Sharing my random life is what I do best
I first made these, when I was preparing some weekly meals when I was pregnant with Wendy. I knew that she would make an appearance within a week and wanted to make sure I had some premade food in the fridge to make the transition from pregnant to mommy easier. Needless to say, these didn’t even last two days…Chris and I ate them all. It was okay though, these homemade pop tarts are easy to made and quick to whip up.Read More
So the other day I was having dinner with a close friend of mine when she mentioned how difficult it is to find something she could eat since she has so many allergies, especially to gluten. So that got me thinking, how could I change up my apple crisp recipe so my friend could enjoy a piece of fall heaven this season. After some experimenting, this gluten-free apple crisp was born, and it was well worth the effort. I actually enjoyed it more than my regular Apple Crisp recipe. Read More
There’s something so sweet and satisfying about the first bite of an apple crisp dessert. It just screams comfort to me and being that I’m a pretty anxious person who loves comfort food, it should come as no surprise to anyone that I have about 4 of these 2 serving apple crisps frozen in my freezer right now. These are the easier desserts to keep in your freezer. Whether you have some surprise guests come over or you’re expecting a little one, these freezer friendly apple crisps will make dessert time so much easier.
When it comes to Canadian treats, Nanaimo bars are definitely one of my family’s favourites. The three layers of deliciousness just melted in your mouth in the most satisfying way. Since we enjoy these bars so much, I thought I would try changing it up a bit. Present to you, Maple Bacon Nanaimo Bars. A yummy twist on a classic Canadian dessert. Read More

There are very few foods which are better than cheese and wine, especially when you are celebrating the season of parties and friendly get-togethers. I also know how impressive a good cheese board can be. For some reason, many people find them really complicated to put together. I know I felt that way once. At one point I didn’t even know what cheeses I should put on the board or even what board I should use. I really overthought this whole process. Then I stopped overthinking it and realized I had access to a pretty good source on cheese and deli boards, my mom. She used to work as a manager for a high-end grocery store in the deli and cheese department. She spent years recommending cheeses and meats and putting together beautiful cheese boards for some fancy people. So I asked her for some tips and advice on putting one together.Read More
