I had some of my bridesmaids over for a lovely tea cocktail party, and we of course needed nibblies. The morning of the party, I was preparing all of my dips, spreads, gluten-free crackers, and cocktail ingredients. I then hopped in the shower and had a brainwave! I had mini bell peppers in the fridge, […]
I’m still savouring the wonderful Thanksgiving dinner we had Sunday evening. The food, the company, it was all just perfect. I proclaimed this morning that we should celebrate American Thanksgiving as well, just so we can do it again next month. Michael did such a wonderful job as our host. We all had individual place […]
I can officially thank Vegan MoFo for one of my favourite dinners ever. I wanted to post a recipe today, so I was inspired to pull together a bunch of stuff into my fridge into a meal. And it worked so well. Usually I take a bunch of leftovers, and put them in a tortilla […]
The lovely Ash and I were getting together today for some much deserved tea time and a celebration — and as such I totally needed to make celebratory mini muffins. Or “Celebration Muffs” as we are now calling them. I went with banana nut as my flavour of the day, as I had some bananas […]

Also, my twitter peeps were asking for the recipe, so I had to hook you all up. More on Indian travel, food & recipes coming soon! Happy long weekend, happy Easter, happy Sunday! […]
Sundays to me are a perfect baking day. You get a baked treat for one of your meals or snacks, and you have leftovers for the rest of the week. There’s nothing like waking up on a dreary & rainy Monday morning and having homemade muffins waiting for you. These are savoury muffins, and a […]
When the weather starts to get that Fall chill, I want pumpkin. And porridge. So I put the two together. And it is perfect.
My dear friend Louise posted a Pumpkin Smoothie on her blog, and I needed one too! Seriously, it’s like pumpkin pie in a glass. And it will fill you up.
I have a confession to make: I’m a vegetarian and I don’t eat salad. Well, let me rephrase that: I don’t eat much salad. I’m not a huge fan of greens, and I’d rather eat cooked veggies or raw ones straight up. I don’t even keep salad dressing in the house, unless I’ve got leftovers […]
