Innovative Low Carb, Gluten-Free Recipes
I have to confess, I am not that much of a tea drinker. Don’t me wrong, I like tea, I like it a lot. But when it comes to my hot drink for the morning, I am a coffee drinker, through and through. I consider tea a midday or afternoon drink. The problem is, any [...]
Growing up in Canada, I was a part of that rite of passage common for little girls in North America. I was a Brownie, and then I was a Girl Guide. Yes, I said “Guide” and not “Scout”, because that’s what we called it up there in the great white north. Apart from the name, [...]
I think I might just have the pickiest eater in the world. And not only is she picky, but what she will actually deign to eat changes day to day. One day, she will gobble something up and you breath a sigh of relief, thinking you’ve found a food she actually likes. The very next [...]
I like to think of myself as pretty green, but I am fully aware that there is a lot of room for improvement. I certainly do the basics, like recycling, composting and conserving energy and water, and I am committed to trying to do more whenever I can. I even purchased cloth diapers for my [...]

It’s been pretty hard to resist temptation and I have to confess, I’ve had a nibble here and there. Nothing too out of control, so I’ve managed to keep my [...]
I read a lot of food blogs. And by that, I mean I read a LOT of food blogs. I already read quite a few as it was, and then I joined Twitter. I resisted joining Twitter for a long time because I knew exactly what would happen – that I would read even more [...]
The Christmas baking has commenced! I believe this truly is my favourite time of year, the lead up to Christmas and of course, Christmas itself. No matter how old I get, there is still something magical about these few weeks, the excited preparation of food and presents, the chill of winter setting in, the hint [...]
