I Crave It, I Make It, I Eat It! What's so crazy about that?
There's a couple of days on the calendar each year I dread. There's no way around them. I wish I could pretend they don't exist. But they do. And that sucks. March 5 is the day my Mom passed away in 1984. May 7 is the day my Dad passed away in 2007. I wrote about my Dad last year. I also wrote about my Mom last year, and did a huge multi-blogger memorial for her this year. I was going to do the same for my Dad but my life is so in flux and high stress right now … [Read more...]
I just love no bake desserts. They make me happy. I think it's the fact that you can fool people into thinking you spent all day making cute little desserts... when you really spent all day watching things like The Real Housewives of Everywhere and Anywhere. So apparently I'm admitting to getting a kick out of tricking folks. Not sure what that says about me. Not sure I really care. I've got a full belly and I caught up on all The Real Housewives this week. So life is good. And when … [Read more...]
Okay folks, let's just start with this... it says blow TORCH. Glad we cleared that up! And yes I actually did use a blow torch. Cuz I'm cool like that. And a little crazy like that! … [Read more...]
Hi folks. Happy Thanksgiving Monday to all my Canuck friends and family. Hope you are still eating yourselves silly today. It's the one weekend you can eat like a linebacker and get away with it. So enjoy it while it lasts. Cuz you all know tomorrow is going to be all about a lot of us stepping on the scale and screaming. Our American friends will hear the collective gasps of horror and know their time is coming. Won't be long till we'll hear their screams next month. … [Read more...]
Hi folks. Okay, so I owe you some vacation photos. I can explain. I fell asleep. Seriously. I was really tired. … [Read more...]
Hi folks. Long time, no post. If you were unaware, I lost my marbles along with my health on our trip out west. So, long story short I'm okay but confused, worn out and in need of medical intervention. I'm hanging in there though and trying to keep my sense of humour about things. I'll fill you in more on the whole ordeal later this week. For now I'd like to turn your attention to Sunday Supper and our Mexican Fiesta. … [Read more...]
Hello my lovely readers. Thirsty? Yah, you bet you are. So am I. Been a bit since my last post, so I just have to say "Long time...no post!" Bah ha ha, had to do it. Life has been hectic here. I've been a busy gal. I did a little of this: … [Read more...]
It's that time of the month again. Time for The Secret Recipe Club reveal. SRC is a group of bloggers who make recipes from each other's blog on the sly than once a month each sub-group reveals their pick for the month. We get assigned a blog by our fearless leaders, then we go in stealth mode and scope out which recipe we want to make from our assigned blog. We make the recipe, take some picks and then Mission Impossible style all reveal at the same time on a set day. It's a cool group. And … [Read more...]
Today is my first post with the Sunday Supper group. I am so thrilled to be participating. I was hesitant to join as I am already doing Ice Cream Sundays and have been for over a year now. But I threw caution to the wind and figure I can either make some Sunday Supper dishes ice cream related or I can post twice on the Sundays I participate. This group is so special it's worth making some sacrifices. The Sunday Supper Movement is an initiative to bring back Sunday Supper Around the Family … [Read more...]
So happy its Wednesday. My favourite day of the week. Each Wednesday I get to share one of my fave bloggers with you. So I look forward to Wednesdays so I can bring you another edition of Burning Down The Kitchen. For those unfamiliar with the series it's a weekly post where I feature another blogger and interview them. It's light-hearted and meant to give us a glimpse into the lives of our fave food bloggers. The series started when I realized I had a rather large list of bookmarks for … [Read more...]
