Last weekend I order a dozen gluten-free cupcakes from Gigi’s Cupcakes in Sandy Springs. It was exciting to find fully-decorated, main-stream cupcakes at a local shop so readily available. They were not cheap, $35.31, but well worth the time saved.

These cupcakes were beautifully decorated and were a big hit at the party. Several of my friends and family are also gluten-free and it was fantastic to be able to serve something that I didn’t have to bake.

Gigi’s has gluten-free cupcakes for sale daily, but I’m not sure I can justify the sugar intake on a regular basis. However, I am looking forward to the next occasion and excuse to buy more.

I am a huge, HUGE fan of pasta. That being said, I’ve been on a quest to find an acceptable gluten-free pasta. I will buy and try just about any brand and style labeled gluten-free.

Not to long ago my dearest Jewel attended SXSW and got the idea that she would start a blog. And by she I mean that she would start one and drag her ever faithful friend Sue in on the action.

It took convincing for me to join the masses exposing their random thoughts over the interwebz. I’m still not sure there’s a market for yet another humble yet talented, self-taught web designer expressing an opinion about sucky clients  and the plague of horribly designed websites. Those topics have been covered pretty well, I think. (more…)

This is a very exciting moment. The start of something wonderful.

So raise a glass, pint, flask, or whatever your preferred drinking vessel should happen to be and join us in toasting the birth of our little blog.
