I’ve said it before (many times)….my kids get car sick. On any given trip, at least one will throw up. My oldest has grown out of most of it, but he still occasionally blows chunks. The two year old? It’s a regular occurrence for her. I’ve found that one hour seems to be the magic… Continue Reading

Project 365: Week 21
This week has been a lot of fun. There was a graduation, a trip to the park, two days of summer vacation, TONS of gardening and the start of Memorial Day weekend. May 20 While Nana and Papa were visiting for the week between preschool graduation and kindergarten graduation, Papa (the gardening expert) helped us… Continue Reading
Gluten Free Friday: Italian Shrimp Soup
So, I was trying to jump start my weight loss a little, as I’d hit quite the plateau since our household went gluten free (I am SO CLOSE to my 40 lb goal, y’all), so I tried the Digest Diet. It was pretty restrictive, and I’m not so good with restrictive diets. But, I did lose… Continue Reading
Project 365: Week 16
Hi! It’s been an exciting week here. I’m starting to get settled in to my new home here at gfunkified.com, and appreciate all of the support you’ve shown me already!

Adventurous Vegetable Eating
This post is sponsored by Country Crock. I was selected for this opportunity as a member of Clever Girls Collective, and the content and opinions expressed here are all my own. You know that we’ve been eating gluten free in this house since Essie’s diagnosis (which in my head, I called “glutinism” instead of “celiac”… Continue Reading

The first I made a couple of days ago. I didn’t take a picture of the finished product because I really didn’t know how… Continue Reading
Our New Normal
Everyone said that it would get easier, that it would become our “new normal”. And it has. Started to, at least. I spent a weekend making freezer meals, a morning baking. I’ve made enough meals now that I’m learning what works, and what doesn’t. We’ve taken her out to restaurants and other peoples’ homes, and… Continue Reading
Very Hungry Caterpillar Birthday Party
Thank goodness it’s Friday! For real, yo. It’s been a long week. I’ve been single-parenting it while T. works out of town since Sunday. It was also the first week back to school since Spring Break, and the first week that the kids have had to go to bed when the sun was still out.… Continue Reading

The Weight Of It All
I’m linking up with Shell for the first time this week. I’ve talked a lot about Essie’s Celiac diagnosis (if you’re sick of hearing about it…sorry.) but I haven’t really talked about how I’m feeling about it.Our Essie will be three in July. The day I got the call that she had Celiac disease, I… Continue Reading
