I know this has nothing to do with being gluten-free or food, but if you live in Santa Barbara, I insist that you go to the Coronado Butterfly Preserve to see the Monarch Butterflies. December and January are the best times to see them. We went this morning and were treated to an unbelievable site. It is an incredibly short walk so it won’t take up a huge chunk of your day. For directions and tips on when to go, visit the Santa Barbara Hikes Site.

After a super fun morning @underwoodfamilyfarms I picked up lunch from @lilacpatisserie - I ordered the salad du jour. It was a Caesar salad made with yummy GF croutons. I added oven roasted turkey to make it more filling and had an Arnold Palmer to wash it all down.
My husband and I try to have a breakfast date once a week after dropping our kiddos off at school. This Monday we went to @crushcakescafe in Goleta. I found out they had @traderjoes GF bread available that day but they do not have a designated GF toaster. I ended up ordering KC’s Sunny Side and a chai latte. It consisted of two eggs over roasted potatoes with sautéed kale, arugula and goat cheese. They confirmed that it would be made on a clean surface and with clean tools for me. Everything was delicious and the sizable back patio was perfectly comfortable!
If I had to come up with a dish that tasted exactly like fall, it would be the Saturday night special @bossieskitchen.sb - The pan-seared pork chop with butternut squash puree, roasted market veggies, apples and brown butter was exactly what you would want to eat on a chilly autumn night. It was so delicious and comforting. Luckily for me, it was naturally gluten-free! Just request them to prepare it on a clean surface and with clean tools and enjoy!
My daughter and I had a lunch date @lilacpatisserie today. I had the Turkey meatball soup (per usual) and the caprese salad. We split one of their massive chocolate chip cookies for dessert.
Start the weekend off on a great note with dinner @luckys_steakhouse - I had the Petit Filet with a side of their spicy garlic butter. Our table ordered the creamed corn, broccolini and hashed brown potatoes with gruyére. Everything was GF as is, but I made sure to ask for it to be made on a clean surface and with clean tools.
Enjoy going out for breakfast over the weekend @trelunemontecito - I had the Italian Morning with prosciutto and fresh cantaloupe. Order it without the bread to make it gluten-free!
