The lady behind this blog and cookbook is Lori Andrews, a disarming Canadian on Flickr, with her memorable moniker, The 10 Cent Designer. Andrews is an interior designer with flair, a sock monkey-maker with a love of whimsy, and a lover of the outdoors. She also enjoys eating well and has put together a beautifully-photographed gluten-free cookbook that's on our wish list (please Santa?) and no doubt many others.
There are less whimsical reasons behind Andrews' diet, as she explains on her blog: "I lived with IBS and migraines for years. Fed up with my doctor's prescription pad, I decided to take my health into my own hands. I have adopted a gluten-free, caffeine free, refined sugar-free, healthy diet. Gluten free for the migraines and bad stuff free for the IBS. I want to share my fav recipes and products with you. We purchase organic vegetables, oils, spices, fruits, berries, nuts, etc., and grass-fed red meat. I don't get migraines anymore. This is a bacon-free blog."
See? Told you she is charming.
