Being Gluten-Free is Just Another Trend

Being Gluten-Free is Just Another Trend

By Therese I hear "Oh, you're on that gluten-free kick/trend/fad/thingy" that more times than "please and thank you" when my daughter and I are eating around others.  It's sad, really, that throughout hundreds of fad diets and gimmicks, that the gluten-free lifestyle is sort of looked down upon.  Don't get me wrong--there are products and restaurants that are successful solely because … [Read more...]

Easy Authentic Roasted Salsa (made by an Irish gal)

Easy Authentic Roasted Salsa (made by an Irish gal)

By Therese One of my favorite food bloggers, jenieats.com, has said once if not a dozen times that the directions and amounts for recipes she makes from memory are always a guess. She adjusts as she cooks, and those are the things that are in a more frequent rotation so she doesn't note precise amounts. This is how I cook a lot, too, and most especially in the case of my salsa. I started … [Read more...]

Mother Butter’s Popcorn and Confectionary: Best in Chicago

By Therese Mother Butter's is located in Evergreen Park, IL, which is a small, quiet suburb southwest of Chicago.  That makes sense, as the founder and original owner, Tim O'Donnell, is a Chicagoan through and through.  In fact, Tim's mother opened and ran one of the most famous Chicago pizza restaurants in Chicago, Fox's Pub, at 99th & Western in the heart of the Beverly … [Read more...]

Lotion Commotion:  Finding A Moisturizer That Works

By Felice    I think it’s safe to say I am obsessed with lotion, especially since I have dry skin.  I KNOW I need to drink more water, and I’m working on that, but in the meantime, I continue to buy and try different lotions.  It's not the worst obsession to have, really.  In my quest, I test drove a "wet skin" lotion, which means you apply the lotion--you guessed … [Read more...]

The Best and Easiest Gluten Free Chicken Pozole Rojo

By Therese   Pozole (pronounced poze-SOLE-eh) is a traditional Mexican soup that I fell in love with the moment I tried it...but just like most really good homemade dishes, this one takes time.  And it's not super healthy.  And the most authentic recipes call for pork, usually shoulder and feet.  So, traditionalists will probably curse me out (or maybe just scoff) and perhaps … [Read more...]
