I know this one used to be a favourite for many... it's now up on the new site for you to enjoy!

Helloooo! I've had a 3 year absence, but have some exciting news for you- MY WEBSITE IS BACK ONLINE! I neglected it for too long and someone stole my domain, so there's been a slight domain change ( .au on the end) and it all looks brand new as I have had to painstakingly copy and paste everything over to a new site. It's taking much longer than I hoped and not all the recipes are up yet, but I thought I may as well tell you that some of it is there! I doubt that I'll be posting here much, but for those that have been asking, I hope you enjoy having access to my recipes again. It's been a labour of love. Tell me what you think!! www.foodgloriousfriendlyfood.com.au

Hey friendly foodies! I've been getting quite a few new likes on the page lately... where are you all coming from?? It's great to have you along!
Just FYI, I don't do much on this page any more as I'm focusing more on my photography (Photography by Karen Stevenson) than food blogging, but my website is full of great recipes that I still use all the time myself, and you can still buy my book here: http://www.foodgloriousfriendlyfood.com/the-book-friendly-food-for-chocoholics.html
and check out the food coaching I offer here: http://www.foodgloriousfriendlyfood.com/friendly-food-coaching.html
Happy exploring!!

I have heard this before- Alzheimers being referred to as 'Diabetes Type 3', but here's a new study to add weight to the argument. Gotta get rid of that sugar, friends!

Researchers have discovered a possible new treatment for Alzheimer’s disease after noticing the way in which insulin signaling works in the brains and pancreas of diabetic patients.

About 6 years ago we began our journey to change our diet and improve our health. For us, 'Friendly Food' is mostly gluten free, dairy free, refined sugar free, with as little additives and preservatives as possible.
When we changed our lifestyle I was determined that we would still enjoy ALL of our food. So, I went searching! It's taken hours of research and experimenting, but I now have an amazing collection of recipes that taste great, that everyone enjoys, that the kids love to help prepare and that keep us healthy. I keep experimenting so things don't get too boring, and you'll find my musings about this on my blog pages.

The discovery could have profound implications for diseases from autism to Alzheimer's to multiple sc...
