I took a little break while adjusting to some new and exciting changes in life, but I still had time to make us some gluten free yumminess.
Have you seen Beddy’s?!? They’re the fantastic one-piece bedding unit that makes it a BREEZE to make the bed. Kids roll out of their bed and zip it up for the day. They are also lined with a soft minky fabric that makes nighttimes nice and snuggly. They’re also a great way to keep the covers from coming off of little ones during the night.
We’ve probably all seen the “Nailed It!” meme online with a gorgeous cupcake on the left,
and a sad, dismembered baked item, the “after” on the right.
We all have them, like adult acne or spinach in our teeth, a failure in the creative world is bound to happen.
In her new book “CraftFail: When Handmade Goes Horribly Wrong” Heather Mann gives us a peek into what
has kept her crafting, writing and making her way to a successful, enjoyable career.
“Throughout the years, I have posted craftfails of my own and those shared by other crafters, and I have
become a full-on failure enthusiast. If finally learned what never got through to me as a failure-phobic kid:
We learn a heck of a lot more by failing than we ever will by succeeding on the first try.”
Heather’s words really ring true with me. I started creating and making probably 35+ years ago (holy crap

<p>These are easy y’all, hardly even a recipe but check out how they turned out, and yep, they tasted AMAZING!</p>
<p>I have tried probably every gluten free bread, gluten free flour, and pretty much gluten free everything on the market, and these are wonderful. I was curious to see if they would hold up when rolling them tightly with the shredded chicken in them. And when I used a wooden skewer to secure them along the bottom. And when I fried them. Yes to all, and they were heavenly. <a href="http://www.twelveoeightblog.com/2015/03/gluten-free-chicken-flautas-2.html#more-2825" class="more-link">[Read more…]</a></p>
