Look What Came In The Mail!

Look what my fellow gluten-free blogger friend, Karina, sent me! It's cute and funny - the best combination!  As you may have heard, Karina had a bad fall, but is on the mend now.

Thanks, Karina! Get well soon!

More fun stuff...

Get A Little Nutty with Nut Tea Cookies! These were at the Fancy Food Show this year and they are crazy good! Although these fine cookies are a bit crumbly they are wheat and gluten free; they are kind to the carb conscious; they contain no refined sugars and they are completely free of trans-fats. Nut-Teas contain healthy walnuts and almonds, and provide 15% of the RDA for Vitamin E and 430 mcg of Omega-3 fatty acids! (These do contain butter.)

Since these are only available in a few specialty shops nationwide, the easiest way to get some is to order online. It would be smart to squirrel a few boxes of these kooky treats away for a rainy day, or as a fun, not so easy to come by, gift for someone special.

Cameo the baker at Crave Bakery in San Francisco, has come up with the perfect little lemon tart! These are gluten-, dairy-, soy- and corn-free! Mmmmm. While I was munching on one of these I had a pre-gluten-free flashback of a formal tea at the Empress Hotel in Victoria, B.C. My dream is that eventually every tea salon ends up serving these lovely little tarts to gluten-free visitors. No one else will ever have to know that they are gluten-free.

These are only available at stores in certain areas.
