Hello Reader,

Fall is so close I can taste it. 🍂

The mornings here in Denver are darker and cooler. I had to wear a long-sleeve shirt to walk my dog this morning, something I haven't done since May!

The cooler weather only means one thing: Pumpkin season is here!

Below, I share my first pumpkin recipe of the season (there will be more), but before I do that, I want to share a few important updates.

Please be sure to scroll this entire email. It's a quick read. Thank you!

September Box Reveal

If you follow me on social media, you probably saw the big reveal of my September Love Me Gluten Free box.

Love Me Gluten Free is my dedicated gluten-free subscription box that lets you sample exciting new gluten-free goodies each month.

Every box is curated under a special theme, and the theme of my September box was Women Power. It featured products from women-founded or women-run businesses.

I revealed the box's contents on Facebook Live last week. I had a lot of fun chatting with you live!

I'm also hosting my September box GIVEAWAY on Instagram (along with a box reveal) - so check it out.

And I share a list of all the brands featured + exclusive coupon codes I negotiate for our community in this blog post.

Over the next few weeks, I'll spotlight some brands inside the box. Let's show the brands that LOVE us some love in return!

Fruit Bliss was founded by Susan Leone, who discovered a method of rehydrating dried fruit during her travels.

All Fruit Bliss products are certified gluten-free and contain just two ingredients - fruit and water. The figs and apricots are particularly tasty!

I'm particularly fond of this wonderful protein pancake mix called Patty Cakes, which will fuel your mornings with a delicious, nutrient-dense treat. It contains 23 grams of potato protein per serving!

Jessica's Natural Foods was created by Jessica Mindell. The company makes addictive oat-based granolas in flavors like Chocolate Hazelnut, Vanilla Maple, and Cherry & Berry.

Jessica's granolas are great for snacking or jazzing up yogurt or ice cream. And I recently spotted them at Target.

Pumpkin Recipe of the Season #1

I've created many pumpkin recipes over the years, but this is my #1 pumpkin recipe; it's the one I get the most compliments on and the one that gets the most traffic on my website.

The recipe is for my Gluten-Free Pumpkin Squares with Cream Cheese Frosting.

If this doesn't get you craving pumpkin spice, I don't know what will!

PS: Did you know that pumpkin spice lattes are already available at Starbucks. I tested the Starbucks PSL for hidden gluten last year - check it out.

A Gut-Wrenching Week

I can't stop thinking about Omer Shem Tov, a young man with celiac disease who has spent the last 334 days as a captive.

His mom posted the other day that she heard from a rescued hostage that Omer is eating a little pita bread every day to survive, even though gluten tears up his stomach.

And this week has been a hard one. I mourn. I cry. I try to understand why this is happening when we said Never Again. But the suffering continues.

Please share Omer's STORY. We can be his voice when he hasn't one.

Sincerely,

Jenny 🩷
