I was so happy that this August was filled with delicious baking projects and I blogged about them all! I also went to a few new (to me) places that I loved. Here’s what was happening: My friend Heather is moving to Hamilton, so I spent a bit of time there early in the month......
Being sick in the summer sucks and I lost a whole sunny week to the plague at the beginning of the month, but I started to feel better just in time to work on two very special birthday cakes. Here’s all the foodie fun from July: First a quick shout out to Nexus Coffee Company......
June started off with my quick trip to LA, and followed up by the pure joy of a Raptors Championship and lots more fun! Here’s what was going on: After walking by it every weekday for the past couple of years, I finally went to the Union Summer Market with my friend Krishna. It’s a......
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......
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......
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......
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......
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......
This month was jammed packed with lots of different holiday activities at work, plus the usual Champagne & Cookies prep! Here’s what was going on: Our foundation-wide holiday party this year was at Assembly Chef’s Hall which was such a great venue for a Christmas party! This place is like a very fancy, hip food court, with a......
This month was a blur! There was a lot going on outside of the kitchen, plus two very special cake orders! Here’s what I was up to: Working outside of the Financial District is really cramping my ‘after-work drinks’ style, but I did get down there to try one new spot this month with Krishna......
