Gluten Free Mom

Gluten Free Bread baking at Da Vinci Bakery, Greenwood

I have a hundred things to write about - I've been trying the new Betty Crocker mixes, went to a baking class with Jules and tried her gluten free baking mix, sampling new restaurants.  But as the title notes, I am also a "Mom" and for the summer that is times three.

So between the "Mom can you drive me to tennis camp?"

"Mom I am hungry."

"Mom can you pump up my bike tire?"

"Mom can Gianna spend the night?"

"Mom will you play cards with me?"

"Mom can you braid my hair?"

"Mom Alex just crashed on her skateboard (only a small fracture thankfully)"

Well, there just has not been much time to sit down and compose a blog post.

I wanted to briefly let you know that Kalli at Da Vinci Bakery is organizing a gluten free bread baking class for this Monday, July 13th, at 6:00 pm. The class will be held at her bakery at  10003 Greenwood Ave N, Seattle - (206) 782-5735.  You can call Kalli to register or email her at wheatlessinseattle@yahoo.com I believe the class is $25 and limited to 10 individuals.

If you have not tried her bread, it is wonderful!!!!!   Actually, everything Kalli bakes is delicious.   I can't wait to learn her secrets. 

Da Vinci Gluten Free Bakery in Seattle

What do you do on a rainy afternoon in Seattle with three kids when the ski season is basically over and you don't feel like a movie?? 

Head to your favorite Gluten Free Bakery for a cup of coffee and some treats. 

In Seattle, this has to be Da Vinci Cafe and Bakery.

Da Vinci is located at 10003 Greenwood Ave N, Seattle (206) 782-5735. 

It was the very first completely gluten free bakery in Seattle.  Kaili is the owner and chef, and she can cook some great treats. 

I mean the baked items here tastes as good (if not better) as any glutinous bakery.

I indulged in the Apple Strudel (which is also dairy free) - the best baked treat I have had in a while -how does she get the crust so flaky??

The kids had pizza and a Double Chocolate Mouse Brownie and cupcakes.

Da Vinci's is where we started our gluten free life.  The first Saturday of our new gluten free life we went to Da Vinci's for bread.  We were greeted by Kaili then, the same way we were today.

A really special thanks goes out to Kaili for working so hard to make such great treats for those of us on the gluten free diet.
