Are you ready for another delicious, easy recipe to add to your repertoire? Oh good. This recipe actually comes from Anna’s mother in law, who was kind enough to share it fresh out of the oven with my husband and myself when we were visiting – oh, and we let Anna and Carl have a […]
Double Chocolate Waffles
Carl bought “me” a waffle maker for Mother’s Day this year and, while I’ve yet to actually make waffles, I have had some pretty amazing waffles since. I’ve never been a fan of waffles, but I’d also never had homemade waffles – the difference is like that between store-bought Wonderbread and fresh homemade bread: incomparable. […]
Peach Raspberry Crisp
Since I’m sure you’re all totally tired of hearing about my lovely time on holidays, I thought I’d tell you about a delicious recipe you should all make instead :) My mom made this family favourite for us to enjoy this week and was kind enough to let me photograph it before (and after) we […]
Juicy Chicken Parmesan
I’m off for a mom-and-sisters’ pedicure soon in preparation for tomorrow’s wedding, but I just wouldn’t feel right relaxing without sharing this easiest of recipes with you all :) Really, it could well be that I’m the last to get on this mayo-chicken bandwagon, but just in case there are a few stragglers out there […]
Perfect Homemade Play Dough
Tonight I’m attending my 10-year grad reunion. It kinda makes me feel like I’m getting old, but also kinda makes me feel SO YOUNG to be well on my way to baby #3, to have moved 5 times with my husband (and high school sweetheart), to be a perpetual student in various fields, to be […]
The Very Best Cinnamon Buns
Crickee crickee, crickee crickee. What’s that? Ooooh right, that would be me, not blogging. (Well, to be clear, that was meant to be crickets, but who really has the art of writing a cricket sound down to an art? – No one – for real – I googled it.) It’s true. It has been a […]
Lemon Chia Seed Muffins
My little sister’s big day is coming up this summer and I’m so excited to see her walk down the aisle, to see my little girl be a flower girl, and just to see my whole family together for the first time since last summer (I know, a lot of families go longer, but for […]
Pumpkin Spice Breakfast Cakes
I know, it’s summer. But where I live in the Fraser Valley, you certainly wouldn’t know it to look outside. We’re in the middle of the coldest June on record, and rain is the norm. Quite honestly, I am heavily in favour of cool weather and a little dampness, so I’m not complaining. The weather […]
Saturday Sweets: Double Chocolate Zucchini Cake
Last night we had two university volleyball teams over for a barbecue, so I thought I should make things look presentable. In case someone should wander the halls, I pulled the bed together and threw on the accent pillows that so often lie unnoticed on the couch in our room. At bedtime, Carl pulled back […]
Grilled Summer Vegetable Platter
When summer hits and the smell of grills fills the neighbourhood, I am thankful I no longer live in an apartment with regulations that meant my barbecue sat dormant on the balcony for the whole two years we lived there. Summer is made for grilling, and these veggies are one of my favourite things about […]
