Grocery Delivery in Hawaii – When You Just Need Groceries After A 2am Flight

Deanna — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 23:18:05 +0000

As I noted a couple weeks ago, I have planned a trip to Hawaii during the two weeks of the Vancouver 2010 Olympics. Aside from getting away from the grid-locked traffic, the excessive tourists, and the basic hectic insaneness that comes along with the Olympics, I feel @nachoman and I deserve some time off. We [...]

Finding A Vacation during the Olympics to O’ahu-Hawai’i (With A Kitchen)

Deanna — Sun, 24 Jan 2010 03:44:57 +0000

Oahu is the third largest of the Hawaiian islands, and known as being one of the busiest vacation spots. I personally prefer Kaua’i for its lush tropical greenery and quiet solitude, but when planning a vacation on a budget I can’t be too picky. Finding a decently priced vacation with flight and accommodations included can [...]

Martha Stewart Baking Handbook – Blueberry Muffins Recipe (Revised into Pumpkin Oatmeal Muffins)

Deanna — Mon, 11 Jan 2010 19:00:36 +0000

Round 2: Wheat-free Muffins The next project in the Martha Stewart Baking Handbook that I thought I would attempt would be muffins. The pictures in the book and the recipe seemed fairly straight forward, and I figured it would be a good recipe to try to adapt to a wheat-free recipe. The recipe is Blueberry [...]

Martha Stewart Baking Handbook – Chocolate-Glazed Gingerbread Cake Recipe

Deanna — Sun, 10 Jan 2010 20:28:13 +0000

Round 1: Wheat-free, Chocolate-free, & Healthier Version of Martha Stewart Baking The first recipe I tested out in the Martha Stewart was the Chocolate-Glazed Gingerbread Cakes (found on page 191). While the recipe seems straight forward I had to reassess how I would tackle it in a wheat-free and chocolate-free way. As noted in my [...]

Deanna — Fri, 08 Jan 2010 23:02:56 +0000

A few weeks ago I mentioned that I was going to be trying out different recipes from Martha Stewart’s Baking Handbook. Well, after substituting wheat flour for rice flour in a few recipes, I realized that a majority of the recipes in the cookbook are able to be wheat-free and yummy at the same time! [...]

Christmas (Wheat-free) Baking Project Experiment: With Martha Stewart’s Baking Handbook

Deanna — Tue, 15 Dec 2009 21:15:20 +0000

The Christmas season is here, and I have nearly finished marking final exams, and I have no experiments or major research to do over the holidays. Therefore it is time to do my own experiments at home, and buy some baking cookbooks and make use of my oven and baking supplies. My baking cupboards are full [...]

Healthy Beverages & How I Miss Soft-Drinks

Deanna — Mon, 21 Sep 2009 01:05:12 +0000

With the start of the school year, I have realized that vending machines suck! Simply, there is nothing good to buy from a vending machine, especially if you are looking for a beverage. Even the water is made by a soft drink manufacturer. I have been up on campus, and have found coffee shops a [...]

Dining Out Wheat-free & Stomach Problems – Why does that mean I pay more for my meal?

Deanna — Tue, 01 Sep 2009 22:40:01 +0000

As many people know, my stomach and I are never really on the same page. I have gone most of my life having my stomach get angry at me for pretty much everything; from wheat, to meat to even water. Yes, you heard me, water – be it cold or warm, it gives my stomach [...]
