We eat gluten free + dairy free in our house.. I used to use strictly g free cookbooks but then realized you can modify any regular recipe to be g free just by using the ingredients you have on hand when you do eat this way :) Pinterest is of course an amazing resource for recipes too and I thought I'd share a few that have been hits around here!</div>

<a href="http://www.bakedbyrachel.com/2013/12/bacon-basil-pesto-and-chicken-pizza/"><span style="color: #d5a6bd;">Bacon-basil pesto and chicken pizza</span></a> was delicious! I used Udi's thin crust pizza shells.. I swear they have made me love pizza again! While we're talking pizza, these are not to be missed either!<span style="color: #d5a6bd;"> <a href="http://www.insockmonkeyslippers.com/potato-prosciutto-arugula-pizza-with-dijon-vinaigrette"><span style="color: #d5a6bd;">Potato Prosciutto and Arugula Pizza with dijon vinaigrette</span></a></span>.. and <a href="http://www.foodiewithfamily.com/2013/12/17/honey-drizzled-salami-pizza/"><span style="color: #d5a6bd;">Honey drizzled salami pizza</span></a>.. amazing!<br />
<br />
Sometimes a hearty salad is the perfect thing for dinner and this is unreal. I've subbed out the orange peppers for cucumber and pepperoncini's in this <a href="http://www.thegardengrazer.com/2013/04/southwestern-chopped-salad-with.html"><span style="color: #d5a6bd;">Southwestern chopped salad with cilantro dressing</span></a> and I think I like it even better that way! This <a href="http://www.insockmonkeyslippers.com/heirloom-tomato-bacon-summer-salad"><span style="color: #d5a6bd;">heirloom bacon and tomato summer salad</span></a> is another winner and the leftovers are amazing ( well for both of these salads! ) the next day. This one I like to use as a side. This is an amazing dressing though it takes a little work, <a href="http://www.anediblemosaic.com/?p=5856"><span style="color: #d5a6bd;">Best Dressing</span></a>. If you like just a regular garden salad, this <a href="http://www.food.com/recipe/sheilas-best-balsamic-dressing-176016"><span style="color: #d5a6bd;">Balsamic dressing</span></a> is a MUST!<br />
<br />
This <a href="http://glutenfreemom.com/gluten_free_recipes/pasta_dishes/lasagna/#.Ut8Z32Tn9z8"><span style="color: #d5a6bd;">gluten free lasagna</span></a> is the BEST thing I have ever tasted! I switch out all the dairy products for soy cheese and instead of ricotta I mix nutri whip and cream cheese in, in it's place. Good god it's heaven on earth :)<br />
<br />
Hope you find some dinner inspiration! I'll post more favorites soon! XO<br />

I have so many things to blog about I get overwhelmed and don't blog at all. Ugh.<br />
<br />
Food posts, decor posts, fashion pieces I'm loving.. ahh we're going to start with a little decorating!<br />
<br />
I'm finishing our bonus room.. it's a room that I've struggled with since we moved in. I never knew how to decorate it.. it wasn't a living room, wasn't a play room.. it has no identity. THEN I found this..<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dVaGqYFIHYI/UtXxv95h3vI/AAAAAAAAUls/yqO5_-y0Y1w/s1600/103013_bnr_playroom_sleepingbags.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="221" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-dVaGqYFIHYI/UtXxv95h3vI/AAAAAAAAUls/yqO5_-y0Y1w/s400/103013_bnr_playroom_sleepingbags.jpeg" width="400" /></a></div>
and knew it was exactly how I wanted the room to feel. The girls spend all of their time there..
I'm going to use <a href="http://www.uwdecals.com/"><span style="color: #d5a6bd;">URBAN WALLS</span></a> for the walls to add some charm and I'm trying so hard to narrow down what I want to use.. I like hearts, dots, plus signs..I'll keep them really pale and tonal with the walls but I think they'll be super cool!<br />
<br />
I love the leopard sleeping bags, and we'll cut out some paper stars to pin up.. pillows in all shades of beige and cream and I want to add some kind of a tent or something..I'm thinking about this <a href="http://www.rhbabyandchild.com/catalog/product/product.jsp?productId=rhbc_prod405377&categoryId=rhbc_cat353019"><span style="color: #d5a6bd;">canopy</span></a>, it's a little whimsical and I love that, but it feels a little too stark white, I don't know where I'm at on it!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ZK_YP_IfxEc/UtX05-9UofI/AAAAAAAAUl0/o6km3f4w-IY/s1600/rhbc_prod405377.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="388" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-ZK_YP_IfxEc/UtX05-9UofI/AAAAAAAAUl0/o6km3f4w-IY/s400/rhbc_prod405377.jpeg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
and these little <a href="http://www.rhbabyandchild.com/catalog/product/product.jsp?productId=rhbc_prod406651&categoryId=rhbc_cat377265"><span style="color: #d5a6bd;">poufs</span></a>?! So cute!<br />

As we continue to settle and see how we are using spaces things are getting moved around and placed in different spots. In the front foyer I used to have my bottle collection on a big empty wall..<br />

<br />
So for that big empty wall I've ordered this.. I've loved it for ever but didn't think I had anywhere for it!<br />
<br />
( <a href="http://www.restorationhardware.com/catalog/product/product.jsp?productId=prod2420217&categoryId=cat1970012"><span style="color: #d5a6bd;">french casement cabinet</span></a>, 20% off right now! )<br />
<br />

<br />
and in the living room where I've had a makeshift little ottoman.. I ordered this-<br />
<br />
(<a href="http://www.restorationhardware.com/catalog/product/product.jsp?productId=prod1679322&categoryId=search"><span style="color: #d5a6bd;"> tufted coffee ottoman</span></a>, also 20% off! )<br />

design philosophy | providing a foundation to grow and alter through the years, I keep the core basic and layer in the current, creating a room that is innately yours.
