As mentioned in my January recap, I have been cooking A LOT at home so far this year. I’m trying to remember to take pictures this month though so I can document my faves here. One of my co-workers recommended this recipe back in the times when we used to chat about such things over......
As stated multiple times on this blog, I am just not a soup person. Once in a while, I’ll take a chance on something that sounds like I might like it, and I did that last Winter with this soup from Pinch of Yum. I vaguely remembered that I liked it, but decided to give......
At the beginning of lockdown, so many blogs and food sites talked a lot about pantry meals. These posts presume that a) you even have a pantry and b) it’s well stocked with items just waiting to be used. Well, I definitely don’t have a pantry (just a small cupboard) and I’ve never been the......
This post goes out to my friend Weedy. She was telling me at Christmas how she loves Planet Byn for easy, weeknight dinner inspo, and name-checked these Thai Sloppy Joes as one of her favourites. I remember thinking I needed to blog more of these types of recipes, but then here we are in May, and......
I made risotto for the first time back in 2011, and was so excited about it that I waited almost five years to make it again. That’s just what happens in my kitchen though. There’s always something new to make, so I forget about the things I made that I loved. Risotto also has such......
Samosas are something that I always thought were best left to the pros. Two jobs ago, I had a lovely friend on my team that would bring me samosas and a trio of dipping sauces from her local Indian restaurant/bakery/store. She was the best, and those samosas were a joy in my life. She moved......

Updated with a new picture January 12, 2017 As soon as the weather warms up, all thoughts of cozy comfort food will be lost. It’ll be all about green things and fresh vegetables and the annual tradition of trying to convince myself I like asparagus. So I’m logging this here for the Fall 2014 Byn,......
  One of my goals for September was obviously not blogging to cook more real dinners at home. Once my big project launched at work at the end of June, I was busy having fun in July & August, and wasn’t really doing a good job of meal planning and cooking. After a super relaxing......
We now present a dinner six months in the making. Here’s my personal history with Banh Mi: 1. October 24, 2011: Mindy Kaling’s website. This was my first time hearing about Banh Mi. Mindy is basically my life role model (love her humour, fashion, style), so I was intrigued by her love of Banh Mi, but not yet......
