Man what have I been doing? Not blogging about all the goodies I've been consuming! I guess I am not the best at this blogging thing! I do share my photo's regularly on Facebook tho.

<---Those yummi apple caramel babies right there, oh those are amazing.{ As if I could create something that was less then stupendous.}
I had some apples that needed to be used so I figured, LET'S BAKE. That seems to be the solution to most of my obstacles . F*ck it, Bake it. My life usually consists of baking, eating or giving no cares. I was very worried at first being that the dough was soooo thick. I added an extra egg drizzled them with caramel, sprinkled them with brown sugar and HUURRAYY Autumn happiness exploding in my mouth. Explosions in your mouth are fun<--TWSS. LOL Dirty Girl.
This gluten Free baking life can be stressful, frustrating, money wasting, time consuming, yet in still the reward of discovering a new amazing recipe is worth all of the stress.

A little bit of randomness in my kitchen lately.
I made a HUGE breakfast for one of my friends and I on a Sunday Morning. I baked up some chocolate cookies, and then broiled them thinking the oven was off. Hence the name Boo Boo cookies. I made a Boo Boo and they kinda look like boo boo, but taste like chocolaty heaven.
Oh and those Dream cookies, those are crack. Literally. I think I ate the whole bag in 1 1/2 days. Paid for it running the other day. Last but not least who doesn't like Deviled Eggs in the summer. Well I do. Killed those too! (killed= did things to them in such a fast manor it should be illegal. I ate emm up!)

Birthday Love











These lovely ladies were created special for me. I made them for my Birthday Party! For some Odd reason I thought that we would have plenty left over, I was wrong. They were gobbled up fast and in a hurry. All right before Roller Skating.

Summer Fun


This summer is turning out to be a good one. Being that we just recovered from a hellacious heat wave, were still going strong. I had company for a week and I enjoyed it very much. Though I can be some what of an organizational freak, it went well. The kids had plenty to do, and if they didn't the XBOX found plenty for them. One of my favorite memories so far this summer was our group trip to the fair. Ah the country side, the smell of the great out doors, long country roads, blue skies white fluffy clouds and ice cream. We all had a blast! We were 10 deep {meaning there was 10 of us in our crew} We all decided to take part in the Watermelon Eating Contest, of which Kim won 1st place. OMG it was hilarious. She just opened her mouth and swallowed. <--Ma'am!
The boys really didn't want any parts of it, but being the loving mothers we are, we made them. Of course their hearts weren't into it so they lost, TO A GIRL! Lol I don't think Emmanuel will be craving watermelon for a while. At the fair we got to see all the prized animals, pies and crafts. Being a small community fair there wasn't too much to see, but just enough to keep us occupied.
After the fair we all made our way to my new FAVORITE Ice Cream place Moo Thru! OMG the Ice Cream here is AMAZING! I think God himself blesses it before it enters your mouth. It's so creamy and yummy! They are totally natural and the cream comes from their pasture located right behind the store. The plus is they are Gluten Free! The down side they are allllllll the way out in Faquire County! Moo Thru is a hidden gem in the country side. I kinda like it this way. If they became a chain the taste would change, and so would my love for them.
The first time we went, I just got a single scoop with fudge. I was trying to be a good girl. The 2nd time we went I was prepaired. Gluten Free Oreo cookies and all. Yes I brought my own cookies to the Ice Cream Stand, ain't no shame in my game. Those cookies and my double scoop of Butter Pecan with hot Fudge drizzled on top was pure sugar/Ice Cream SIN! Good sin not bad sin if there is such a thing, the kind of sin that God would approve of, only if confession was done in the form of sit ups the next day. Trust me how ever many calories that over powered my ice cream was worth it. Down to the very last drop!
Now I have a new summer treat spot, and new memories with the best kid, and friends a girl could want.

EggCersizing my Addiciton

So I have been on this Egg fix lately.
I mean seriously eating eggs.
Deviled Eggs, Hard boiled Eggs,
then today I did the most amazing thing you can do to Eggs.
Put them in an Omelet.
Not just any Omelet.
A Mango Peach Salsa stuffed Omelet.
Oh and cheese, basil and 2 jalapenos.
Not the ones from my Garden yet, but soon.
I do need to share about that as well. I will post pictures.
It was heavenly!
Making Omelets can be somewhat of a science.
You have to make sure the egg can handle all the stuffings in the middle.
I like to stuff them!
Ha, ha, giggle giggle.
I love the fact that I can just go out to my deck, and there is fresh basil.
Makes me feel all earthly!
like I am doing what my ancestors did.
Lived off God. AKA Nature!
I know this cooking thing just comes naturally to me, and I can't wait till
I can share my gift with you.

It's a Baby Celebration


This past weekend was a Gluten Free feasting frenzy! I hosted my Best friend of many, many, many years, baby shower. It was amazing! Almost EVERYTHING on the menu was Gluten Free Lil Bee. Other than her special ordered Panda Dos Gluten cake (yuck) everything was gluten free. of course no one could tell the difference, being I am such and amazing cook, and cooking Gluten free is easy.
Everything was so colorful and matched with her Safari theme. We had animals, fruit, hamburgers hot dogs and goodies galore. Being that we were both so busy we didn't really get enough pictures to justify how glorious this party was.
We even sent the guests home with Gluten Free Fruity Bars. Of which I ate about 10 over the course of the weekend. Horrible addiction to them I have. Currently speaking with a doctor about it. Helping with this baby shower made me realize that I love to cook, I love to feed people and I love love love for people to love my food. Love and food what more could a girl want. The prep was calming and a chance for me to meditate on my love of what I do. I love how everything matched and all colors were coordinated, which should always be matching. Everyone had a great time. We all pigged out. The Mama to be was very satisfiyed with what I produced. Can't wait to meet her Panda. Love you Debra Lyn !!!

Strawberries and Cream

I found myself in the kitchen AGAIN this weekend. I know that this is because this is where I love to be, other than the pool. Being that the pool isn't open just yet, I will continue to bake.
I am not a huge cheese cake fan, I figured I would tackle making one. To my surprise I loved it. The Crust was HEAVENLY! Perfect treat for a May Day!
