The Ultimate Dinner Platter
I did not plan on writing a recipe post this weekend, but I made such a fun and colourful dinner platter last night that it deserves a spot here because I’d love for you to try it. This aesthetic platter looks as though so much planning was put into it – but the opposite couldn’t…

Clementine and Pomegranate Salad with Honey and Halva
It has been too long since I posted a recipe here, and I’m excited to share this one with you. I recently made this fruit salad again, and it made my heart sing. The ingredients are in peak season right now, so I encourage you to try it out. I know, when you think of…

Cozy Charcuterie Board
One of the perks of living in the city is being walking distance from major event venues, which has been so nice to return to with everything reopening again this year. In our neighbourhood, The Royal Agricultural Winter Fair was happening this season, and we decided to check it out. This year’s fair was the…

Easter Brunch
We hosted family brunch for Easter this year, and it was so nice to be able to do that again. I hadn’t exercised that part of my brain in so long (since planning our wedding!) so it felt nice to plan a menu and put together a table setting. If you’re well-acquainted with my blog,…

Confectionary Treats from Kitten & The Bear
If you are a Toronto native, you know that Kitten & The Bear is the go-to place for homemade jam and scones. Pre-pandemic, this adorable family-run corner in Parkdale offered freshly baked scones, seasonal jams and intimate afternoon tea service.

Summer Picnics
As the world starts opening up again and we slowly integrate into a new post-pandemic lifestyle (which is yet to really be seen), there is one thing that I truly enjoyed during the spring and summer edition of quarantine life. Picnics. Even before we were all forced indoors, picnics are stamped as some of my…

Cranberry Orange Loaf
What better way to wrap up 2020 than with a loaf recipe. Loaves of all kinds (special shoutout to banana) have been the people’s choice of homemade baked goods of 2020. In fact, statistically speaking, my Earl Grey Yogurt Cake recipe was a huge hit when I published it in March 2020. As we enter…

These cookies are perfect for Fall, Thanksgiving, Halloween, or for curling under a blanket with Netflix. This recipe has a such a cozy spice…

How I Meal Prep
I have most definitely gained some of that “Quarantine Fifteen”. Stress eating, the sudden abundance of homemade bread, and more drastically in my case, not being as active as I used to be, all contributed to the formation of a rounder abdominal pouch that I was not happy to welcome back. Many of you will…

Creamy Lemon Squares
In this post, I’m going to pretend that there is no pandemic. This isn’t a pantry hack or a “what can you bake with 3 ingredients” quarantine edition. This is simply a fun, easy, summery dessert recipe. The long weekend being the official kick-off of summer inspired me to bake something bright, fresh and light.…
