Best Of – The Creative Salad

After years of occasionally eating gluten, this year marked a turning point for me. I realized that I can’t eat any — ANY! — gluten. The moment of truth happened while making playdough with our daughter; I breathed in the flour while we were mixing and got very, very sick… So, goodbye to gluten and hello to many months of feeling better!

Here are some of the yummy gluten-free recipes we shared via the blog this year. These particular recipes are the ones we make over (and over!) again, most on a weekly basis. Enjoy!

We’ve eaten so well this year! Plus, our daughter now voluntarily eats kale! Try those kale chips; I swear they are a (surprise!) hit with everyone. If our daughter loves them, I’m pretty sure you’ll like them too.

We had so much fun this past year in our everyday learning activities: exploring the natural world and helping support our three year old daughter as she gains skills and confidence in the kitchen, with reading, writing, and riding around on her scooter, dancing, photographing, making music and transforming every experience into a learning opportunity (both for her and for us!).

Here are some of the more special experiences we blogged about — just a small snippet of our homeschooling activities — over the past year that touch about our everyday learning and exploration activities.
