where we create, eat, share, live
Good Saturday Evening, Blogosphere.. I’m sorry I’ve slowed down in my blogging, I’ve actually been quite busy.. and not taking the time to write – which is why we’ve been getting 2-3 recipes per blog post recently. Our church family welcomed a new baby girl this week, so I’ve been arranging meals for the family, …

Aha.. you thought you caught me in another typo, didn’t you? Nope… that title is on purpose.. read on to find out why. I’ve been much better at making good dinners, we’re not eating out, or eating too much processed foods. I have not been as proactive with my lunches. I’ve been waiting til I’m …
We received the most glorious Spring Sunshiney afternoon yesterday, and I knew it was coming, I worked hard to accomplish all my “To Do List” in the morning, including masking up and heading to the grocery store to get my mom’s and our groceries.

(the crocuses are having a very lovely Loonnnnnggg season) I spent some time flipping through my recipe books while having breakfast. I kept being drawn to recipes requiring ingredients that I didn’t have in the house. Typically i would make …

The house finches (red ones) are really coming into their Spring colour and the Doves.. well, they are hilarious bullies, …

Today’s blog is just about food. No lessons. No challenges. No birds… and ALMOST no flowers. A couple of days ago, I shared how we purchased extra dry goods, including dry chick peas. I cooked a cup of peas up a few days ago, and promised to make Hummus with them. I did that yesterday. …
It was grey and dismal this morning in Southern Ontario. I went for my half hour pre-breakfast walk, and for most of it, was all alone on the streets. It looks lonely, barren, forgotten, dirty.. grey. But as I walked.. i looked for signs of Spring. These lovely blue flowers that grow in the grass …
We had several perfectly over-ripe bananas sitting on the counter this morning. I don’t have my own recipe (yet) so I spent some time Pinteresting (that’s a verb, dontcha know?) banana bread recipes while enjoying my morning coffee.
