From the monthly archives: January 2008
This blog has made me realize one thing: Apparently I have a lot of Giada love. It’s no secret that I like to watch “Everyday Italian”, but I hadn’t realized just how many of her dishes I make fairly regularly. This one is no exception.
I remember watching the episode where […]
I like the IDEA of Chicken Pot Pie but rarely the execution. A lot of the recipes call for soooo much chicken, which I guess for some people is a good thing but I’m not such a lover of poulet. I guess I could choose the Vegetable Pot Pie option but […]
For reasons unknown I grew up eating quiche. It’s not something my mom would ever make from scratch, not something I remember eating in restaurants, but a large part of my childhood was spent eating quiche. I vaguely remember eating frozen mini-quiches by Schneiders… but who knows where that comes from.

You win some. You lose some. And sometimes you can change the outcome if you plan ahead.
I was flipping through a recent issues of Everyday Food and came up this recipe for stuffed Acorn Squash. I liked the IDEA of this recipe. I love squash. I love wild rice. I love […]
Last year, in an effort to keep my Aeroplan account active I ordered a subscription to Canadian Living (something about a partnership between Aeroplan and Rogers Magazines). I figured I’d go for Canadian Living because they have recipes. Maybe not the BEST recipes, but recipes all the same. Every month I […]
I tend to go to the gym a lot which is made easier by the fact that all of the machines have TVs attached to them. 9 out of 10 times I end up watching The Food Network. I guess it’s the masochist in me. Running hard while watching Paula Deen […]
Sometimes you just want something totally simple that warms your heart. This pretty much does it for me! A few years ago (and by a few I’m thinking at least 4 years ago) I was on Dean’s Colloquium trip to Italy where we went to Venice, Verona and I […]
This a dinner party favourite for me. Simple, delicious and impressive. Always a winner. This also happens to be another Giada creation — I guess at some point I had a love affair with her first cookbook and can’t shake a few of her recipes.
This is also one […]
Because I’m a NUT I decided to prepare xmas dinner all by myself. Not SUCH a big deal since it was only for three people BUT I totally got into the idea of having a full spread out of a magazine. And that’s what I did… and for the record it […]
These bars aren’t new to me at all but have become part of my Christmas treat arsenal. For the past three years I’ve given these as a gift to my sister and she literally devours the entire tin every time.
I love that this combines two of my favourite desserts (coconut […]
