Back To Baking: Dill Pickle Bread

April 27, 2020 by Suzie the Foodie 14 Comments

This is the perfect time to get into the kitchen and bake. Whatever the hell you want. Me? I wanted to make Delish’s Dill Pickle Bread. What did it teach me? Do not mess with the recipe. Normally I am quite comfortable at following a baking recipe to the T because, well, science! Baking is […]

Lorraine’s Chocolate Chip Cookies

January 26, 2010 by Suzie the Foodie 10 Comments

Although I made these with butter for this post, I recommend making them with shortening. They are much better that way! These are the first cookies I made after I left home and was on my own. I had moved from Toronto to Ottawa and really wanted to learn how to bake. Who did I […]

January 19, 2010 by Suzie the Foodie 8 Comments

When it comes to soup making, this is where you begin: carrot, celery, onion, garlic and broth. Yesterday was supposed to be sunny and clear. Instead it was dark and we got snow. Pain riveted through my body but I needed food so I made a quick and easy chicken soup for my winter worn […]

Back to Basics: Homemade Bread by Hand!

January 18, 2010 by Suzie the Foodie 11 Comments

This was a huge challenge for me to do. Number one: I have sensitive hands because of my fibromyalgia and they get hurt very easily. Number two: I have been so down and depressed lately that I can barely get off my couch let alone bake or cook. Number three: I usually avoid baking when […]

Back to Basics: Roast Chicken Dinner

January 9, 2010 by Suzie the Foodie 8 Comments

How to roast a chicken is one of those basic food lessons that I personally do not know well enough. My grocery store had some little fryer chickens (mine was 2.5 lbs) and it was Friday night and I was tired. I just wanted to put a dinner together, put it in the oven, forget […]
