Our Story

In November 1999, two 17 year olds met in high school and fell in love. We spent much time (video and board) gaming together. After 5.5 years of dating, we got married, and kept playing games. In August 2006 our first daughter was born. Everything was and is hunky dory. We introduced this daughter to games early, she loves them already. In March 2010 we welcomed our second daughter, just as cute and as fun as the first. In September 2010 we started the normal introduction of solid food at 6 months. Immediately we noticed that something was not right. Rashes all over, eye rubbing, more interrupted sleep. Since she had only been introduced to a handful of foods, we were pretty sure we know the culprits. After consultation with a MD and naturopath, we have our daughter on a gluten and dairy free diet. Her rashes are almost gone, she doesn't rub her eyes. Her sleep is very slowly improving.

The introduction of a gluten free diet meant using other flours for baking. Voila, we discovered that mom can't handle corn. So no corn meal, corn starch, corn flour. One replacement grain out the window. So we adapt, we learn, and we keep enjoying games.

Here you will find the recipes I try and like, and comments on games and gaming when we feel like it.
