One week ago, on Monday, July 13, I was at a local Starbucks here in Boulder, Colorado for an interview (I was being interviewed this time, rather than the usual vice versa). At the counter, the store had a nice little display for Valencia Orange Cakes, a gluten-free baked good! This was new… in all […]
Friday Foto: Chocolate Cake
If you’ve ever experimented with gluten-free baking, you know that the process has some inherent challenges – How do you achieve a moist, chewy texture, rather than the dry, crumbly texture common to many GF baked goods? How do you stop the center of cakes from falling, creating concave craters once they’re removed from the […]
Spreading the Gluten-Free Gospel
Today is Wednesday, July 15. Which means that I’m three short days away from my next race…the Xterra Mountain Cup at Beaver Creek. Following my last race – Xterra Buffalo Creek – I was sick for an entire week, which temporarily sidelined my post-race recovery and my training in preparation for this race. But I […]
Friday Foto: Mango-glazed Pork
Kelli and I are huge fans of sangria (red wine plus lots of added goodness), and one of the crucial ingredients in our particular version is mango. We rarely, however, use the whole mango. Such was the case recently, when we were left with about half a mango, sitting in our fridge screaming out to […]
Takin’ Care of Business
The Associated Press recently published a report about how the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) may begin regulating blogs, possibly as early as later this summer. This news has the blogosphere talking, with folks chiming in both for and against the likely development. The FTC felt compelled to make this move because of apparent conflicts on […]
Friday Foto: Cilantro Dipping Sauce
I’ll admit it now – I was utterly unprepared for this week’s Friday Foto. Last weekend, our good friends Kirk and Maury were in town visiting from Vermont. We made Mexican for dinner (an all around team effort), which left Kelli and me with a surplus of cilantro later in the week (some went into […]
Separate but Equal?
Lately the gluten-free community has been abuzz with the news that Betty Crocker has come out with a line of GF brownie, cookie and cake mixes. This after two members of the Betty Crocker family went gluten-free…one because of a Celiac diagnosis, the other because her family went GF. (Betty Crocker, it’s also worth noting, […]
Friday Foto: Mozzarella Sticks
Here’s an admission: Kelli and I are big fans of brew pubs. Or at least, we used to be. (We still are, in a sense, though it’s often exceedingly difficult for me to eat there these days…) Sometimes we’d just get a big craving for pub food – you know the drill…things like wings, chicken […]
Going the Distance: Part 4
Wellington Lake (swim leg) and Pike National Forest, site of the Xterra Buffalo Creek, 2009. Saturday morning, June 20, dawned cold and overcast. Clouds hung low over the mountains, and the air was a crisp 45 degrees as Kelli, Marin and I arrived for Xterra Buffalo Creek, my first Xterra of the 2009 race season. […]
Friday Foto: Cinnamon Rolls
Well, this is officially the latest Friday Foto I’ve ever posted. Depending on which time frame you’re in, this has the potential to be a Saturday foto! Today was a crazy day…an article deadline, Marin’s six month appointment with the pediatrician, and final preparations for the Xterra race, which starts in just a little more […]
