Hello Reader, I had the best time hanging out with you on Tuesday at our Facebook Live. Thank you for joining me! In case you missed it, you can watch the replay here. As I mentioned, I'm in sunny California on vacation with my family. We've visited Yosemite National Park and Sequoia National Park, and today we're driving down to Los Angeles to spend the weekend with our son, who is living there this summer for an internship. Standing in front of the largest sequoia tree of them all - General...

Hello Reader, Welp, May is coming to an end, which means it’s officially a wrap on Celiac Disease Awareness Month. But while the celebrations and celiac content may be slowing down, the gluten-free lifestyle never really gives us a break. ;-) Now it’s time to look ahead to June… and I'm so excited to reveal my June Love Me Gluten Free box next week. ☀️ Please note we have only about 60 boxes left, so be sure to reserve one if you want one. They ship June 2–3. The June box features: 5 brands...

Hello Reader, Memorial Day weekend is here (in the US), which means summer is unofficially kicking off. ☀️ More travel. More BBQs. More road trips. More “let’s just grab something quick” moments. And while summer is supposed to feel fun and carefree, I also know this season can throw a lot of curveballs at those of us living gluten-free. Routines go out the window. You're eating out more. People hand you mystery burgers without buns and say, “I think it’s gluten-free?” So here are a few...

Hello Reader, Fourteen years into living with celiac disease, and somehow, this never gets easier. I’m writing you from a business conference. When I registered, they asked about food allergies, and I clearly marked mine on the form, thinking that would be enough. But once I got here? There really wasn’t food for me. I’ve been in this situation enough times to know what to do. I opened the Find Me Gluten Free app, found a nearby spot with GF options, and left the conference to get myself...

Hello Reader, Every time a new Love Me Gluten Free box goes out into the world, I get a little nervous. It’s such a strange feeling. On the one hand, I’m so proud of what I’ve created and curated… and on the other, it feels like I’m putting a piece of myself out there, wondering what everyone will think. If you’ve ever created something and shared it publicly, you probably know exactly what I mean. That said… this May box? She’s a keeper!! I leaned more savory this month after last month’s...

Hello Reader, I do my best to keep you informed on all things gluten-free… but sometimes what I have to share just plain sucks. This is one of those times. As of April 2026, Mars has updated several M&M’s products in New Zealand—including Peanut, Milk Chocolate, and Minis—to include gluten-containing ingredients (specifically barley malt extract). They’re working to spread the word, even sponsoring a post with @coeliacnewzealand to notify the community (more like… alarm everyone). For now,...

Hello Reader, Happy Friday! Did you see Shark Tank on Wednesday night? Dina Mitchell, the founder of PowerSoul Cafe, a dedicated, certified gluten-free fast-food chain in Las Vegas, pitched her business to the sharks. Spoiler incoming... skip the next few sentences if you don't want to know what happened. . . . Dina was clearly nervous during her pitch. At times, her back-and-forth with the Sharks came across as a bit argumentative, and she struggled to share the numbers they were looking...
