Have you met my new friend Meringue? I was a little skeptical at first, but, like many people, the things I sometimes end up liking the most are the ones that I have the most doubts about. While this does not bade well for my character judgment, not to mention books, movies, etc., I love […]
Pumpkin Toffee Cheesecake
For us Canadians, Thanksgiving has come and gone and some of us are already in full Christmas mode. I may or may not be done my Christmas shopping already…it helps that I had all of one lovely lady on my list since we’re paring down this year, but I’m feeling accomplished nonetheless! I’m even more […]
Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins with Streusel Topping
You know those days when you feel more inspired than others? The very best days that make you wonder if you ever actually need to sleep again? Well, this Saturday was one of those days, and now I am more excited than ever, thanks to Anna, about bringing you amazing recipes with amazing pictures! With […]
Jumbo Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookies
I’m pulling into my bag of past tricks for today, folks. Those recipes I made who-knows-when-ago and saved for a day like this when I had excuses. Care to hear some? I made a pumpkin pie toffee cheesecake last night that smells and looks amazing, but it’s for a special brother-in-law/birthday boy and I don’t […]
Chocolate Almond Squares
At first I wasn’t going to share this recipe with you. I made them expecting a chocolate-almondy coating with a shortbread-type crust similar to the one on my Almond Fudge Topped Shortbread and Chocolate Toffee Bars. So the cake-like crust on these caught me off guard and I immediately decided it wasn’t my favourite recipe. […]
C is for Cookie, that’s good enough for me
We really love cookies around here. For example, you should probably make Milk Chocolate Chewies or Peanut Butter Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies this afternoon. At the latest. I never get tired of trying new things when it comes to cookies. And I never get tired of eating cookies. And today happens to be my 27th birthday, […]
Mini Pumpkin Ginger Donut Muffins
I made these awhile back and have been meaning to tell you about them in case you had pumpkin languishing in your fridge looking for an outlet, but it’s taken me so long to post them you’ve probably used it all by now and will have to open a new can and start the whole […]
No Bake Chocolate Oat Delights
Do you ever get so caught up in making new recipes that you forget about old ones? I am definitely guilty of that, so every now and then I like to go through my trusty, food-splattered family cookbook and find a recipe from my childhood that I haven’t made lately, despite always loving it. These […]
Pumpkin Spice Scones with Cinnamon Glaze
Like most of the blogging world, I’m on a major pumpkin kick. Fresh fall days are here, along with changing leaves and crisper temperatures. Combine that with the fact that I finally kind of know where I put things in my kitchen in the mad frenzy of unpacking, and I am back in the […]
Pumpkin Gingersnaps
Do you know someone who seems to know exactly what you feel like eating, moments before you realize yourself what you might feel like eating? It used to be my mom. Sometimes it’s my husband. Sometimes it’s even myself, when I bake something or make a meal plan for the next day and the next […]
