About

Today is a special day in the Keuilian household, as Andrew turns 8! Can’t believe how quickly the time flies by. My snuggly little blue bundle has become a tall, strong, always-in-motion boy. And judging by the size of his feet (almost as big as mine!) he’s going to be taller than mommy…sooner than later.

I wanted to bring a birthday treat to his class, something made with wholesome ingredients, and that was gluten-free, grain-free, cane sugar-free, and (due to classmates with allergies) nut-free.

At the same time this treat needed to be something that the kids would want to eat and would enjoy. Andrew was a little worried about me making “really healthy stuff” that the other kids wouldn’t like
