When Claire posted her recipe for English Muffins back in the summer, I borrowed my brother’s cast-iron skillet so I could give them a try. This was perfect timing, because he was about to embark on a kitchen reno, so there wouldn’t be any cooking happening over there for a while. But then I kept......
This is just a quick post to remind myself that this Double Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe is perfect. These cookies are thick, chewy, deeply chocolate-y and excellent for a variety of additions. I vividly remember being let down by the last double chocolate chip cookie recipe I tried last summer, because I included it in......
What a joy and thrill to be able to celebrate Thanksgiving with a table full of family this year, and even have a few small birthday outings! Here’s what else was going on during my favourite month of the year: I stuck to the classics for Thanksgiving this year, and for the first time, I......
People have started coming back to the office! Last week I had two of my co-workers come back for a day, so I welcomed them with this Pumpkin Coffee Cake which was a big hit. This week two different teammates were in, so I used up the rest of my pumpkin puree from the can......
After all the treats of Thanksgiving and my birthday, I found myself at the office one day in search of something fresh for lunch.

Life continues to slowly inch its way to returning to normal, and I was so happy to have friends over to my place this month! Here’s what was going on: I almost missed PICKLING SZN because of my Wedding Cake Project and Ottawa trip at the beginning of the month, but got organized enough to......
It’s been a minute since I baked anything new out of my Baked cookbooks, so I thought it would be fun to do a Baked Sunday Mornings post! This recipe is from Baked Explorations and the group made it all the way back in 2012 (who knows what I was up to or why I......
It would be impossible to power rank all the carbs that I love, but English Muffins would easily crack the Top 5. I love them toasted with peanut butter and jam or as part of a homemade breakfast sandwich. There’s just something about all those toasty nooks and crannies! I always thought it would be......
I tried to soak up as much of summertime as I could this month, while also preserving my baking mojo for my big Wedding Cake project at the end of the month. Here’s what was happening: My co-worker and I went out for lunch at the beginning of August to Maro’s, which I forgot how......
