I apologize for how long it has taken me to respond to the poll and make a chocolate cheesecake smoothie for you all! It was my good friend Fran’s suggestion via Facebook and 27% of you voted for it to be the next smoothie challenge. And challenge it was! At the time of this brilliant […]

Fresh or dried herbs?

June 16, 2009 by Suzie the Foodie 8 Comments

I was wondering if there were any foodies out there who grow their own culinary herbs? I have tried many times and am giving it another shot this summer, trying to connect to my witchy ways again. I tried to grow them inside where I would see them and remember to use them but bugs […]

Favourite burger spot?

Recently I picked up a copy of Food Network Magazine, completely thrilled to hang out a little more with my Food Network pals and get more recipes. They asked their stars to name their top burger spot. That got my head reeling. Where is my top burger spot? Where is your top burger spot? I love […]

I will be showing you how to make stuffed French toast here but you don’t have to stuff it if you don’t want, this is a basic French toast tutorial. Is there anything better to eat on the weekends? I seriously doubt it. My husband is very particular about French toast so I had to […]

Recently Gary, one of the founders of ChefCommons.com, contacted me and asked to interview me for his site. What an honour! I had joined their community a couple of months ago. At first I did not know if I could, I wondered if perhaps you had to be a chef but it turns out, foodies […]

What the heck is a coddled egg?

When I was a kid, my Mom used to make the most amazing Caesar salad dressing that no restaurant could compete with. For years I bugged her for the recipe and one day she emailed it to me. I was so excited that I wanted to make it that day until I saw that the […]

Yesterday I had a great post already created in my mind. I had gone out for a walk in the crazy rain and brought Wreck This Journal with me. I took great pictures of me and my journal in the rain getting soaked and when I got home, I deleted them. I have no idea […]

Mom and I explored a lot of Latvian cuisine while she was visiting and we were determined to tackle one of the fancy Latvian desserts from the Latvian Cooking cookbook my mom bought for me at the Latvian Canadian Centre. I have a great love for hazelnuts and was thrilled to find out that they […]

Mom leaves for the airport tomorrow and I am already getting all weepy. I can not tell you how healing it has been for family to come visit and give me happy memories of Nova Scotia. Dad and my brother Jason came last year and brightened my spirits. After the longest and darkest winter of […]

Ahhhh…Peggy’s…..Cove

Saturday the forecast called for rain and for the entire day to be overcast and I just knew it was the perfect day to drive out to Peggy’s Cove. I was right! Mom was in photographer’s heaven there and said that it felt like an east coast Stonehenge. I completely agree. Most people just see […]
