Hi I'm Allison - welcome to our everyday! Here you'll find inspiration, DIY projects, favorite products, and gluten free recipes that help put a smile into my everyday.
Why is it that when you start work on one project you immediatly start thinking of another?
We have a fairly small kitchen space so I'm thinking light and airy with maybe a white subway tile backsplash, dark counters.

I tried out a gluten free angel food cake (the first time I've made any type of angel food cake) and it turned out wonderfully. Perfect texture, flavor, weight etc. So, so good. It's also dairy free (but not egg free)
It's hard to tell this is gluten free at all - same texture and flavor as it's gluten-full twin. I used the exact recipe from Taste of Home found HERE. I did use Thai rice flour which tends to be a bit lighter than regular rice flour.
And my boy's favorite gluten free find of the year - Trader Joe's Gluten Free Joe Joe's!
The texture is wonderful and they taste so good! I've never had the regular ones so I can't comment on the similarity so if you have, and try these, I'd love to know how they compare! They are gluten, dairy, and nut free (although processed on shared equipment with dairy and nuts). Thanks to my Mother in Law for finding these for us. We were there a week or so ago and these hadn't come in yet!
Recipes, dessert, gluten free, products | in Dessert, Gluten Free, Products, Recipes I love changing my desktop wallpaper each month. I've had this gorgeous blue watercolor from Design Love Fest for a while now
and while I am still in love with this one I couldn't resist this new June wallpaper from Grown-up Shoes (I picked the white one)
Montezuma Well from National Park Service: "Formed long ago by the collapse of a limestone cavern, over one million gallons of water a day flows continuously into the Well. This constant supply of warm, fresh water provides an aquatic habitat like no other in the world, and has served as an oasis for wildlife and humans for thousands of years."
We had every intention of visiting Bearizona while we were in Williams last weekend but we ended up needing to get home so we started back down to Phoenix after lunch. On a whim we decided to stop at Montezuma Well on the way. It was a quick visit but the park there was gorgeous so if you get a chance to go bring a picnic!
Here's the photo story of our visit
We love to travel so when traveling out of state isn't possible we try to visit different locations around AZ (I was born and raised here). We drove up to Williams, AZ on Saturday for the Memorial Day parade. My grandparents live in Williams and family has a couple restaurants there - Pancho McGillicuddy's and Station 66 Italian Bistro.
There's just something about a small town parade, boys riding their bikes to watch the parade in their baseball uniforms, waving and calling out to people in the parade by first name...
The boys love going up there! Something about Route 66, vintage cars and a small town. We'll be back Williams.
