You know those mornings? You know, those mornings, when you’re up at 5am writing a blog post, when you’d really rather be curled in your deliciously warm and cozy bed, but someone *ahem* is making that quite impossible? It’s true. My adorable and sweet little baby girl, has decided that 5 am is now an […]
Saturday Sweets: Chocolate Pretzel Bark
What was your new years resolution? To eat healthier? Well, you know it’s Saturday, so of course it’s time to share a sinfully sweet recipe with you!

White Cheese and Chicken Lasagna
You know when you have one of those moments where you are praying that a) no one is watching, and b) a store has no security cameras? No, no, I didn’t steal anything, and I think my mistake can really be made by anyone. At least, that’s what I’ll tell myself. I love automatic doors. They are […]
Chicken, Brie & Pomegranate Wraps
Have you met my friend Brie? Well, truth be told, we’re more than friends. I am in love with Brie. I would take Brie for walks on the beach if I could, maybe to a nice restaurant. I would wine Brie and dine Brie. Well, I would dine on Brie with wine, at least. It’s […]

The gift of wrapping // Raspberry and White Chocolate Nanaimo Bars
There are many things I can do. I can count by twos and tie my shoes. I can zip zippers and button buttons. But I cannot. Am unable. Find it impossible. To wrap presents. In even half of a presentable way. It’s true. My presents are not presentable. Every Christmas I come at the job […]
An Eye Brow Affair
You know those times when you’re in an impossible situation, but you can’t, in good conscience and good manners, do what you would like to do, which is make a head-first dive-and-roll jump for the nearest exit? I had one of those moments the other day. Many years ago, a girlfriend of mine introduced me […]
Orange Nanaimo Bars
Do you love Nanaimo bars? I do. I’ve seen many a good diets fall as helpless prey to a plate of nanaimo bars. You know what else I love? Orange chocolate. I search them out in the Pot of Gold boxes (I have to be faster than Anna), and I only really enjoy it around […]
Mmmmaking mmmmarvelous mmmmmorning mmmuffins
It’s true. I don’t know what to call these muffins. Besides delicious, that is! Sorry, that was awful, even for me. But truth be told, there is so much goodness in them, that there is no suitable name. However, I’m pretty sure if you ever come back to our site and want to find back […]
