Holiday Food Sampling Gluten Free Grocery 2009
Last Saturday, Becky and I loaded the “big ride” filled with delicious gluten free and dairy free Holiday pies for a wonderful Holiday sampling at the Gluten Free Grocery(http://gfgrocery.com/) in Westchester, IL. We had a blast! Meet Cindy Erwin, proprietor, of the Gluten Free Grocery. She has a really cool shop and wonderful customers. Apple’s Bakery is so proud to be a Holiday partner with Cindy and her customers. Several have pre-ordered Holiday desserts. Thank you to all for the supportive comments for our work in the gluten free community. We wish you the safest and most enjoyable Thanksgiving with family and friends.
Mary and Becky

Mary -
While at the small food manufacturer’s conference (http://www.fpc.unl.edu/nsfmc/) in Lincoln, Nebraska, you were kind enough to give me samples of two of your gluten free cookies. I just wanted to say thank you, and that they were absolutely delicious! I’m relatively new to being gluten free, and needless to say up to this point hadn’t been impressed with the few cookies and snacks I’d sampled. The first I tried was the Old-Fashioned molasses, and I was in awe. Thank you so much for sharing those with me, I’ll be making a trip to your website soon to see the other varieties you have as well.

When I first started dining at “the man’s” in the winter. He started a tradition of always eating dinner by candelight. Which I find delightful…
Something about that slows the pace and makes the meal more intimate. As if you are some how transported from your home to some where else. Often we only use candles on holidays. But why not live it up! Try it and slow down your week…relax breathe and enjoy! Make a special night to just relax and enjoy the meal. If you set the table the night before chances are as you see it before you go to work you will think…ahhh tonight we are having a candle lit dinner. Even if it is take out or an elegant meal stop and savor, unplug the phone, turn off the blackberry and the television. Enjoy and be in the moment….

Recently I decided to use some of the many sets of linen I inherited as part of our daily meals. I was tired of paper towels and paper napkins.
So I went through the many sets and decided on the ones we would use….a light pale green with a morning glory flower embossed on them. When I first laid them the lunch table…” the man” said what are these? I said linen we are no longer using paper. “Nice” he said…we talked about the design. We now use them every day…sometimes we save things for ” special occasions” or “best” or “company” well every day is a special occasion if you choose to make it one. Every meal can be a “special occasion” as human nature to responds to beauty. Ask yourself what can you do to make this week’s meals a bit more special, elegant or relaxed. Food and a beautiful table is best shared…even if you are sharing that beauty with yourself!
