Regular blog posts are coming back next week! Actually, I’m striving for weekly blog posts, starting with the Hawaiian pizza recipe that I promised forever ago, and then never got around to making.
I’m re-working my entire schedule to accommodate projects that are 100% my own, and I wanted to share the plan with all of you, so you know what to expect from me and can hold me accountable.

Other tasks as necessary
- Develop special offers for local customers and distribute via “In the Know” emails
- Update information about restaurant consultation on GoFundMe to incentivize donations from followers
- Update website with new information as locations and offerings change
- Organize more livestreaming events
- Tend to basic human tasks including laundry, cleaning, dishes, and maintaining a basic hygiene and beauty routine
- Socialize with friends who have a positive influence on my life and encourage me to always keep improving and challenging myself with ever-loftier goals
- Go to the beach occasionally to relax and recharge…or read a book, or catch up on a favorite show, or go see a movie
- Add exercise back into my life and improve my diet
I’m also working on my own side business through a service called LegalShield. Selling baked goods at the local markets doesn’t have very good profit margins, so I make enough there to buy ingredients for my next batch and to pay the fees for my next market appearance. I still have my own bills on top of that, and the markets aren’t generating enough income to meet all my needs. With LegalShield, I hope to largely fund launch of my restaurant consultation service myself.
In addition, I need to promote the link to my GoFundMe more and expand awareness of my next project and all that it entails. I’ll admit that so far, I’ve failed in hyping the program I’m developing. I need to generate interest in what’s truly possible through a restaurant consultation service and how it can grow the understanding of the local community to the needs of those with gluten intolerance and other food allergies. If I can generate that interest from end users of the service and raise the necessary funds through GoFundMe, I can launch sooner and begin bringing allergy-friendly options to partner restaurants on the Treasure Coast as soon as season ends.
I’m super-excited to be working entirely for myself again and re-focusing my attention on growing The Deglutenizer. I hope you all stick with me as I replot my course and press on into uncharted territories. I want to start blogging weekly, plus sell delicious gluten-free baked goods at area markets on weekends, and I’d love to launch my restaurant consultation service early next year. Please leave your thoughts in a comment below, or get in touch with me directly by filling out the form on the contact page.
