This recipe is my bastardized version of your standard Chipotle rice bowl. It is my favourite meal and is ALWAYS a hit! I play fast and loose with a lot of the quantities in this recipe because I have yet to experience any sort of disappointment with this meal. I know the recipe looks quite […]
I subscribe to Martha magazine. Actually, I subscribe to quite a few magazines, but Martha is one of my favourites. I’m kind of a hoarder when it comes to her magazines too. If I like any of the recipes in the magazine, I end up keeping the whole issue. There are a couple recipes of […]
You know when you’re so hungry that you almost feel sick? When I get to that point, chances are that I will immediately reach for an english muffin to stave off hunger. I will eat english muffin with fried egg on top or covered in butter and honey or peanut butter or with a little […]
There’s a new cookbook in town…and she means business! Fun fact: I like bread, but don’t care for sandwiches. Is that weird? This is a cookbook devoted to all sorts of breads and bread-like things. Slathered in butter, covered in cheese, topped with oils, this cookbook shows you how to do it all. Fear not, […]

For this attempt, I used a pre-made sourdough starter that I bought online. It was relatively inexpensive, about $15 before […]
I’ve been on a cheese kick. Apologies if cheese isn’t your thing, but I can’t be stopped. I was inspired by our Cheesemaking class last week and the butter chicken mac & cheese that was served there to find a good recipe for homemade mac & cheese. I’m not a mac & cheese snob. I […]
Apple pie = my favourite kind of pie Cinnamon = my favourite spice Combining these two things in a nice two bite treat = best ever? We (my mum and I) made these caramel apple crisp bites last week while we were looking for a baking project. They were fairly simple: combine the graham crackers, powdered […]
I’m going through a phase right now where I hate all of my clothes. Every piece of clothing makes me rage. This seems to happen to me, in particular, when the seasons change and I haven’t figured out what my go-to weather appropriate outfits will be. I feel like I’m going through the same phase […]
I wasn’t always a cheese person. I wasn’t one of those people that could sit down with a block of cheese and just snack away. Then, one day, something happened: I was introduced to real cheese. Cheese that wasn’t orange or floppy and without distinct taste. On that, I became a cheese person. Yes, I […]
