Like so many other things in my foodie life, I had never heard of an Icebox Cake until I saw it on Smitten Kitchen a few years ago. The idea behind it is that you stack up chocolate wafer cookies with whipped cream, and let the whole thing set in the fridge overnight. The cookies......

The first half of this month revolved around researching and prepping for a long weekend trip to Atlanta (which I’ll write more about soon) and the second half was all about the weddings of two of my close friends. Here’s what I was up to in between: First of all, my beloved co-worker who is......

This post is WAY overdue, but I’ve recently had a few friends and co-workers ask me for New York bakery and restaurant recommendations, so it’s time to get this recap going! First a little background. My friend Lydia and I take a trip to New York City every five years. Our first trip was in......

Yesterday I celebrated the wedding of my dear friends Aoife & Brad at Vinelane Estates Winery in Niagara, Ontario. I brought home a bottle of red wine and whipped these up this afternoon because I knew they were on our Baked Sunday Mornings schedule. Ha! You guys know me better than that by now! In......

When Mother’s Day and Baked Sunday Morning collide, you know you’re in for a treat. Our recipe for this week was an Ultralemony Lemon Bundt Cake with Almond Glaze, and it was the perfect end to dinner with my Mom. The Baked boys sure love their bundt cakes, and they’re one of my favourite things......

Samosas are something that I always thought were best left to the pros. Two jobs ago, I had a lovely friend on my team that would bring me samosas and a trio of dipping sauces from her local Indian restaurant/bakery/store. She was the best, and those samosas were a joy in my life. She moved......

It’s Cinco de Mayo today, so it’s a perfect excuse to log this Frito Pie that I made a couple of months ago. Although who really needs an excuse to cover chili with corn chips and cheese and call it dinner? Certainly not me. I can’t think of where I first heard about Frito Pie,......

It was a fun, busy month on Planet Byn (as evidenced by the fact that it’s actually May 26th and I’m finally writing this). I kicked off the month in Florida, so first a bit on that, and then a recap of what else was going on: First of all, why are there so many......

When Spring rolls around, there are three ingredients that I automatically gravitate towards: carrot, lemon and coconut. My Easter dessert usually centres around one of those three things, although this year I was in Florida for Easter weekend, so didn’t have a chance to do any baking. Luckily, we had this magnificent Easter Coconut Sheet......

I’m super excited to share this quick and easy recipe today! *insert sound of record scratching here* APRIL FOOL’S! I can’t even keep up this charade as a joke. Let me take a minute to explain. On my 5th blog-iversary, a mean internet troll my brother left me a comment that said: “Meh. The continuing lack......
