Last Valentine’s Day, I made Eric and I some killer Vegan Hot Chocolate. In fact, it was so good, I decided to call it Tall, Dark, and Handsome Hawt Chocolate… It is creamy. It is rich. It is the perfect hot drink at the peak of Winter when you are snowed in and bundled up [...]

For whatever reason, I have this burning desire to take otherwise ‘normal’ recipes and turn them into      spin-offs of my favourite desserts. Carrot Cake Oatmeal. Apple Pie Muffin Tops. Pumpkin Pie Monster. Zucchini Bread oatmeal. Oatmeal Cookie VOO. Pumpkin Pie VOO. Pecan Pie ‘Truffles’. You might call this weird, but I call it totally normal…as [...]

It is hard to believe that the 2-year anniversary of the Green Monster is coming up on January 20th! In January 2009, I felt a huge void in my life. I was unhappy with my career and I was often up late at night until 3 or 4 in the morning worrying about work. I [...]

Last week, I finally replenished my Almond Butter stash after being without it for a few months. I really don’t know how I survived that long! I actually need to start making my own again too. But the good news is, Almond Butter (crunchy, all-natural) is now back in my life and I can return [...]

I deemed that this week is officially my Get Back On Track Week! Over the past few weeks, my eating, exercise, and home life/work routines have been all over the place. Wait, who am I kidding, my life has been all over the place since September actually! My goal for the next few days is [...]

As winter sets in and my desire for a hot breakfast grows, I find myself searching for the perfect bowl of hot oatmeal. I’m pretty picky when it comes to hot oatmeal. If you have been reading the blog for a while now, you may remember that I used to dislike homemade hot oatmeal. There [...]

Happy first Saturday in December! :) Is your shopping done yet? I joke, I joke. ;) Please tell me your shopping is not done yet. I will shed jealous crocodile tears if it is. I have a couple quick announcements before I get into the post: 1) A huge thank you for your continued votes [...]

As you can see, my beverage of choice during Project Food Blog has become progressively stronger. Over the past few months, I went from being a devout Japanese Sencha tea drinker, to a French Press coffee drinker, and now I pour bourbon whiskey into my baked goods. ‘Tis the season. This year, I am preparing [...]

Well, my dear readers you have done it again. Thank you so much for voting for me in the Project Food Blog video challenge. I received the Reader’s Choice award. I can’t thank you enough for taking the time to vote for me each round. :) I was grateful that I moved on because I [...]

Good morning! Hope you are having a great start to your week. Well, my dinner recipe didn’t turn out exactly as I wanted it to last night, so that post will be coming up later. I just need to tweak it a bit more! It has been a while since I have done a breakfast [...]
