Alright, I had one new strawberry/rhubarb recipe that I wanted to make this year, and it’s this sangria. Was I mostly motivated by these super cute cups I bought at Lionheart Prints in New Orleans? Yes indeed! My old boss was having a bunch of people over to his new condo for drinks last week, and......
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......
Last Summer, I was obsessed with Frosé, and documented my trials extensively here. By the time I figured out the best way to make it, Summer was over and I had no use for my new skills. Well, Summer’s back in full effect and I only have one goal*: TURN EVERY COCKTAIL INTO A SLUSHIE.......
I’m currently facing a disaster of epic proportions at my job: my new team does not eat baked goods. And I’m not talking about the one person who’s gluten-free, the one that’s lactose intolerant, or the other one that’s doing an elimination diet. I’ll bring tasty treats to our weekly team meeting, and maybe three......
It’s official. I’ve reached the end of the internet when it comes to rhubarb recipes. I was waiting for Smitten Kitchen to post something new this year, but nothing popped up, so maybe she feels the same way. The very first rhubarb recipe I posted was in the first year of Planet Byn, back in......
I’m conditioned to think that May 1 is the beginning of summer because of the way my university terms were structured, and I definitely felt a lightness in my spirit this month after a depressing spring. This month was centred around my trip to New Orleans, but there were a couple foodie outings back here......
I’m so obsessed with Harry & Meghan I don’t even know where to begin. When the news first broke that they were together, I was like, what? That girl from Suits? But with encouragement from my friend Krishna, I opened my heart to this royal romance and was so excited for their wedding. Kristine was once......
When it was time to plan the foodie agenda for our trip to New Orleans, there were only two things I knew we had to have: beignets and po’boys. Everything else I learned from the New Orleans section on Joy’s blog, Bon Appetit’s city guide, and some additional googling. Here’s the best of what we ate......
Way back in 2011, Joy the Baker and Tracy Shutterbean hosted a retreat in Palm Springs called Homefries U. It was named after their podcast that I listened to every week. This was before I had an iPhone, so when I say I listened to it, I mean I would drag my laptop to my......
Now that my wedding cake experience is over, I hope to have a bit more baking time to get back into the swing of Baked Sunday Mornings! I may go back and post a few things to catch up, but for now, consider this my first recipe back. I made these Chipotle Cheddar Biscuits way back in......
