It's become a pantry stable since I was diagnosed with Celiac last year. You can hardly bake anything gluten free without Xanthan Gum or Guar Gum. That said, there's really no need for anyone on a...

Inherited my great-grandmother's wedding china and a rather imposing collection of Christmas dishes from my great-aunt. As I currently live in a one bedroom apartment, I will be visiting both sets...

This is, by far, the most challenging spacehog issue in my kitchen. I'd love to go the glass route (and it would probably be better for me, considering how much I microwave) but I need lightweight...

I forgot to mention: It didn't taste like black beans at all. I never would have guessed if they hadn't told me.

Funny that you print this - there's a new yoga studio in my neighborhood and they sent me out the door after class with one of these gluten-free brownies left over from their Halloween party. They...

I'm doing both the kichn and apartmenttherapy cures which may have been a bit too much to bite off at once, but I'm having a great time. This weekend was mostly spent on other areas of the apt., b...

I have two ladles. And I use them all the time. And I live by myself. Go figure.

Man, do I ever understand that quandry about just finding the space to cut an onion. I unfortunately have very little counterspace in my kitchen. I can't do without either a drainboard or a micro...

I love this dish! I'll have to hit my local Chinatown and see if I can find this pre-shredded green papaya of which you speak.

I live by myself and it has made me very lazy. My housekeeping anymore is kind of embarrasing. I'd like to have someone over but that would really entail running the vacuum and mopping. I try to ...

Dias de los Muertos! My bad - forgive the typo!

I've got a friend who refers to mine as my altar of cultural anthropology. Some of it I've cultivated; some of the additions have been gifts from friends. I was raised on the border, so many of t...

I took 4 bags of stuff to my neighborhood swap meet this weekend. I didn't bring in flowers but I did bring in a new dining room table from Crate and Barrel. I can put the flowers for this week o...

This was painful, I have to be honest. I had inherited my great aunt's cookie press and I wound up taking it to the neighborhood swap meet this weekend. I felt horrible but it was just taking up ...

What luck - tomorrow there's a swap meet in my neighborhood where I can just drop off stuff that I don't want or need anymore. I guess I know what I'm doing with my Friday night! Special project:...

It's true - my ex's family used to have this at all gatherings. It's good stuff. Now I can make my own!

I collect them, but in truth, mine have been gathering dust for a little while. I got an idea just this week from another website that I like to frequent to choose a cookbook and cook out of it fo...

I can haz cookies? You really don't know how much it makes my day when y'all post a Celiac-friendly recipe. Thank you. (And I will so be making these for the holidays.)

I've had to start keeping various gluten-free flours in my refrigerator as they go rancid faster than standard wheat flour. It takes up most the bottom shelf of my refrigerator, unfortunately. I ...

The refrigerator, freezer, and pantry area in my kitchen were cleaned out this weekend. I have one more food storage area to tackle tonight in a shallow closet in my living room (gotta love NYC ap...
