And finally he ended up opening a kitchen store in Ottawa and it was super successful, and he passed it on to my mum. So, my mum took over when he was older, and I grew up in my mum’s store. So, I would help her sell stuff, I would help her place merchandise, she would sh...
Now that we’re well into the post-vegan-month period, I think some changes have staying power; when cooking a quick weeknight meal, I used to reach for eggs as an easy protein, and now I reach for tofu or chickpeas instead (I’ll save the eggs for the good stuff). This past week...
Luscious, silky, maple-infused custard topped with a crackling layer of caramelized sugar, Maple Crème Brûlée is the stuff dreams are made of. (Skip to recipe)The last part of our little Canadian holiday took us to Québec City. See Part One and Part Two of our trip for more photos...

Sadly, even for a Quebecer (as much as we love the stuff). I know too many families who can’t afford to enjoy this treat with a family often. Or if they buy it, they will enjoy it in it’s simplest form and drizzle it over pancakes carefully. I’ve been in that situation a ...
And finally, finally I was convinced that my cupcakes were fitting enough to bear the “root beer float” title. The only thing I forgot to do was take them with me to any of the barbecues I went to this weekend; they’re all hanging out in my freezer, looking cute andgetting stared...
I couldn’t resist them at our local market and then fretted over how to use them so they’d actually be featured and not just in with a mess of stuff. Second–not to be a total kitchen novice, but I am–does this hash reheat? I need to bring a “side” to Mother’s Day and...
