Well, the first birthday has come and gone, and my computer is finally working again, so I thought I’d share what I did for the birthday cake. In the end I decided not to do anything too fancy since we found out with a pre-birthday cake that the little man doesn’t really actually like cake too much…. I made up ... Read More »
This recipe has been around for a long time, and has been on Pinterest in various versions. As far as I can tell, one of the orignal recipes was from this post from Smashedpeasnadcarrots.blogspot.com. Because it is no-bake, you can put any combination of ingredients in it, as long as you have the peanut butter/nut butter and honey to stick it ... Read More »
Our family loves pancakes, and every now and then we even have them for supper instead of breakfast. My problem, though, was finding a good recipe each time. If I used a decent one once, I forgot where it was or which one it was. But when I found this one on Allrecipes.com, I made a point to bookmark it and ... Read More »
I’m gearing up for my son’s first birthday this week (February 22!) and while we’re not throwing a party for him (if he had little cousins in the area, or at least some grandparents nearby, I’d make more of an effort, but really, he’s a year old – as long as we get some pics of him with his cake ...

Ever since I was little, it’s been a tradition to have homemade pizza on the weekend. I always remember my mom saying that she enjoyed having one meal where no one complained.

So, yesterday I turned to my all-time favourite, AllRecipes.com, and found this recipe for Too Much Chocolate Cake. Looked easy – a doctored box cake. It has an average rating of ... Read More »
I’ve never been a big fan of anything in the squash family. But my sister (and co-author of this blog) made spaghetti squash for me once when I was eating gluten-free. It was really good, especially how she made it. She told me the basic gist of the recipe, and I made it for supper tonight. It was a big hit, ... Read More »
If you’re at home with some little ones for lunch tomorrow, why not make it a little more special? Even Grilled Cheese & Ketchup can be made a little more special! Any other ideas? Read More »
I’ve always loved eating freshly baked muffins on Sunday mornings, and I was lucky enough to have a mom who often baked tasty muffins before church. This morning, I decided to make muffins of my own – but, not having my mom’s apple cinnamon muffin recipe on hand, I headed to (where else?) Pinterest to find a recipe. I came ... Read More »
Every year when the free-movie pass cereals come out, I just have to buy a few boxes – pay for breakfast, get a night out for free! Who can resist? However, this year for some silly reason, the Cheerios I usually like to buy, the Apple Cinnamon and the Honey Nut, have the free Child movie passes while the Chocolate-flavoured ... Read More »
