So earlier this month I posted my Daring Cooks Challenge results and now it’s time for my first ever Daring Bakers challenge! I joined Daring Bakers because I like baking but I don’t often push myself to make things beyond my comfort zone (macaron-making excluded). This is a good way […]
While at the farmers market the other day I couldn’t resist some more fresh Ontario rhubarb and strawberries. Strawberries and rhubarb are a classic pairing so I figured I’d make some sort of dessert. My mind immediately went to pie and then to crumble. But then I went to Epicurious […]
