Happy Belated Thanksgiving you guys! I had a very relaxing long weekend, and my appetite returned just in time for me to feast. I wasn’t feeling so hot when I returned from my 48 hour anxiety attack, but I just took it easy last week and I was in fine form on Sunday night. My Mom’s turkey......
Updated with a new picture September 8, 2018 At certain times during the month of August, I found myself daydreaming about cinnamon, apples and pumpkin. Then I got an email from Starbucks about the return of the Pumpkin Spice Latte. Then I saw Halloween cards in Shoppers Drug Mart. I’m a HUGE fan of fall,......
Right now I’m sitting on my couch, waiting for Kristine’s sister Chi to come over for our second personal training session. These doughnuts are only part of the reason why. At the beginning of the month I took a quick trip out west to visit with my WCBFFs, and this basically turned into a 4 day......
Last month I told Kristine’s sister Mae that I would make her whatever treat she wanted for her birthday when I got back from my work trip. She said her most favourite thing I’ve ever made was the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cupcakes from last year....
In the Spring when I made Butterscotch Cream Pie again for Easter, I was reminiscing about a dessert Mom made when we were little that we called Skor Bar Dessert. Mom found the recipe for me (actual name: Toffee Bar Crunch Pie), and it’s made with vanilla instant pudding and a big ol’ tub of......
Yup, you know it, back with s’more s’mores! I’ve had these bookmarked since November and I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to make them, but I’m also glad I saved them for summer!...
Johnny Mac turned 6 last month, and although I tried to sway him one way (“Are you sure you don’t want Star Wars cookies again?”), he definitely had his own ideas about the treats he wanted (“Well, actually, Auntie Robyn, can’t you make some Marvel cookies?”). After learning my lesson with his sister’s magic wand......
It’s my mission this summer to make as many s’mores desserts in a variety of formats as I can. If you invite me to an event this summer, you can be sure I will arrive with a s’mores pie/cake/cookie/bar/pudding/ice cream/popsicle/doughnut. My ultimate goal for the end of August is to have a s’mores party with......
The human garbage disposal has left the building! Yes, it’s true, my co-worker Barry – the bottomless pit/treat monster – has moved on to another company. Luckily he’s only going to be about two blocks away, but still, it’s sad to see him go. In honour of his last week, I thought it would be fitting......
My niece Amy turned three at the end of May, and of course as soon as Matthew’s school bus cake was done, I started thinking about which treats I wanted to make for her princess party. Every pretty princess needs some pretty pink princess cupcakes, and this recipe from Smitten Kitchen was perfect. I’m......
