I love chai tea, and I always have. Bold, sweet, and spicy, this milky chai tea recipe is my version of the traditional Indian tea drink that has swept the world over with joy. That might sound like a bold statement, perhaps, but I think I can pretty much safely say it at this point. […]
Alright everyone, I’m back today with a recipe for Shirley Temples, which was my first experience of a non-alcoholic “mocktail” ever. This drink comes with lots of good memories and plenty of good enjoyment for me! This beautiful beverage is a non-alcoholic cocktail, named for the child actress, Shirley Temple. It is a mixture […]
I love peach iced tea. Actually, I love iced tea in general, but I have to say I’m an especially huge fan of iced tea with the light, fresh flavour of peaches hidden in the background. I created this recipe after making a batch of Peach Raspberry Jam because I had a ton of peach […]
I’ve always wondered what I would crave if and when I would ever get pregnant… and well, people, the time has come. I’m learning my own needs! I can’t even say that I have cravings that are obviously pregnancy-related… maybe this is just a new phase of me-ness… but, I have found that I long […]
Sometimes life is a bit of blur. You know what I mean? You’re going along, working, thinking, spending time with people, and doing the normal day-to-day stuff, and then all of a sudden your realize… whoops.

Here I am, sitting down for my afternoon coffee break as if I don’t have a care in the world (I’m a big huge fan of afternoon coffee breaks), and I realized… Shoot. Forgot to write anything to go with today’s recipe. Yup. Totally… forgot. So, I’m a little tardy posting this one today, but […]
Smoothie bowls are so beautiful, don’t you think? When pictures of these delectable bowls of healthy goodness started appearing all over the internet, it wasn’t long before I felt like I had to make one. I love making pretty food, and this is such a simple way to make a beautiful treat. As noted in […]
Here’s yet another refreshing smoothie recipe for these hot summer days. I was just explaining to my boyfriend that smoothies feel like such a treat to me – We never really had fresh (or frozen) fruit readily on hand when I was growing up, and yogurt was just as rare of a treat. So, as […]
On hot summer days, few things beat sitting out on the porch with a thick, frosty smoothie bursting with the flavours of the season’s best fruit. For whatever reason, strawberries have always been a huge “Summer nostalgia” thing for me. They remind me of little kids’ fingers and strawberry-tinted cheeks, of summer nights with fireflies, […]
This quick, fruity green smoothie is a favourite. Kiwi gives it that tart, zippy fruity taste, and honeydew is sweet, cool and refreshing. Banana adds a little extra sweetness to offset the kiwi, thickening the whole thing a bit, and then the addition of spinach gives it some extra nutrition and colour. I tend to […]
