Night before band camp = meal prep mode

Salads, protein shakes, snacks portioned out, lunches ready to grab and go. Nothing fancy, just making sure my girl has what she needs.

Here's something most people don't always realize about me — I don't just *understand* food allergies and sensitivities because I bake gluten-free for a living. I live it as a mom too. I know what it's like to lay everything out the night before because mornings are chaos and there's no room for "we'll figure it out." I know the mental math of making sure she has enough, that it's safe, and that if everyone else is passing around treats at camp, she's not the one left out or left watching.

It's a constant thing. You don't clock out of it. You just get really good at prepping ahead so she never has to feel different or forgotten.

So tonight it's lettuce, protein shakes, and containers lined up on the counter. Tomorrow she walks into camp with a full lunch and one less thing to worry about.

This is the quiet part of it nobody sees. But it's why I do what I do — for her, and for every kid and family living this same reality. 💚

Who’s ready for some gluten-free sourdough?! 🙋‍♀️

Because look at this spread you guys. Cinnamon rolls, pretzel bites, English muffins, hamburger buns, sourdough loaves — this is what almost 24 hours of proofing and rising and me barely sleeping looks like lol. Worth it though.

100% gluten-free, 100% dairy-free, made in my dedicated kitchen so if you’ve been burned before — you’re safe here.

Come grab some while it’s fresh!

POV: it's 4:34am and the cinnamon rolls said "not yet" 😂

Let's be real — I didn't "sleep" last night. I napped. In between proofs and rises, like some kind of feral bread goblin.

Here's the thing about gluten-free sourdough: it's finicky. Not "instant yeast" levels of finicky (I will die on this hill — I HATE working with that stuff), but it takes TIME. Y'all have heard me talk about the sourdough loaves taking 2 days... well guess what, the pretzels, English muffins, bagels? Not that different. Same slow, patient process.

No discard. No shortcuts. No instant yeast. Just active starter and natural fermentation, the traditional way — because that's the standard I hold myself to. I want what you grab off the porch stand or at market to be as fresh as humanly possible, and sometimes that means giving up a full night's sleep the day before an event.

So last night was cinnamon rolls and pretzel bites as the last things to proof, and me setting timers every couple hours. If it's a quick nap I just crash in my recliner. If I know I've got 2+ hours, I actually go sleep in my office — because I refuse to wake my poor husband up every time a timer goes off. The man has a job to go to 😅

This is the part nobody sees. The fridge stacked with trays. The 4am glasses-on-crooked selfie. The yawns. But then y'all's reaction when you bite into something still that fresh? Worth every bit of it.

Round one: not burnt. We’re calling that a win. 🙌

Not gonna lie — the last couple weeks have been rough. I’ve been fighting an illness that had me falling asleep mid-bake (yep, burnt a batch clean through), and getting loaves out at all felt like a small miracle some days.

But this batch? Beautiful. Round one is done and gorgeous, and there’s a whole second round still coming. I’m not 100% yet, but I’m getting bits of energy back and easing into a normal baking routine again this week — and honestly, it feels really good.

So this Thursday and Friday, I’m loading up the porch stand and market table after two lighter weeks. If you’ve been patiently waiting on your favorites, thank you for sticking with me — I see you, and I’m so glad to be back at it.

Here’s the thing nobody tells you about real sourdough: it’s not a recipe, it’s a schedule. Feed the starter tonight. Mix the dough tomorrow morning. Let it slow-pre- ferment for 8-12 hours. Shape it. Proof it again. THEN bake it.

By the time you’re eating a loaf, I’ve touched it about six times over two days.

Late night starter check.

It’s almost midnight and I just fed my starter for tomorrow’s bake. Again.

I could speed all of this up. Cut the ferment time, add some shortcuts, get more loaves out faster. A lot of “gluten-free” bread does exactly that — and you can taste it (and honestly, your gut can tell too).

But slow is what makes it actually work for you. It’s what makes it digestible, what gives it that real bread texture instead of that sad gluten-free brick thing we all know too well, and it’s what means I can look you in the eye and say this is safe for your body.

So yeah — it’s midnight and I’m feeding a jar of flour and water like it’s a pet. It even has a name. Patty is the mother and Breaderick the third Is the soon That’s the job. And it’s why tomorrow’s loaves are worth the wait.
