I love to hear of others who save ( and savor) the scraps. I too stick ripe bananas in my freezer for smoothies:)<br /><br />And thanks for wanting to know more about my story... I am actually putting a book together and it will be filled with tons of recipes and a lot more about my back story and how and why I became gluten free.<br /><br />Are you back to eating gluten after a negative biopsy? I'm sure you know that.... after being gluten free for 1 and a half years, you could easily get a negative biopsy even if you have Celiac. Regardless, I hope you are feeling well and have a happy belly.<br /><br />San Antonio is a beautiful city. I miss all the great Mexican Food and BBQ!<br /><br />xo<br />Eerin scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10504510097858204407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2205639805681286189.post-69553284200818911202012-05-19T05:35:24.922-07:002012-05-19T05:35:24.922-07:00Hi Erin, I happened upon your site by accident as ...Hi Erin, I happened upon your site by accident as I was looking for a palm sugar simple syrup and other palm recipes. I was diagnosed with Celiac when we lived in Belgium '07-'10 but when we got here to San Antonio, I had the biopsy and found out I did not actually have it. I'm sure you know that a biopsy is the only way to know for certain. I had lived a year and a half, completely gluten free so I became very knowledgeable on the subject. Now, my next door neighbour has Celiac, so I forward any recipes/sites to her (I'm also going to email her this one). <br /><br />I agree with Jenna, it would be very interesting to hear about your back story (travels, jobs, home etc). On the subject of the candies peels, my parents are Brits (I was born in NZ) and my Mum has always loved candies peels so I'm going to make and send her some (she lives in the States now). I buy mostly organic everything and I'm like you, I don't want to waste any of it. When I use organic lemons, I'll be sure to save the peels for this purpose. Here's a tip, if you don't have time to make the candied peel right away, you can freeze the peels until you're ready. I also do this with peeled bananas before they become too ripe, and use them in smoothies. No one here likes them when they become a little brown (only good for cakes/bread etc - my hub likes them a touch green and our daughter and I, like them perfectly yellow), otherwise, I'd end up throwing a lot away. When freezing, just make sure they get wrapped well and airtight or they don't seem to freeze nice enough to use. <br /><br />Anyway, even though I no longer require gluten-free, I am happy to have found your site and blog. Your photos are lovely and very magaziney!<br /><br />TTFN,<br />Debs Pouliot<br />San Antonio, Texas (for now ;-)Deborahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13531740871237262924noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2205639805681286189.post-89666689768436059672011-04-27T10:39:33.417-07:002011-04-27T10:39:33.417-07:00omg - yes! what's not to like about this? lol....omg - yes! what's not to like about this? lol. can't wait to try these!laurahttp://cookmarked.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2205639805681286189.post-30394614735822138612011-03-16T11:57:47.065-07:002011-03-16T11:57:47.065-07:00Hi,

I used Sugar in the Raw and it came out beautifully.<br /><br />They were so pretty in the dishes. So sparkley! They were gone in 20 minutes. They make lovely gifts and are fun to make. I am sure you can use tangerine or any citrus like that. I loved how some of them curled and twisted.<br /><br />PS.

I like to use less refined sugar when I can and I'd be curious to see how this recipe would work with other sugars. If you try it, please do share. I'd love to know.<br /><br />And you are so sweet to ask about trip logistics. Ah...such a long story. I never know if such details are interesting to anyone but us. I will try to share more details as the trip continues this Spring. <br /><br />Have a wonderful 2011!<br />-Eerin scotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10504510097858204407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2205639805681286189.post-73710004170598921632010-12-27T15:13:08.540-08:002010-12-27T15:13:08.540-08:00i love the sprinkles of freckles on the childrens ...i love the sprinkles of freckles on the childrens noses.....lovely candied lemon pics.greenbeenfoodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11333478016011339840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2205639805681286189.post-35554840040621259162010-12-27T13:31:28.877-08:002010-12-27T13:31:28.877-08:00This sounds lovely!

I wonder how it would be with palm sugar (I keep wanting to stay away from white sugar). <br /><br />Erin, I keep hoping you'll post a bit (somewhere) about how you worked out this amazing trip you're on -- all the logistics of school, jobs, finances, a home, a garden, etc. Any chance you'll share anything about it with us?<br /><br />Warmly,<br />JennaJenna Averyhttp://www.jennaavery.comnoreply@blogger.com
