Back to blogging! The school year is winding down which is kind of crazy and kind of sad. While I’m super excited for my summer gig it will definitely be a bit of an adjustment getting back into working mode. It will NOT be an adjustment having no homework though. Hollllerrr!
Spring quarter […]
It’s officially winter in my neck of the woods but you wouldn’t know it taking a look at the temperatures and the general absence of snow. Trust me, I’m not mad at any of that. I like the idea of the seasons changing and the picturesque quality of freshly fallen snow, but when […]
My quest to “make things with chorizo” continues. The most recent Charcutepalooza Challenge was all about making sausage meat and I went the chorizo route. As mentioned in that post, I made chorizo tacos but of course have another pound or two of chorizo to use up so I’ve been […]

Living in Toronto where there aren’t many (good, authentic) opportunities for Mexican food I find myself either making my own feasts using Rick Bayless’ recipes or I just plan […]
In my latest quest to prepare a Mexican feast I opened up Rick Bayless’ . I wanted a recipe that would be meaty and last me a few days so that I could have lunches for a few days. A big piece of meat lends itself great to that […]
I’ve been having a craving for Mexican food as of late. It was likely spurred by my recent trip to Chicago where I dined at Rick Bayless’ Xoco twice. Toronto isn’t known for its Mexican food so when I have a craving I usually crack open my cookbooks.
I […]
I love fish tacos. Problem is, there aren’t that many places to get them in Toronto. Back when I lived in New York I used to have fish tacos for brunch at Dos Caminos Soho and they were great. Until one day they changed the batter to more of a breading […]
