The other day was Tami's birthday, so I made her a gluten-free chocolate nut cake and even busted out the fancy spoons (from the 1920's at the latest; I think my grandmother got them for her wedding):
Amanda brought me the bestest ever little salt and pepper shakers. They perfectly match my dishes:
When I was researching wheat-free cooking I realized that wheat might actually be behind a lot of life-long problems I've had, so I'm experimenting with gluten-free food for at least a month. Baking has been fun:
German plum cake and blueberry-fig-walnut muffins
Gluten-free bread (delicious)
Banana-walnut muffinsI finally got my butt in gear and made some robot-themed baby items for Casey's brand new nephew Matteo. I have been promising Casey for months that I'd do this!
Here's my friend Steph's sweet little girl Gwen wearing a stripey dress I made for her:
And finally, here's a sweater I recently made for myself--just in time for San Francisco's one month of warm weather.

Yaaay, Robot Man flannel! I told you that I have some PJs made of that fabric, right?
Those salt and pepper shakers are indeed adorable.
I'm curious to hear how the wheat-free diet goes. I also wonder if I would benefit, digestively speaking, from eating less wheat. But then I also wonder if wheat allergy is just the trend of the moment. And then I also think of how much hassle it would be to not eat bread...so not much has happened on that score.
