Ok guys, trying to get back into blogging, I’m realizing: Mom blogging is a whole new world. At the time I write this I am 8 months pregnant and I have an almost-one-year-old clinging to my ankles. As you may (or may not) know, this blog has been an ongoing saga of start-and-stop for a […]
What is one of the best tasks to find yourself needing to accomplish on a summer day? I’m guessing this: angling a large mouthful of light, fluffy, not-too-sweet (but just sweet enough) strawberry shortcake into your mouth. Likewise, a similarly great task would be angling a second bite of that same strawberry shortcake into your […]
I always liked tomato soup; but I have to say, for most of my life I never knew how incredible it could be when you make it from scratch! Or, for that matter, how easy it would be to make. Making tomato soup from scratch has become a favourite, go-to recipe of mine – especially […]
Yes. This is my second time posting a cranberry recipe this month. First I make Cranberry Bran Muffins, and now, I give you: a beautiful cranberry nut roll. I love cranberries, and I would love to put them into almost everything I make at this time of year. They’re so beautiful and just BURST with […]
With Christmas coming around the corner, I figured it was time to write about some buttery, sweet, beautiful homemade treats we can all make for the holiday season. These miniature cherry turnovers are just the thing! The best thing about these pastries is that everything can be prepped in advance – which means that you […]
These muffins are delicious. I created this recipe for my husband and I while we were looking to increase our daily intake of fibre, and he was needing to be off of dairy at the time. They came out so nicely, and I can’t believe how perfect the sweetness is for how little sugar is […]
Well everybody, Christmas is around the corner, and I think it’s time we all started (if you haven’t already) to make some cookies! For me, I usually kick of the Christmas baking season with one easy, favourite recipe that isn’t the most fancy or most special. This chocolate sugar cookie recipe is just such a one […]
Here’s a recipe that’s all about nostalgia for me: Plume moos, or in more familiar terms to most people, plum compote. My Oma used to make this, and one day, while I was pregnant, I got it into my mind that I really wanted to have it again… So I set to work trying to […]
This is one of my most favourite recipes in the world. I mean, I realize I probably had you at “Macaroni and Cheese” – It’s kind of a famous dish. But truly, I’ve never had it so satisfying and so delicious as it is in this recipe! I’ll be the first to own that perhaps […]
Rice cooked with milk is something I grew up on and have come to love more in my adult years than I ever did as a kid. You can eat it as a breakfast food, or as a dessert, topped with sugar or a fruit sauce. This recipe is a little thinner than I remember […]
