Sharing Gluten Free Recipes

So I was recently told that I haven't been sharing my gluten free recipes.  :(

My bad.

I basically use my recipes but substitute gluten free flour when my recipes calls for flour.  I have found that King Arthur's Gluten Free All-purpose Flour works well cup for cup.  I think my favorite GF All-purpose flour is in a Blue Bag called Dakota.  I find this one at a local Country Nutrition Store.

Jackie, from Blessings Overflowing, is friend of mine that has been cooking allergy free for her son.  You can't go wrong with her recipes.  (If you do not have egg or dairy allergy, you may use your 'normal' ingredients.)  I have tried a lot of her recipes and we enjoy the Chocolate Pumpkin Cake and the Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars.

I also get recipe ideas from Make it and Love it.  She is also a gluten free cook.

Want a recipe for your crockpot?  No problem!  Here is a site where I look:  A Year of Slow Cooking.  She even tells you what/how to make it gluten free.  I think I will be trying this Gluten Free Oreo Cheesecake Slow Cooker Recipe next...yum!

I will try to post actual recipes that I use.  I guess that means that could be a New Year Resolution for me in 2014.

Elf on the Shelf Story with Stickers

So we have an Elf.  He has been with us for 7 yrs now...

He is a good Elf, no mischief from him.  :)

He usually likes to hid and listen to the kids.  These kids for the most part are good kids...always on the nice list.

Our Elf, Percy, knows that we have been working on storytelling in Homeschool.  So he decided to help us out...

One night he left for the kids a pack of stickers and he started a story for the kids using the story.  He encouraged the kids to add on to his story.  The kids looked through the sticker pack to get ideas.

The Elf's story started with 2 penguins that wanted to go sledding...  :)
