Sometimes you just have to go for it. That message was reinforced this past weekend. My husband researched a swimming hole in New Hampshire that we went to with our son after a good, sweaty hike up Mount Cardigan. The swimming hole, aptly called “Sculpted Rocks,” offered several steep spots to jump into a […]
What is it about a berry crumble?! It just feeds the soul. I love the recipe below, reswizzled to be gluten free. As soon as the berries are out in the marketplace I scoop them up and get crumbling….my family is always grateful…and for a moment I’m wearing that invisible queen crown again 🙂 So

If you are someone who is dealing with food sensitivities or a special diet, the holidays can create extra stress in your life. I know this first hand. This post is intended to help you breeze
