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 was so focused on my friend’s Wedding Cake for the first half of the month, and then recovering after it was over, that I really didn’t get up to much else. I do, however, have three pizza related items to discuss: We had TWO Pizza Club Book Clubs this month, since we missed the one......
I read somewhere that March is like the Tuesday afternoon of months, and it’s so true. I didn’t go to Florida this year like I usually do, so the month felt extra long and kind of blah. I did do a few fun food related things, so here we go: For our Book Club/Pizza Club......
Ah, nothing like a classic February hibernation month! It was a pretty quiet month, which was just what I needed: I went to check out the new Assembly Chef’s Hall with my friends from work. It’s essentially an elevated food court, with about a dozen stalls for some of Toronto’s best chefs. The whole thing......
Turns out that when you go away for Christmas and have to push a lot of stuff to the new year, you end up with a super busy January that does not allow for the usual hibernation. Here’s what was going on to kick off 2018: Jenny hosted her 2nd annual Christmas Cookie Exchange on......
This Christmas was very different for me as I flew the coop with my parents to Barbados to celebrate my Mom’s 70th Birthday, which was on Boxing Day! Here’s what I was up to before we left: Nicole and Francis came over for our annual Christmas baking day! A little challenging with a 1 1/2......
I feel like November is always a chill month for me; a great time to reset before things get crazy over the holidays. However, this year that was definitely not the case: I spent the first weekend of the month in Ottawa, visiting my friend Katy and her family. Katy picked me up from the......
October is usually my favourite month, but it fell in the rankings this year because I was knocked out with a bad cold for the first two weeks. There were a couple of super fun foodie events towards the end of the month to make up for it though: Thanksgiving was a bust for me......
September was more hot and humid than any of the summer months that just passed. It definitely wasn’t time for cozy fall baking or apple picking, but instead a two tiered Paw Patrol cake, and some other fun stuff: Kristine’s friends Justin and Masha asked me to make a Paw Patrol cake for their daughter’s 2nd......
The highlight of this month was a WILDERNESS ADVENTURE to Jasper for Danielle’s wedding! I spent a couple days in Edmonton too, so I have some recommendations to share, after I share what else was up this month: First of all, I followed Descendant Pizza on Instagram back in July and because I was their 6,000th follower,......
