about the gluten-less foodie.

Thank you for stopping by my tiny corner of the blog world. My name is Annie and I live in the greatest foodie city, Chicago! I was raised in a large Irish family. Needless to say, family gatherings of food (and drink...) were a significant part of my upbringing. Which is why being diagnosed with Celiac Disease could be so frustrating. Gone were the pizza nights, spaghetti dinners and pancake breakfasts. But my passion for food and cooking never vanquished, so I continued to spend time in the kitchen with my mom. Over time, we learned together the wonders of meals sans gluten.

When I’m not in the kitchen I can be found chasing our two puppies Olive, a morkie, and Lambeau, a golden retriever, around the neighborhood, spending time with my crazy family, running, reading a food-related book or magazine, or driving my live-in photographer crazy. That photographer happens to be my husband, adoringly referred to as Josh throughout the blog. I’m one lucky gal to have him in my life.

I am a total foodie. And enjoying great meals a few times a week is important to me. However, I do value the importance of a healthy lifestyle. But healthy and gluten-free don't have to be bland and boring, thus, my desire to share fun cooking tips with you.
