I can’t believe that I’ve had the Baked: New Frontiers in Baking book FOR TEN YEARS, and have never made the Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe! Blasphemy! That’s why I was so excited when our Baked Sunday Mornings group announced we’d be going back to the Baked boys first book; there are still so many recipes......

With every week that went by this month, I felt better and I’m now pretty much back to normal, just with far less Doritos in my life. Here’s what I was up to: My new co-worker Georgia turned 30, and I told her she could have any treat she wanted. She asked if I knew......

It was my brother’s birthday last week, and I wanted to make a special treat for him and his fam. This doesn’t take any special brainstorming because they all absolutely love Lemon Meringue Pie. I wanted to put a bit of a twist on it though, and decided to make a cupcake version. I briefly......

I wanted to make my new co-workers a St. Patrick’s Day treat, and I knew right away that I would make these cupcakes. There are already a couple iterations of this Guiness chocolate cake with Baileys frosting in the archives; the first was a simple one layer cake, and the second was a super-hydrated bundt......

I usually spend February in hibernation mode baking Valentine’s treats, but things didn’t go according to plan this year. Your girl had her gallbladder removed unexpectedly at the beginning of the month!  I wasn’t eating much while I recovered, and was sticking to a pretty bland diet of high fibre/low fat foods, but as I......

We had a big fundraising event at work last week, and the following day, an email went out about some leftover items for sale. I wasn’t really interested until I saw the last line: LEMONS AND LIMES FREE TO A GOOD HOME. I remembered this Lemon Lemon Loaf was on our agenda for today, and......

I can’t even believe I’ve been keeping up this little blog for nine years! So much has changed in food blogging since 2010, and with the uprising of social media, blogs have definitely taken a backseat. Even though I also like sharing pictures of my finished cakes on Instagram, and occasionally sharing the process of......

You will never, ever catch me eating an Oatmeal Raisin Cookie. I’m not against raisins per se; they have their rightful place in the bottom of butter tarts and these Carrot Cake Breakfast Cookies I’ve been making lately. But for whatever reason, I just will not tolerate them in an Oatmeal Cookie. The Baked Boys......

This January was pretty low-key, as evidenced by the only foodie-related picture I could find on my phone this month (Bulk Barn is now selling Sweetapolita sprinkles in bulk!).  As a result, I will mostly be filing a report of recipes I cooked at home this month that I really liked: I’ve made this Broccoli......

Does this cake look familiar? My niece’s request for her birthday cake this year was awfully similar to last year, with one exception: WINGS. Did you know a Unicorn with wings was called an Alicorn? I sure didn’t, and when I asked “Isn’t that a Pegasus?” I was swiftly corrected: “No Auntie Robyn, a Pegasus......
