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 […]
Whole Wheat Pumpkin Banana Muffins
Sleep and sugar. I need more of one and less of the other, but I keep getting confused as to which is which. I also get confused by weird orange-coloured banana muffins. But I like them, and I think you will too. I have a lot of recipes that use 3 or more bananas, and […]
Easy Cheddar Chive Biscuits
When spring arrives and the flowers bloom, I am always thrilled to get a cool, rainy day. Call me crazy, but I hang onto fall and winter as long as I can – I love the coziness of being inside, the cooler temperatures when I’m outside, and the food, all the winter food! I just […]
Glazed Chai Spiced Muffins
I’ve been trying to cut back on sweets just a little lately, mainly because my 1 year old is a snackaholic and I can’t even look at a snack while he’s awake without being forced to give him some. My 3 year old was never, and still isn’t, that into sweets, and would take raw […]
Easter Traditions: Poffert
Happy Saturday!! This recipe reminded me again of how wonderful it is to blog with my sister – while I was planning Easter picnics for the kids, making weird brown gingerbread eggs, and going to concerts, she was hard at work on Easter recipes. Since she gets to go away for the weekend with family, […]
Pumpkin Spice Muffins
Does anyone else have a problem choosing a mascara? I was once again reminded of my inability to choose which one to get when my latest tube ran out. I am a grown woman. I make decisions. I make choices. Some are big, some are small. But why, oh why, am I completely inept at […]
Rhubarb Cinnamon Muffins
I love completing things I’ve pinned on Pinterest. The majority of things I check off are recipes, so it’s doubly exciting when I actually manage to pull off something decor related. I found this fantastic idea on the lovely blog Not JUST a Housewife, and immediately fell in love. I’ve had empty walls in the […]
Zucchini Muffins with Nutella Swirl
Ah, Monday. Hello again, old friend. I am one of those weird people who kinda loves Monday mornings…back into schedule after a busy weekend, and I can usually count on a couple early-week evenings all to myself to recover, regroup, and watch a little mind-numbing TV. I am a creature of habit and routine, and […]
Cranberry White Chocolate Scones with Orange Icing
You’ll never guess who we have guest posting on this day of looooove. It’s our mom! (Would you have guessed that?) Really, on a day about love, we can’t forget how much love exists in the world that isn’t romantic love. What is stronger than a mother’s love? I’d wager on nothing, personally. I would […]
Pomegranate Oatmeal Muffins
The side ponytail is taking over my life. Sidebraids, side twists, side buns…I’m doing them all. My hair has gotten a little longer than usual due to my lack of time and money, and I’m embracing it. I think it’s catching on, I really do. In (clearly) related news, pomegranates are taking over my life. […]
