We have a 5 year old Bernese Mountain dog named Lacey (aka. Lacey-Mae, Lacey-Moo, Miss Lacey, Angel Face, Princess Pea, Moo-Moos, Baby Girl and Barkasaurus Rex). She’s actually MY dog, that I generously share with the family sometimes and she is spoiled.
So much so, that she now […]
This freezer jam recipe is so super-easy that it is almost embarrassing to post on the blog. All you need is the berry of your choice, white sugar and a large soup pot to whip out some of the best jam you have ever tasted.
The fact that you source the ingredients makes it as wholesome and organic as you want and […]
I’m recently back from a blogging conference in Charleston, South Carolina where the weather was hot, the history enthralling, and the food rich and savoury. I can finally say I’ve tried Fried Green Tomatoes – which I assumed were un-ripe tomatoes deep-fried to hide their bitterness (not so, they are green when ripe – Duh!), […]
This post was originally written in the summer – when burgers are a staple – but that’s not to say you can’t whip up some of these super-juicy, cheesy, meaty, savoury best burgers whenever the mood strikes.
Some of the best parts of summer (for me) are the smells….
chlorinated pools, fresh cut grass, barbecues smoking, coconut sunscreen, the crisp, clean air after a storm…

Sure you could buy pre-made cookie dough and cut it up every time you want a sweet treat

you could make your own from scratch, save lots of money, look like a ‘June Cleaver Mom’, and have dozens ready in minutes!
I know which way I’d go.
Just call me “Junie C”.
One of our favourite treats in this house is […]
I wrote a similar article to this back in 2014 but it didn’t get any traction? Could be because I dyed my super-gooey rice krispie treats green in celebration of St. Patrick’s Day – which I still think was a cute tribute – but perhaps wasn’t a very appetizing image. (What!? You guys don’t pin green rice krispie treats?!)
Fair enough, I wouldn’t either.
One of the best things about winter (along with snow, hot cocoa, blankets, books and cuddling) is that it’s soup season. Warm, hearty, healthy and oh-so-delicious soup season. It’s like a hot bath for your tummy and a liquid savouriness (yes, that’s a word – at least with respect to this recipe) for your mouth… at least my Mom’s cream of tomato soup is.
