DSC_0940

It’s been cold and rainy and very “fall” like around here and I wanted to make some comfort food for dinner the other night.  This recipe comes from the mom of a childhood friend of mine; I actually had to call my mom to get it because I’d lost my copy and nothing that . . . → Read More: What’s for dinner – Tuna Noodle Casserole

Rowan has started solids now and she enjoys food far more than her sister did at this age so I’m doing my best to come up with healthy and tasty recipes for her in the hopes that she will be a less picky eater.  I’m at our local Loblaws at least once a week as . . . → Read More: HUGGIES® Baby and You events at Loblaws (giveaway)

What’s for dinner – homemade buns

DSC_0569-1

We usually eat something with the buns, but I could easily make an entire meal out of them!  With Thanksgiving just around the corner, I made a double batch yesterday so that I could have enough to take to both of the family dinners that we’ll be going to, plus a few left for . . . → Read More: What’s for dinner – homemade buns

My husband made some cornbread a few years ago and still talks about how good it was…except that for the life of him, he can’t remember where the recipe was from.  He was very happy when I came across this recipe the other day and decided to make it last night.

This past weekend, we hosted our very first Christmas for my husband’s family.  This is the first time in six years that we’ve been in the same province as our family for the holidays and we were so excited to have everyone to our home and to prepare a traditional Christmas dinner!

Like many of my favourite recipes, this one came from my good friend Joleen.  I’m not sure where she got it from, but I’m very glad she shared it!  This Sassy Turkey Soup is easy enough to make after work (as long as you’ve precooked your turkey), and it’s a different spin turkey soup . . . → Read More: What’s for Dinner – Sassy Turkey Soup

Ok, technically it’s what’s for lunch, but the chili was dinner last night. The baked potatoe was an impulse buy when I was grocery shopping at Farm Boy yesterday. This is my chili recipe, which is basically an amalgamation of my mom’s chili, my aunt’s chili, and what my husband and I added along . . . → Read More: What’s for dinner – Chili

My husband has had a subscription to GQ for years and we get the best recipes from it!  He tried out the blistered corn the other day and I’m not sure we’ll ever cook corn any other way again.  So tasty and super easy, especially if you already have the grill on!

Like many of you, I’m planning our Easter dinner menu. It’s just going to be the three of us, so it’s nothing fancy, but it’s nice to have an excuse to make something a little different from our normal meals. So far, I know we’re having ham steaks, salad, and this incredibly yummysweet . . . → Read More: What’s for (Easter) Dinner ~ Sweet Potato Casserole
