Kitchen Disaster: Pistachio Ice Cream… AGAIN!

June 14, 2018 by Suzie the Foodie 10 Comments

No, there is NO recipe card for this bastardization of a pitaschio ice cream. I failed once before to make this flavour of my childhood and thought I was being so clever to try a new take on it and wow, I was so wrong. Welcome to my test kitchen! The Inspiration I had no idea […]

How NOT To Make Pad Thai

August 22, 2017 by Suzie the Foodie 2 Comments

Looks good, right? Sadly… No. This was my first attempt at making Pad Thai for my Foodie Bucket List and I did so much wrong! Was it edible? Absolutely. But there were so many mistakes!!! Instead of hiding them in shame I am going to make sure you do not make them too. Tamarind Paste To […]

Suzie the Foodie’s Kitchen Confession #1 Japan Crate

April 30, 2015 by Suzie the Foodie 10 Comments

Make sure to watch all the way to the end to see some real foodie carnage! I have had the idea to do a video series called Kitchen Confessions for a while now but I was worried about getting too personal. I am actually quite an aloof person and will do just about anything to avoid […]

The Ultimate Ice Cream Book’s Strawberry Ice Cream

March 23, 2015 by Suzie the Foodie 4 Comments

Welcome to my kitchen disaster tale! It really should be titled “How I totally failed at making strawberry ice cream” or as the graphic says, “Strawberry Ice Cream From HELL!!!” I had such success making chocolate ice cream from The Ultimate Ice Cream Book: Over 500 Ice Creams, Sorbets, Granitas, Drinks, And More  that I […]

Getting past foodie frustrations

October 29, 2014 by Suzie the Foodie 10 Comments

For Thanksgiving, I wanted to make brownies from the cookbook Bake by Rachel Allen. Rachel is one of my baking heroes and I thought it would be a fun and unusual choice for the holiday. Brownies are challenging to make but I knew the rules on how to make them and thought it was a […]

Thank You Notes: Reg & Value Village

September 26, 2014 by Suzie the Foodie 4 Comments

When is stuff not “just stuff”? When it is YOURS! I actively try and live by the art of detachment but when you downsize and then move you have already decided what you can live without and what you want to take with you. Especially when you move across the country! I bought this popcorn […]

Pinterest Pin Fail: Hasselback Potatoes

May 16, 2014 by Suzie the Foodie 17 Comments

If you are like me, you spend tons of time browsing through Pinterest looking for all sorts of foodie inspiration. When I saw a pin for Hasselback Potatoes, I fell in love. I had to try it, especially when the pin said… “Better than fries! Cut potatoes almost all the way through, drizzle olive oil, butter, […]

Kitchen Disaster: “Luscious” Lemon Cake (in a slow cooker)

May 27, 2013 by Suzie the Foodie 2 Comments

Remember how I made Apple Butterscotch Crisp/Goo from the cookbook Slow Cooker Desserts? I wanted to try and give it another chance and make something that sounded wonderful: Light and lemony, this cake has a soft and velvety texture that works especially well for those nights when a heavy dessert won’t do. Sounded good to […]

When is a chocolate cake, not a chocolate cake?

January 24, 2013 by Suzie the Foodie 10 Comments

My friend Kelly (who is very much on my mind today) sent me the cookbook Five Roses: A Guide to Good Cooking, one of her favourites and a classic. I talked about on my vlog recently and did a recipe test over the holidays. Unfortunately I discovered that sometimes “classic” cookbook can be quite a challenge to […]
