My friend Fran is one of my best foodie friends. I was thrilled to hear that she started hosting Epicure parties. My only regret is I could not go! We live a whole country apart. BTW, if you are looking for an Epicure rep, Fran rocks! So I was so excited that I could participate by product […]

With Easter around the corner and me receiving a special box from Sun-Maid, I had to try their pecan sticky toast. Definitely not for the every-day brunch but for a long weekend treat? Absolutely. I want to say thank you to Sun-Maid for the Easter treats too! You really know how to make product testing […]

Buttermilk Breadmaker Loaf

I like to make a loaf of bread just for weekend treats. This weekend I turned to a now-out-of-print breadmaker cookbook for inspiration. I came up with this recipe and I have to say, it worked perfectly. I know breadmakers can be noisy but for me, the sound of the engine wheezing and the dough […]

Are these not the most adorable mini pancakes you have ever seen?! And they have Nutella inside them! Despite having major issues with the PC coffee makers I bought, when I saw this cast iron Danish Pancake Pan for under $5… I had to pick one up. The pancakes looked so delicious and cute and […]

Thanks to a reader who fell in love with Pinterest like me, I discovered the foodie idea of waffling cinnamon buns. The pin originally came from Simply Designing and I was desperate for an economical and easy sweet brunch treat. I was out of everything and buying all the components to make cinnamon buns for the […]

Can you see the skull?! One of the reasons I adore Pinterest so much is I can keep all sorts of cool foodie ideas in one spot without having to print anything out. This way I have visual bookmarks for all sorts of amazing ideas and no giant stack of paper. When I saw this […]

My Eggs Charlotte courtesy of Loblaw. This year one of my dreams is to practice foodie gratitude. Appreciate not just the food I eat and enjoy but those who make my foodie life easier, more interesting and share their products with me. Not to worry, I will still be 100% honest and not hold back if […]

I was lucky to be asked to do a fun call-in interview with Ingrid Hoffman from Food Network’s show Simply Delicioso about sweet Cinco de Mayo treats using Eagle Brand Sweetened Condensed Milk. Check it out! Her Coffee Spanish Torrijas looked so good in video that I had to make it immediately! At first I finished it off with maple […]

Making Good Gingerbread Pancakes Fabulous!

These gingerbread pancakes were pretty good but I knew I could make them even better. I was looking for a healthier weekend pancake and wanted some soothing flavours at the same time and these pancakes fit the bill on both counts. Now the recipe does not say to sieve the dry ingredients but my powdered ginger was […]
