I have a feeling I’ll be making lots of muffins this month…we finally got a proper tin and they’re just so easy to put together for quick breakfasts. I’m thinking upcoming flavours might be pumpkin-cranberry, apple oatmeal, carrot pineapple, lemon with currants…y tant d’options. These are blueberry banana muffins (with pecans for good measure) […]
I find it important to go on long, solitary walks once in a while. Ashbridge’s Bay all the way! It’s incredibly peaceful there in the “off season”. Just me, a couple of familiies, and some solo dog-walkers. Oh the quiet landscape! I also walked through Kew Gardens which is always pleasant. And found a TINY […]

The recipe (from the Veganomicon) says: “Bring some happy-fun-time-pineapple-carrot joy to your dismal-grey-sad morning”, and that is precisely what I did. Rah rah! Some of my favourite muffin ingredients are shredded carrot, unsweetened coconut, craisins, and flaxseed, and these have alllll of them. Muffins are great because […]
For now, at least! I am proud to say I handed in all my term papers on time, and respected the page limit. It’ll be nice to take a little break for schoolwork and spend more time the kitchen, on the bike (provided precipation remains at a minimum), and like, actually going out once in […]
