Gluten Free 13.1: The SF Half Marathon
Last weekend I ran the San Francisco Half Marathon. There were more hills than I was expecting (Yes, I know we’re in SF but a runner can hope can’t she) but it was a great race and I didn’t stop for a second. The 13.1 mile course covered some amazing views and I got to

Gluten Free Honeymoon Iowa to California
After our wedding we decided to rent a car in Iowa City and drive back home to San Francisco through the Badlands, Yellowstone Park, Oregon and everywhere else in between. We gave ourselves a week to drive what added up to 3060 miles. It was a beautiful drive and we had a lot of fun

Gluten Free Spinach Chickpea Salad

Spicy Shrimp Kimchi Stir Fry
Since Korea I’m all about the kimchi. It can add flavour and spice to so many different dishes. Earlier this week John was working late and I was craving sushi but I just wasn’t in the mood for discussions on ingredients and cross contamination. I decided to pick up some shrimp from the grocery store

Kryptonite Beef Curry
John and I do a lot of experimenting with meals. I don’t think we have ever followed a recipe. We are more the ‘try it out and see what happens’ type. We tend to buy a bunch of things that we like and then choose a selection that we think would work together, adding various
