Recipe: Independence Day Treats 2026
Independence Day treats 2026 – these sweet snacks are delicious! We made a version of these for Canada Day, too, and they were oh, so good. These are made with gluten free crackers, so dig in.

Travel: 7 Days in Cambridge
7 days in Cambridge, England – yes, worth the trip! Plus, the company was the best around. It’s not very often we spend a whole week in such a seemingly small place, yet we had a good reason (nerd alert!). We saw sights, art, walked a lot, and even took in a garden and an art house. Plus, we did some studying. Oh, and the eats. Some good food, that’s for sure. Okay, let’s checkout what we did in 7 days! 7 Days in Cambridge…

Travel: Kettle Yard House

Kettle Yard House First up, you’ll most likely need to buy tickets ahead of time online and reserve a time slot. They only let people into the house at certain intervals and give you…

Travel: Artists for Kettle Yard
The Artists for Kettle Yard is a for-purchase art gallery down the road from Fitzwilliam College. The art, of course, changes, so if you check it out one week, you might be surprised the next season that things have changed. We walked by about a handful of times before it was the right time to pop in. And we’re super happy we did. Okay, let’s check it out. Artists at Kettle Yard First up, it’s free. The House isn’t (more on that soon), yet the…

Travel: Cambridge Eats
Cambridge eats – that’s right, all the places we ate at while visiting Cambridge in the UK. From Indian food to Venezuelan food, this city is packed with awesome eats. Okay, first, I’ll share the list of places, since I didn’t get to snag photos of everything (I know, right?!). Oh, and being gluten free was super easy except for one spot where we went for Korean food. They still had options, just not many. Happy eating. Cambridge Eats Okay, there’s your list – for…

Travel: Cambridge University Botanical Gardens
The Cambridge University Botanical Garden is worth checking out for sure, especially if you’re into plants. We have more than 100 plants in our house – yes, I know! It’s awesome. My favourite plant is this air plant we have, and it keeps having offspring; we’re up to about 35 of them at least. The grandpa, as I call him, is tired and old, yet he’s still kicking. Okay, if you’re in the Cambridge area, visit the garden. It’s free for Cambridge students, yet it’s…
