No Nuts. No Eggs. No Dairy. Just Delicious!

When Lori Sandler’s son Benjamin was diagnosed with severe food allergies to dairy and nuts at a young age, she decided to take action.  She had many fond memories of visiting bakeries as a child and wanted Benjamin to experience those same warm moments and treats.  And so years after tasting, testing and refining, the Divvies Bakery was born in 2005, a bakeshop dedicated to peanut free, tree nut free, milk free and egg free products.  The Divvies Bakery is located in South Salem, New York.

Now I’m blessed that none of my family members has food allergies, but despite that Divvies Bakery products are some of my favorite treats to pick up when we visit Walt Disney World.  The bakery on Main Street is where I stop to get Divvies Caramel Corn.

Well summer is all about get togethers, and this weekend many of us will be celebrating the 4th of July, and what better way then to make something patriotic to go with the celebration.

Celebrate June Dairy Month with dairy farmers all across the Midwest!  Making sure milk is wholesome and nutritious for your whole family is their #1 priority.  June Dairy Month started in 1937, as a promotion to help distribute extra milk when cows started on pasture in the warm summer months.

The warm weather is here and the long days of summer, and nothing makes friends and family smile like lemonade.  Simply put, it’s a classic — a staple of the season that everyone enjoys drinking to cool off.

This is perhaps the last cookbook you’ll ever need when hunting for a dish to take to a potluck.  Potluck Survival Guide: Care & Feeding of the Athletic Supporter, by Cherie Kimmons, has over 125, delicious and easy recipes for you to prepare to take to the next potluck you attend.

Memorial Day food doesn’t just have to comprise of potato chips and hot dogs.  Using Private Label foods, like those from Daymon Worldwide (they provide the private label brands to stores like Costco, 7Eleven, Stop & Shop, etc.) you can whip up these recipes that their head chef, Chef Kim, has created, to impress your guests, without spending a lot of money.
