The thing about being away from home is that every once in a while I start missing me some Canadian stuff. The other week I posted on Facebook that I was craving poutine, tourtiere, coffee crisps and butter tarts. And boy was I ever! I pretty much wanted to eat all […]
For the uninitiated, this summer was dubbed my “summer of funemployment”. As you may recall I started at Kellogg for my MBA this fall but officially stopped working on June 14th to be able to enjoy my summer. It occurred to me that this is probably the first summer that […]
Remember when I used to make macarons? I haven’t made them in AGES. In fact, the last batch that I made were the ones pictured above and that was literally a year ago. I’ve spent the past year with the intention of writing a post about these macarons but I never […]
So this poor little blog has been a bit abandoned as of late. Why? Because B-School is crazy. And by crazy I mean super busy, super fun and A LOT of work. I’ve learned so much over the past three months both in the class room and outside of the classroom. I came […]
When I was in London a few months back I decided to hit Pierre Herme for a macaron fix. I usually hit up the Pierre Herme at Selfridges but this time around decided to find the actual boutique in Knightsbridge (who am I kidding, I totally visited the one at […]
Ok folks, it’s that time of year again… RHUBARB SEASON! I’ve been hearing reports of people buying rhubarb for the past few weeks and I finally got around to grabbing a pound of the stuff while on a recent market trip.

An event based around butter is certainly a […]
I’m not sure what switch has been flicked in my brain but recently dessert has been a big deal for me. Sure, I’ve always been a dessert kind of gal but I’d usually be happy enough settling for a few squares of chocolate, an apple pie from McDonald’s (my kryptonite) or a cookie […]
For this trip I decided to do something a bit different and signed up for a cooking class. I know a few people that have done this on their vacation and highly recommended it. What I really wanted was to sign up for an intermediate or advanced pastry class but I couldn’t find one […]
I don’t know about you, but I’m trying to hold on to the last bits of summer. This summer wasn’t any better or worse than any other summer. Sure, I had a wonderful vacation to London and Berlin. I even took another week off to do a yoga retreat at Kripalu […]
