Wanna know how I spent my Friday, so I can make excuses for why there were no Saturday sweets to be found and no First on the First bread pudding to read about today? I was making the following things and not taking a single picture (good thing I took some other days :)): 2 […]
Fruit & Granola Wraps
I have a new favourite breakfast. And a new favourite lunch. And I’m sharing them both with you on the same day, can you believe it? AND I’m sharing them conveniently close to sharing homemade granola with you, which can be put to good use in this “recipe” of sorts…although I admit I used a […]
SATURDAY SWEETS: Pumpkin Chocolate Toffee Coffee Cake
Ok, I give in. All the pumpkin recipes circling the blogging world and covering Pinterest make my head spin…and make me very, very hungry. I’m not much of a bandwagon jumper, but this is definitely one of those times I am happy to follow the crowd – it’s a smart crowd. It’s time to break […]
Basic Homemade Granola
I used to be a honey-hater. Turns out I was buying the wrong honey, and getting the wrong impression from those horrid yellow and black fuzzy jackets. Don’t judge a book by it’s fashion, I suppose. Something like that. When you’re incubating a small one and want it to come out with all the appropriate […]
Saturday Sweets: Lightning McQueen Car Cupcakes
Thanks so much for following along with muffin week!! To top it off we have an extra special kind of muffin – THE CUPCAKE. I love birthday cake and cupcakes, and it is one of the few scents and flavours I crave when pregnant, so I was thrilled to have an opportunity to make (and eat) some! […]
Glazed Lemon Blueberry Muffins
Yesterday my little man turned TWO! I can honestly hardly believe it, and at the same time I can’t believe he hasn’t been two for ages. I can hardly believe it because I feel like I missed most of his first year and a bit in a blur of us not really getting along or […]
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 […]
Boterkoek AKA Butter Cake
I hate missing an instalment of Saturday Sweets. Sweets are near and dear to my heart, and I love that they have a day around here all to themselves! (Not that sweets never make other appearances :)) But alas, sometimes there are just not enough hours in a day, or even in 3 or […]
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 […]
Saturday Sweets: Peanutty Candy Bars
It was just going to be one of those unassuming days at Zellers, soon to be officially Target. I just needed a buggy to cart around little b and the spoils of what was going to be a large shopping trip. Turns out that their buggies need to swallow a loonie in order to be […]
