Bake-Off Challenge Round 4

Blessings this Thanksgiving
I'm in my kitchen baking and cooking but wanted to pause for a minute and wish you blessings on your day.

I can't believe these are gluten-free!
Welcome to Round 3 of the Great Bake-off Challenge with Angie Hunt! We're having a blast with this, and as I told you yesterday, we're honoring our pal and author Terri Blackstock and all the rest of you who can't (or either choose not to) eat wheat flour.
