Today I’m going to share a long-time family favourite recipe, featuring my sweet younger sister Tabithah, with whom I’ve thought for a long time would be fun to make a cooking video. She is hilarious. I know you can’t tell by these pictures, but trust me. It’s true. The main drawback I have to that idea […]
This recipe is a family favourite: it’s made with spiced, strong coffee, whipped cream, ice cream, and eggnog – making it one of the most festive, delicious, filling beverages you can possibly imagine. The coffee helps cut on the sweetness of the eggnog a little, and the addition of real, unsweetened whipped cream adds to […]
Rhubarb pie is one of my favourite things, in every form that I’ve had it. I’ve seen it before it with strawberries, sour cream, crumble topping, and all by itself; but, until I made it recently, I’d never seen it combined with apples. To me that seemed a little odd since the sweet, juicy flavour […]
I love eggplant. And surprisingly, I find that often the response I get to that comment goes something like this: “Oh really? I’ve never had it.” Or, “I have been curious to try it, but I have no idea what to do with it.” If you are either one those people, I have decided to […]
I’ve started writing this post so many times now, always deleting it and re-writing, trying to get that perfect intro. Nothin’ coming. I mean, what can I say to do this justice… “YUM.”? It’s brie! Wrapped in pastry! I mean, what else is there to say? Regardless, I’ll say this: This is one of the […]
Today I’m going to post about…. Dun-na… Are you ready? (I’m not going to ask if you can guess, because I think it’s pretty obvious.) MASHED POTATOES!!!! Yes. B-) I love mashed potatoes. I always have! And today I’m going to share with you two things: First, something you probably already know, and that is […]
Imagine a chocolate chip cookie… That always melts in your mouth, even after it has cooled. Imagine chocolate that was always soft and gooey, with caramel undertones and smooth texture, baked into a soft, homemade cookie. Sounds pretty good, yes? Well as of today, imagine no more! Apparently, such a thing is possible. I think […]
Today I’m gonna teach you how to make pita chips. You can make these spicy or mild, whatever you like. These are an easy snack, which are great served on a hot summer day with a bowl of hummus. We often like to make these for big parties for people to snack on– they’re easy […]
And now for the long awaited recipe– Baked Mars Bars! This recipe was inspired by an exceptional experience at Windsor’s Kildare House. We have a group of friends who made a tradition of eating there every year on Robbie Burns’ birthday, and we had this one favorite dessert, called a “Deep fried Mars Bar.” Wow, […]
Madeleines are little French cookies, made with lots of butter, egg whites, sugar and flour… And baking powder, of course. They are made with a sort of cake batter, which is piped into special molds for the Madeleine shape, and then baked. I only recently had the pleasure of tasting these cookies for the first […]
