Jules Gluten Free ~ a Freebie!

Each year people with food allergies & sensitivities head into the holidays knowing there is so much they can't enjoy. Can you imagine not being able to eat the Turkey because the seasonings may have Gluten cross-contamination? Or a table full of snacks & treats that you can't have because they are full of flour and other gluten containing ingredients.

Jules Gluten Free has your bases covered! Last year they offered a Thanksgiving eBook that you could use when planning your menu for the holidays. It came in so handy for preparing for guests who have various food sensitivites - it helped to know what was safe and where you needed to make substitutions.

This year Jules is offering the Holiday eBook to Holiday Traditions readers FREE! All you need to do is add it to your shopping cart and use the coupon code happy2011 when you check out.

You can bake confidently with 14 yummy recipes safe for most people with gluten sensitivities like Celiac. You'll get recipes like:

• Cinnamon Sticky Rolls (w/ step-by-step instructions)
• Cranberry-Orange Bread 
• Challah
• Spiced Chai Teacakes
• Gingerbread House (w/ house building instructions)
• Sugar Cookies
• Christmas Rum Cake
• and more...

Be sure to stay tuned NEXT WEEK for another special offer from Jules Gluten Free just for Holiday Traditions readers! In the mean time, order your FREE eBook (a $9.99 value) and start making your list (hint, hint) for ingredients you'll need. Also, be sure to check out the other eBooks - they would make a great Christmas, Hanukkah or Birthday gift!

Winter Rosy Wool Wreath

I love Winter decorations that can stay up until Valentine's Day.  They are more versatile, fit several decor styles and can go up the day after Thanksgiving and stay up until February.  Creative Passage has posted a delightful wreath that you and your kids can make for teachers, grandparents, friends of the family - anyone will love it. And it's versatile enough for Christmas, Hanukkah or just for Winter. I asked Ellen if she would make up a tutorial for my readers and she has kindly agreed to share it with us.  I'm going to post a picture and the supplies needed and then you can go to her blog for the instructions.  

(Isn't it darling?)

Felted Wool Rose Wreath Tutorial

Hot Glue Gun & Glue Sticks

Scissors

Circle Patterns (she used bowls)

Wool or Regular Felt

Marking Pen

Grapevine Wreath

Shiny or Fuzzy Snowflakes from

The Dollar Tree (get 'em cheap)

This would be a great family activity.  The older kids can help make the roses and the little ones can help put everything together.  They can hand you the supplies as you need them - obviously the glue gun is to dangerous for them.  Enjoy - I'd love to see your finished projects!
