Skillet cookies. Also known as the reason I bought a cast iron skillet. Also known as the reason I no longer fit a size zero skirt (that could also be because I’m not 17 anymore). Also known as how to win friends and influence people with only one dish and 30 minutes from “hey, we […]
Barbecue Pulled Pork Enchiladas
I am a slave to what you people want. You worry about all the sweets I eat: I join boot camp. You coo at pictures of babies: I make more babies. You ask for more savoury recipes: I deliver. And by “deliver“, I mean I ROCK ME SOME SAVOURY. Yup, I said it. I am […]
The Very Best Cinnamon Buns
Crickee crickee, crickee crickee. What’s that? Ooooh right, that would be me, not blogging. (Well, to be clear, that was meant to be crickets, but who really has the art of writing a cricket sound down to an art? – No one – for real – I googled it.) It’s true. It has been a […]
Strawberry Rhubarb Crumble
Today I am shamelessly taking credit for something I did not make. My mom made this delicious dessert, over on the other side of the country from me, and when she told me about it, I naturally encouraged her to take a picture of two and send them my way. Food blogging 101: How to […]
Saturday Sweets: Chocolate Surprise Cupcakes
When it comes to cake and cupcakes, box mixes have spoiled a lot of things for me. They’re just so. darn. good. But I don’t want to use a box mix. I just want it to have that same light, fluffy, almost-dry, stick-to-the-back-of-your-throat crumb texture that stays fresh for days and doesn’t take over from any filling […]
Pumpkin Spice Breakfast Cakes
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 […]
Broccoli Salad
I tried Cheerios for the first time last night. Um, how did they become so popular? I buy them for an easy portable snack for my kids, but had never actually tried them with milk. I’m one of those who just splashes milk near my cereal bowl, since I’m technically sensitive to it and don’t […]
Saturday Sweets: S’mores Oat Bars
Yesterday I put on my skinny jeans and had a moment of realization. I am not skinny anymore. I wore them uncomfortably all day, but it’s officially time to retire that particular pants option until after this baby is born. And if I can’t wear the skinny jeans anyway, it’s really time to go crazy […]
Guest Post: Homemade Sponge Toffee
First of all, thank you so much to Jennifer over at Peanut Butter and Peppers for nominating me for the Versatile Blogger award! I’ve been putting off mentioning it for aaages because it comes with the stipulation of passing it on to 15 other deserving bloggers, but I’ve decided I just can’t narrow it down […]
Berry Balsamic Glazed Chicken
Oh, hello Monday. We meet again. I had an interesting chat with some other ladies about procrastination over the weekend, and this is the week things change. I will check off everything on my to-do list, even the dusting. A big part of this for me will be making more reasonable weekly to-do lists with […]
