We’ve all been there: you’ve just had a long day at work, you’re tired, you want to sit down with a drink and relax. Maybe you want to have some wine and read a book, or sit out on your porch with a beer and watch the fireflies, or sip on a cocktail before you have to figure out dinner.

Guest Post by Jen Fitzpatrick With so many gluten-free pasta brands on the market today, how do you know which gluten-free pasta is best? The answer: A lot of trial and error over the last decade with Celiac disease. Since pasta is such a popular dinner item in American families, it's bound to be something you look for an adequate replacement to after a Celiac disease diagnosis. And I was no different. But what I quickly learned about the pasta available back was that there were two options: rice or corn. It sort of made me hate pasta for a while, as nothing ever tasted like I hoped!

The staff on cruises are extraordinarily service-oriented, and the chefs are very knowledgeable about their food and menus. I've never been sick on any cruises I've taken, and I eat more food on a cr ..read more

We usually think of camping in the summertime, but camping in the fall can be even better! With fewer crowds, cooler weather, and the changing fall leaves, you can't go wrong with getting to sleep outdoors in the fall when you're camping. Like other travel plans, you'll need to strategize your food. What kind of food will you eat? How much will you have to make ahead of time before you go camping?
