October is always a packed month for me, with Thanksgiving, my birthday and Halloween, plus this month I had trips to NYC & Vancouver in the mix as well, so there was a lot going on. Besides my favourite baking project of the year, I didn’t get up to that much while I was in......
This is it! Our last recipe from Baked Elements! I only joined in on this book about a year ago, but because of the expedited baking schedule of the last five months, have been able to make about half of the recipes. I’ll do a little recap below of my favourite recipes from the book,......
So I have actually made Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls before, but as if I would pass up a chance to try the Baked boys’ recipe! I don’t need that much of an excuse to make spiced, carby goodness, and I mixed these up last weekend, which was Thanksgiving up here in the great white north. This......
Today is my BIRTHDAY and there was no question in my mind what my birthday cake would be this year. I’ve had my eye on this cake forever, and then my friend Danielle made it twice this summer, and I knew it needed to happen. I’ve written about this at length before, but I love......
This is one of my favourite, if not the BEST Baked Sunday Mornings, for reasons that have very little to do with the actual recipe we made. I’m still feeling all sorts of warm fuzzy feelings from this week’s trip to NYC where I got to meet many of the Baked Sunday Mornings crew. It......
Magical. That’s the only way I can even begin to describe my whirlwind, 36-hour trip to New York City. As I sat in Washington Square Park, I just had a moment: is this really my life? Who takes a mid-week, two day trip to Manhattan for a cookbook launch party??? Turns out I do, and I’m......
Attention everyone! Baked Occasions is out today!!! This is the 4th book by Matt Lewis and Renato Poliafito, who I affectionately refer to as the Baked Boys. I recipe tested for this book, and thought this would be a good chance to talk a bit about my experience. As you know, I’ve been a part......
Pumpkin Spice products are so trendy right now, as evidenced by the pictures my friends sent me when they were shopping at Target in the States last week. The products included, but were not limited to: M&Ms, marshmallows, Pop-Tarts, Oreos, chocolate bars, Jell-O pudding and even Pumpkin Spice Sweet Potato Chips. Attention packaged food companies......
Our friend Christina is having a baby, and of course we’re having virtual baby shower to celebrate! Christina is expecting another boy in November, and he’s sure to be a heartbreaker just like his big brother. When Christina and her husband Simon found out that they were having a boy, their cutie pie Timothy suggested......
I personally love September, and the whole ‘back to school’ of it all. Routines are re-established, cooking dinner starts happening again, and boots and scarves come out of hibernation. Unless you live in Southern Ontario, in which case it was hotter than the actual summer months around here. Here’s what happened in my foodie world......
