but the contractions had been like 3 minutes apart for HOURS and the back labor was continuous. The contractions were continuing to be 2-3 minutes apart, lasting 1-2 minutes each time, and the back labor hadnโt let up for hours. Finally after 2 minutes, but what felt like a life time, they got Jack out, snipped his umbilical cord (no delayed cord clamping here) and handed him over to the NICU team in the room.
Making my way through the world one gluten free meal at a time I made this recipe dairy free! For the rest of the recipe: 1/4 cup cheddar cheeseโฆor more if you love cheese! (I used dairy free)1/4 cup bread crumbs Use seasoned or make your own. Brush butter onto your muffin tins and then sprinkle bread crumbs into the bottom of each.
