How I almost “missed” Thanksgiving

Holiday’s are especially exhausting for a bakery owner. I got up on Thanksgiving day and rearranged my family room to make room for the Christmas Tree. Then put the turkey in the oven and laid down for a little nap. I told my son Connor to wake me after an hour and off to slumber I went. I woke up … Read More

How I “over come” Chronic Fatigue

  When Connor was in first grade I started really feeling rough.  I would ache all over most of the time.  I was the PE teacher at his school at the time.  When we would pull into the garage I would have to sit and rest before I could muster up the energy to come inside our home.  I would … Read More

Almost Vegan?

I come in to work and have been working with one of my favorite people in the whole world, Hennessey.  We are going about our individual assignments quietly focussed when suddenly rather loudly she blurts out, “Chicken Nuggets!”  I look up and say, “Excuse me?”  She proceeds to tell me how much she would like to have me make her … Read More

Can Kissing Make You Sick?

One morning my son Connor came to me and said he’d been sickly for about two months.  I was shocked.  He said he had been hiding it so I wouldn’t freak out.  Understood.  He said he was telling me now because he just couldn’t figure out how it was happening.  He was so careful at school and washed his hands … Read More

Mother’s Day

As a mom of two I see the true value in having a special day once a year to honor our Mothers.  Being a mom takes a lot of commitment. Especially when the child has Celiac disease, gluten intolerance or food allergies.  A mother’s dedication to her child is the reason she stays so driven in search of safe food … Read More

Two Years and Counting…

We can hardly believe our little Gluten Free Miracles Bakery & Cafe’ has been open for two years.  We hit the ground running and like most brand new concepts had no idea what we were doing.  I can honestly say that we have learned much in this journey.  I’m proud that our products are consistent and wonderful.  We have helped … Read More
