Finally, a complete bible that will transform the art of gluten-free bread baking from three-time James Beard Award-finalist Aran Goyoaga.

Author Aran Goyoaga has perfected the art of baking without gluten, and she’s garnered global attention for her ability to create bread full of texture and flavor using alternate flours. The Art of Gluten-Free Bread, Goyoaga not only shares her secret to the perfect gluten-free loaf, but she offers 100 recipes for the breads and pastries that those with gluten-intolerance dearly miss. Think biscuits, bagels, and the flakiest croissants.

The book begins where most bread does: the starter. Goyoaga presents three sourdough starters made with grain flours instead of wheat, and readers can use them to make to delicious baguettes, boules, and dinner rolls. Many of the recipes build off each other, so home cooks can easily adapt their doughs. Use a baguette dough to make Olive Pesto Pull-Apart Bread or incorporate your starter discard to make Banana Sourdough Bread. There are also yeasted breads, like Olive and Rosemary Fougasse; enriched breads, like Quickest Buttery Brioche; and holiday breads like Challah and Sourdough Panettone so nobody ever needs to miss a yearly tradition again. There is even a flatbread section, complete with recipes for pizza, naan, and tortillas.

With such a wide range of flavorful recipes, The Art of Gluten-Free Bread is the perfect cookbook for anyone who loves good bread.

Welcoming Autumn: A Meditative Watercolor Workshop & Gathering with Kimothy Joy

An afternoon of mindful watercolor practice, seasonal connection, and community gathering in the heart of Hudson Valley autumn

Join us for an afternoon to connect with the spirit of the season with a floral still-life painting class with Kimothy Joy. 

As the Hudson Valley transforms into its autumn splendor, join Kimothy Joy and Frances Grace at Sweet Flower Farm for an afternoon of mindful connection—with the changing season, with each other, and with the quiet wisdom that emerges when we slow down to truly see.

This isn't just a painting class—it's a gentle ritual of welcoming autumn through watercolor meditation. 

Grounding into the energy of the fall harvest, we will circle with intention, soak in the abundance of the season around a long table of fruit, flowers, and foliage of the season. Kimothy leads her classes as a practice in mindfulness, joy and creative expression. 

We will close with a chance to gather with our new friends around delicious local bites, wine, and autumnal botanical mocktails.

Perfect for anyone seeking to slow down, connect with the season, and explore creativity in community. 

No watercolor experience necessary—just bring an open heart and willingness to be present. Ideal for those who appreciate mindful practices, seasonal living, and authentic Hudson Valley experiences.

Take Home: 

Your seasonal artwork, a custom handmade in Italy paint palette by A.Gallos
