Rah-Rah RUGELACH: First on the First

It’s December!! How exciting is that? Now I can legitimately play Christmas songs, have our tree and all our decorations up, and not have any questioning looks. It’s a good day :). It’s also First on the First day, which is a reminder to me how unseasoned I am in the kitchen. Especially when a […]

Best Ever Carrot Cake

Best Ever Carrot Cake

You know those foods that just taste like home?  Living at home, (and being a gigantic fan of cream cheese icing, and eating my vegetables in cake) this cake was definitely one of my favourites growing up. Needless to say, when I came across this recipe after not eating it for at least 6 years, […]

Raspberry Sweet Rolls

Life has been pretty fabulous around here lately. I just got a brand new nephew- hellloooo Theo!! (In case you missed it, you can see the cutie patootie here! :)) He is adorable, and soft, and makes me feel somewhat like a giant holding a cotton ball when I snuggle him, and I already love […]

FALL DECOR: Easy as Pumpkin Pie

FALL DECOR: Easy as Pumpkin Pie

This year I did a first for me – I decorated for fall! No, no, not Halloween, I will forever be confused by the idea of putting dead bodies in your front yard, and stringing up skeletons by their jaws, and calling it festive decor. If there is ever a corpse in my yard, I […]

Of Paint and Pregnancy

There are times I realize how amazing the people in my life are. Times like when I went to visit Anna at the paint store because I simply needed to repaint one of the main colours in my house. Yes, I painted it 4 months ago. And yes, the colours were, well, more than a […]

Saturday Sweets: Pumpkin Layer Cake

I’m losing it. Well, I may have already lost it, but I’m giving myself the benefit of the doubt. Besides, I can’t remember if I told you in a different post that I was losing it, or if it’s the first time. If it is the first time, then I can still get away saying […]

Love me Chicken Tender

Love me Chicken Tender

You know that thought you have when it’s summer time, and it’s beautiful outside, and someone offers you a plate of something sinfully delicious, and you have that nagging thought: “Oh dear, I’m probably going to get coerced into a bathing suit only minutes after I finish this”? Well, it’s officially time to welcome Fall!! […]

Orange Chocolate Muffins

Orange Chocolate Muffins

You know those times when you truly wonder why we do the things that we do? I had one of those this morning. I was attempting to pull a load out of the dryer, and put a new one in, with the help/hindrance of b’s little exploring hands, so eventually I grabbed the big ball […]

Raspberry Plats

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 […]
