I thought I would finish off the week with my final Fathers Day treat, this time for my father-in-law. I woke up on Sunday morning and baked these mini muffins for him again. You can read about the original batch here. They are inspired by Janet and Greta‘s Little Miss Muffin Tops recipe. This time I remembered […]

I remember seeing Ricardo make these strawberry marshmallows on his show Ricardo and Friends and I was amazed! I knew you could make homemade marshmallows but with natural strawberry flavour?

I do not know if you can call strawberry rhubarb pie retro but you absolutely can call it a classic! We will be getting our first day of really warm weather today so yesterday while the rain was gently falling outside I decided to make a pie white it was still cool. I was inspired […]

I used to watch Emeril on the Food Network all the time. Over the top? Yes. Fun? Absolutely. His food? Fantastic.

For weeks now I have been waking up trying to come up with a recipe for Cold Berry Soup. You see, in the last issue of Victoria Magazine they had a section dedicated to cold soups for the summer. I saw the Old-Fashion Strawberry Soup recipe and thought, no, that is not right. That is […]

Above you can see some cold butter that I have cut into piece and put into some flour in a very deep stainless steel bowl. One of my pet peeves in the kitchen is mess. I like the deep bowl because I can be aggressive when mixing the flour and butter together with my pastry […]

May 25, 2009 by Suzie the Foodie 12 Comments

Mangoes are crazy expensive these days, at least in Nova Scotia. Our produce prices are ridiculous! As a result, I have had to become a very picky shopper and wait until foods go on sale or are marked down. Luckily I found two mangoes were being sold for $1.29, half price. Thus, the mango madness […]
