Goodbye 2016

by . 11 Comments

Hi friends,
I am on my way to India for my niece’s wedding, so it’s going to be a bit quiet around here until after the new year. We did not expect to be going but this is the first marriage in the family on my husband’s side. Being an elder son and daughter in law, our presence was important in this joyous occasion.

So, no recipe today. But don’t worry though, I have compiled a list of 20 posts that were most viewed on my blog in 2016.

* Tricolor Cupcakes – These vanilla cupcakes with three colors are a perfect treat for any celebration. I had fun making them for my friend’s daughter!

Wish you all a very happy and fun-filled New Year and thanks for being a part of the Simpleglutenfreekitchen.

See you in 2017!

My Week Long Holiday Trip to Northern Italy – Part 2

Being married for 25 years is no small feat, so to celebrate our love and togetherness we went to Italy in October. Our trip was basically to the Northern part of Italy. We visited Venice, Florence, Genoa, and Lake Garda – which my Italian friend said was a must visit. Lake Garda is not only the largest lake in Italy, it’s a gorgeous place with lovely towns clinging to the edge and large alps all around. We stayed in Bardolino, a small town situated on the south eastern side of Lake Garda. This lovely town is known for its wine which is very fresh, delicious and sparkly.

We recently returned from a fabulous holiday in Northern Italy celebrating our 25 years of marriage. It was absolutely wonderful. Every single place we visited was memorable and gorgeous. Our holiday trip included Venice, Florence, Pisa, Genova and Lake Garda. We stayed in major touristy areas but in nice, quiet hotels for convenience of gluten free food choices. This also saved us time and money on ferry trips, trains, or taxis.

Often referred to as Sin City, Las Vegas continues to attract people from all around the world. We went to Vegas for 4 days. It was never a vacation destination for us but my friend’s family was going during spring break and my daughter wanted to go away for few days so she said, “Mom, let’s go, You will get some ideas to decorate for my dry grad party”. My husband who has been there for business conventions a few times also agreed. and, that’s how this trip was materialized.

Happy Diwali!
