It seems like since we’ve been gluten and dairy free, our packaged dessert consumption has gone WAY down (due to cost and taste). I guess that’s a good thing, but every once and a while, I crave a cookie that’s moist and flavorful and fresh from the oven. These gfdf coconut macaroons really hit the …

This yummy GFDF apple rhubarb crisp was the perfect blend of fall and spring. I used the apples from our tree and the remaining rhubarb from our garden. This recipe is gluten free and dairy free for those of you who are sensitive as we are. I can’t even tell the difference and serve it …

I am a Mormon. We have been counseled by our Church leaders for years to keep a year’s supply of food to help our families in case of an emergency or job loss. We haven’t had an emergency or a job loss, we just have all this food storage and I don’t ever use it. …

This month our family is living off of food storage (we have a one year supply). Why you ask? Well, there’s a few reasons. First, we need to save money. Second, because we need to rotate the storage we have and badly need to clean out the freezer and pantry. Third, it’s good to know …
