Gluten Free Coconut Granola

Posted in Gluten Free

If you’ve ever priced gluten free granola at the store, you know it can get pretty pricey which is a problem if you have someone in your family who really likes granola. When you have several people who like granola, you end up using granola as a garnish rather than as the main breakfast dish because it’s just too expensive. One of those store-bought bags of granola usually equals roughly 4 bowls of cereal – maybe. Since I buy gluten free oats in bulk, the cost of making oatmeal and granola goes down significantly. I also buy my raisins, nuts,…

Special thanks to Gurin for providing a sample massager for review purposes. We’ve been pretty busy around here between getting ready for Munchkin’s graduation and getting our place ready for spring. Since we don’t have a tractor, hauling dirt and composted manure for the garden is all done with a shovel and dump cart. It’s rewarding but tiring work. We often end the day with aching muscles. Some days are worse than others due to the amount of work that needs to be done. I’m constantly amazed at how much work homesteaders get done in a day. We’re not full…

Review: Epic Tomatoes by Graig LeHoullier

Special thanks to the publisher for providing a review copy of this book. I need to start this post off with a warning. In many parts of the country, it’s cold and dreary. Some places have snow on the ground. The longing for spring has already started to fill people’s hearts. Epic Tomatoes will not help with that – at all.

I was resting in bed reading Epic Tomatoes only to find…
