Pumpkin Bars
Posted on October 25, 2010
In honor of fall, I spent several days last week in a pumpkin “trance,” experimenting with various iterations of gluten free baked goods containing pumpkin. At first, I had terrible failures.

Pumpkin Pie Muffins
Posted on October 17, 2008
These gluten free Pumpkin Pie Muffins are, of course, a favorite of my younger son. When he was little, he ate so much pumpkin and winter squash that he turned a slightly orange hue. Luckily, he’s back to normal now. I often forget how much I love cooking with pumpkin until fall arrives. Well, fall

Apple Crisp
Posted on January 31, 2008
Saying no. Sometimes this is the only thing to do. E (my 7 year old) was home with a bit of a flu this week. He has actually been lying on the couch whining and whimpering for several days. Today was the first day he felt better and he asked me to make him an
