None of my usual birthday cake food groups were calling my name when I started thinking about what kind of treat I wanted to make myself this year. (For reference they are: Cookie Dough, Funfetti, S’mores and Chocolate/Peanut Butter.) I started flipping through a few cookbooks for inspo when I realized I STILL hadn’t made......
I’m really excited that some of my friends are starting to return to the office. I feel the potential for lunches and after-work drinks in the air, and I couldn’t be happier! My friend Erin is back to work every Friday, so we met up a couple weeks ago for coffee and promptly resumed our......
First Dessert Person entry for 2022! Now, everybody knows citrus desserts aren’t my favourite, particularly anything that’s tart and creamy at the same time. But my brother Joel feels the exact opposite, and it was his birthday this past weekend, so I knew right away that I’d make this for him. This recipe is pretty......
I’m ready to admit that I will only eat tomatoes in the month of August. The farmer’s market near my house sells their own field tomatoes, which are so fresh that there’s still a little bit of dirt on the outside. They’re dark red, juicy and bursting with so much flavour. How can a pale,......
Since my overall rhubarb inspiration was lacking this year, I decided to re-visit another stunner from the archives with this Strawberry Rhubarb Tart with Brown Butter Crumble. Back in 2011, I made this for Father’s Day, and my parents said it was the best thing I had ever made. I made it again for Father’s Day......
Of all the baking I’ve done with rhubarb over the years, one of the things I’ve never paired it with is chocolate, and I wasn’t about to start now. I just don’t feel like that’s a good match AT ALL, which is why I swapped out the brownie layer of these squares for a blondie.......
While I may not have figured out my signature summer cocktail just yet, here’s my Summer Sixteen signature dessert. I made this two weeks in a row, and considering I hardly every make the same thing twice, it automatically qualifies. This is what’s happening in this four layer party in a pie plate: Graham cracker......
When I was sick back in June and lying around on my couch drinking hot water with honey and lemon, I pretty much resigned myself to the fact that I was going to completely miss rhubarb season this year. I accepted the sad tragedy that it would be a rhubarb-less summer here on Planet Byn.......
The second dessert I made for my Blog-iversary party is another one I’ve wanted to make for years, and has a bit of a back story behind it. In 2011, food writer and blogger Jennie Perillo lost her husband suddenly. In response to the outpouring of support and people asking what they could do to......
This is actually a Baked Monday Night instead of a Baked Sunday Morning, but there’s another interesting twist here. See, I kind of cheated. I usually don’t read anyone else’s posts until I’ve written and posted my own, because I don’t want to be influenced by other opinions on whatever we’ve made. But today I......
