A few summers ago, my friend Danielle and I both got really excited about these ice cream sandwiches on Smitten Kitchen. I, personally, have some issues with ice cream sandwiches in general, mostly because my teeth are really sensitive and I can’t handle the thought of biting into ice cream. Also, because I hate it when......
The rest of the team is making a semifreddo today, which I’m passing on for two reasons: It contains raw eggs. My friend Carole told me the likelihood of you-know-what contamination is very rare from the eggs we buy/eat from grocery stores, but it still freaks me out a little bit. My freezer is currently......
Our sweet friend Meg is having a baby! What better way to celebrate than with a virtual baby shower in her honour. Meg’s expecting Baby Girl #2 at the end of this month, and we’re all so excited for her. I love that we’ve been there for all the fun parts of Meg’s pregnancy, from......
I was pretty excited to make this milkshake, as I thought it would be a nice break from some of the more time-consuming recipes we’ve made over the last few weeks (i.e. Bananas Cake, Turtle Thumbprint Cookies) for Baked Sunday Mornings. What could possibly go wrong with a milkshake? Well, it turns out the milkshake......
This week was Gastropost’s 100th Mission, and to celebrate, we got to create our own mission! I was thinking back to the first few Missions I did back in the summer of 2012, and of course when my thoughts turn to summer treats, that means only one thing to me: S’MORES! For my S’mores mission......
One last popsicle to close out the summer y’all! And I think this might be my favourite one! They especially come in handy when you need to make a vegan treat for your co-worker’s birthday. Yep, I actually brought my popsicle molds to work, and froze these up in the office. We had a popsicle......
I thought the Slutty Brownie craze of 2012 ended with the birth of Jessica Simpson‘s little daughter, but lo and behold, she got pregnant again, and Gaby posted this pretty amazing Slutty Brownie Ice Cream cake back in the Spring. I was out on the cake idea (too hard to cut, won’t fit in my......
My friend Nicole came over for a belated birthday dinner a few weeks ago, and I thought this would be an excellent opportunity to further develop my ice cream skillz. I’m still learning about how it all works, and it looks like eggs are the wild card. All the recipes I’ve seen in the past......
See! I kept my promise! I vowed to make one ice pop before summer was over, and not only did I make some, but I made boozy ones at that! These popsicles are basically like a frozen watermelon mint margarita, and are so summery and refreshing. The best part is that even though it looks......
Last Monday I had to leave work early to go to the dentist, and on the drive home, I noticed a bunch of traffic lights weren’t working. Hmmm, strange. It wasn’t raining, and there was no thunder or lightening, so I just thought it was one of those random things. When I got home......
