You know it is important to examine your life to learn from it and grow but I must admit, it was hard to go way way back to January when my life officially fell apart. So I am starting with a recent photo of myself. I dyed my hair copper and am trying to be […]

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 […]

Personal Accomplishment 2017 is coming to an end and wow, what a crappy year I have had. This time last year my kitchen ceiling was threatening to cave in due to a leaky roof and look! It still has not been fixed although the landlord finally did get us a new roof. Also, nothing like […]

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 […]

CandyTown? I don’t think so…

November 26, 2016 by Suzie the Foodie 10 Comments

It is rare for me to write about something before going to it but I did so for CandyTown 2016. The promise of candy was just too hard to resist, even on a super crappy rainy day in Vancouver. I braved the elements and took a bus and Skytrain down to Yaletown and was so […]

When Foodie Memories Let You Down

July 21, 2016 by Suzie the Foodie 5 Comments

When I was a kid, I ADORED pistachio ice cream! I actually did not know that was the flavour for a long time. I just knew I loved the green ice cream. Until one day, it turned to mint. My tastebuds were so completely offended, I have never liked mint my entire life. Damn you […]

Lunch at Breka on Davie Street, Vancouver

March 1, 2016 by Suzie the Foodie 14 Comments

Breka Bakery & Café was supposed to be my oasis. I went downtown for an important medical appointment and, as usual, ended up being super early. I thought this would give me time to treat myself to lunch and the place was packed so clearly, it was popular. I thought that was a good sign. The […]

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 […]
