I truly thought it would be a rhubarb-less year here on Planet Byn. Last year, without any new inspiration, I re-made a couple of my favourite recipes from the archives: Lemon Rhubarb Bundt Cake and Strawberry Rhubarb Tart with Brown Butter Crumble. So I thought I might just skip the whole thing this year, but......

I first made these fudgesicles all the way back in 2010! But in the spirit of Summer and Baked Sunday Mornings, I gave them another shot this week. This is a basically a frozen pudding pop, with the addition of some espresso powder. I was curious to see what would happen if I substituted the......

Last week I took my first true vacation since starting my (not-so) new job last Fall. I went to LA for a quick visit to see my friends Christine & Daryl (lots more on that soon!) and then was back home in time for a super fun charity event with my co-workers, Games 3 and......

One of my personal rules at work is to never schedule meetings before 9am or after 4pm unless absolutely necessary. I just feel that before and after those hours you’re never getting people’s full attention, and I personally like that time to prepare for/wrap up my day, so I like to keep it free if......

My life truly revolved around the Raptors playoff schedule this month, more so than any other year because they just MADE IT TO THE NBA FINALS for the first time ever (refer to my Drake on Cake pictured above)!!! Here’s what I ate between games: There was actually one event that was more important than......

Even though I’ve had Baked: New Frontiers in Baking for about 10 years, I’ve never even thought about making these Honeycomb Bars. Something about all those almonds and dried cherries just never appealed to me. But that’s the fun of Baked Sunday Mornings! Not only making things you’ve been meaning to try forever, but giving......

Sometimes the Baked cakes seem like too much work when you don’t have a special occasion to bake them for, and this is when I like to bust out my set of 6″ cake pans. Many years ago I learned (from Smitten Kitchen) that any recipe for a three layer 8″ or 9″ cake can......

It was a fun April over here with lots of cooking and baking at home, plus a life highlight thrown into the mix: THE BAREFOOT CONTESSA came to Toronto!!! I’m going to write a separate post on the event where I try to adequately express all of my emotions about Ina, because I can’t be......

Well, we’ve graduated from Minecraft Cakes to Fortnite Cakes over here. It was my nephew’s 10th birthday on Easter Sunday, so our festive holiday dessert was a V Bucks Birthday Cake. I don’t know anything about Fortnite (except randomly that there are celebratory dances in it?!) but my brother and nephew explained that V Bucks......

For the past 5 or 6 years, my friend Danielle has been making me the cutest Christmas gift: a calendar with pictures of all the treats I made throughout the year. It makes me so happy, and now that I have a cubicle again, it has a prominent spot on my wall. When I turned......
