Last year was my first gluten-free holiday season. I fretted and spent days planning and re-planning our Thanksgiving menu, the biggest food holiday for us. My husband and I share a vegan Thanksgiving feast each year, which has been challenge enough for two egg and butter-loving vegetarians. Remove the gluten, too, and well, I just…
Sweet of the Week #45, Just-Like-Oreos with Renee
While I don’t have an extensive list of gluten-filled items that I miss, I really miss JoeJoes from Trader Joes. The Candy Cane version offered during the holidays are so delicious and the vanilla bean filling in the everyday version elevates the typical sandwich cookie to a whole new level.

Sweet of the Week #44 1/2, Nutella Hazelnut Wafer Cookie Cupcakes

This week’s Sweet is free of refined sugar and is also vegan. I began with a recipe from the Babycakes cookbook, one of my favorite cookbooks…
Sweet of the Week #42, Sharlotka with Ivan
This week’s Sweet is Sharlotka, Russian apple cake. I started with this recipe from one of my favorite Kansas City area bloggers. I wanted to bake a recipe that was both seasonal and specific to Russia, as this week’s Sweet Friend immigrated to the U.S. from Russia. I went to a local apple orchard, bought…
