30 Lessons from The Whole 30
Okay, so I made it 27 days. Or 26 with a slice of cake, oh and that thing on day 20 when I had a tortilla and a couple of cocktails. What I’m trying to say is, I’m not perfect, people. I know you totally thought I was due to this, this, and this. But … Continue reading
Week 2 on The Whole 30, Or, Why Am I Crying?
Okay, not so much crying. But it has been a weird adjustment to this grain-free, legume-free, dairy-free, sugar-free, booze-free diet. I’ve found myself doing lots of “big picture” thinking and feeling very emotional. I feel like this must be a bad time to make any life altering decisions because right now I just keep thinking … Continue reading
My Week (Or Two) in Paleo
It seems I’ve picked up some bad eating habits what with the traveling, the working a ton, the two kids who convince me that yes, nachos three times a week is a FANTASTIC idea. (Yes, I did just blame my kids for my nacho consumption.) I think you know I lack discipline on a good … Continue reading
What to Expect at the Celiac Disease Foundation Expo: Books, Cookies & Dinosaurs
Okay, at least one of those things. And me! Me! I’ll be up in Pasadena this weekend at the CDF Conference and big ass gluten-free expo selling my books to the FIRST PEOPLE IN AMERICA. Whoo-hooo!

But before I get all wise and zen-like, let me just say … Continue reading
My Mom & Gluten
Sometimes you really don’t want to write things down. Like, you can live with it in your head. You can deal with the theoretical, but when it happens IRL, and then you go around having to say it out loud to people, wow, does it suck. Believe it or not, I’m not talking about my … Continue reading
10 Things I Learned From the Gluten-Free Diet
So the first thing I cooked up in my Dutch oven the second I was finished with this gluten-free reset diet situation was gluten-free short ribs and black beans (recipe later). I also had some gluten-free Omission beer, and a gluten-free cupcake, as seen above. Not coincidentally, I also had a wicked gluten-free stomach ache because apparently … Continue reading
Oh, Hell It’s a Gluten-Free Diet: Week 3
Tomorrow I begin my third week of serious calorie restriction, you guys. Which is why I’m writing this with a delicious peaty Scotch in my hand. I know. My trainer is going to KILL me. But that’s it. I’m back on and truly committed to my lunches of gluten-free miso soup and cucumbers for the … Continue reading
Oh, Hell It’s a Gluten-Free Diet: Week 2
This is not a meal. Is it delicious? Yes. Is it nutritious? Well, duh. But it still isn’t going to count as breakfast. Except it does, and I wasn’t even all that hungry after! What?!? I know. Clearly, this whole reset thing is tricking my brain into thinking that I don’t need pleasure at mealtime … Continue reading
