It’s no secret that I love desserts. I live in a household where we always want “something sweet” after dinner. Oftentimes a few m&m’s suffice but sometimes you want a pretty fantastic baked good. Luckily I live within walking distance of four great French bakeries aka patisseries and a bit of a […]
I love cookies. If I’m at Whole Foods or Pusateri’s chances are I’m buying a cookie. One of my favourite and easily accessible cookies is the White Chocolate and Macadamia Nut cookie from Subway, I could eat those ALL THE TIME.

Canadian Thanksgiving just passed and to keep with the seasonal tradition I decided to make a pumpkin pie. But this time around it wasn’t going to be any ordinary pie. I had a tub of mascarpone in the fridge courtesy of my uninspiring and wanted a way to use it up. After […]

What got me was the coconut. […]
So on Fried Chicken Day I decided to make biscuits too because fried chicken and biscuits go together like early Madonna and lace. I’m forever craving Cheddar Bay Biscuits from Red Lobster so I went on the hunt for something similar.
I ended up finding this recipe from the Barefoot […]
