This is a really great warm weather salad that’s fresh, filling, and packed with flavour. There’s a little Vietnamese place Dan and I like to go to in Minneapolis called Jasmine Deli whic...
Hello friends! I’ve been traveling out of state this week for work so haven’t had much time for cooking and sharing with you guys. I’m looking forward to the long weekend (it’...
I adore nut butter. I was introduced to the classic pb&j while I studied abroad in Austin. When I was backpacking in Australia two Americans suggested having nut butter spread on toast with slice...
We’ve had some absolutely stunning weather here in Minneapolis over the past week. It makes me utterly giddy. I hope you’re in for some good weather and fun times this weekend. I have gra...
Is it safe to claim the title of Queen of Lemon Cakes yet? I think my love of lemony cakes has been well established and I hope I’ve turned a few of you onto to the magic that is citrus-y baked...
This granola is everything I love about granola: big chunks of nuts and gooey, chewy dried fruit, alongside smaller, easy-to-chew oats and seeds all bound up in a deep, rich honey coating and toasted...
My lovelies, what are you up to this weekend? I’m hoping for some quality time with a great friend as well as some delicious tacos from one of our favourite places in town. Hope you have a fun ...
Today I wanted to share a healthy, simple lunch idea with you guys: baked quinoa and millet patties. They taste so good inside a warmed pita bread alongside a simple salad with lemony vinaigrette. I ...
Happy Friday! What do you have up your sleeve for the weekend? We’re having friends over for lunch tomorrow and I’m excited to make some delicious food for us all. Sunday is the May Day P...
There’s a story behind that photograph. It was taken by my friend Tiffany who was filming me for a class project she had. So that person there sifting in the stripes? That’s me. We spent ...
This cake is a simple English treat – lemony but not overly so, nor too sweet, and perfect with some thick compote or a dollop of lemon curd on top. I spent several hours on Friday night baking...
Welcome to the weekend! What will you be up to? Any grand cooking plans? I’m participating in a Blogger Bake Sale to benefit Share our Strength‘s No Child Hungry campaign. If you live in ...
All of a sudden the price of a bunch of asparagus plummets from its mind-boggling heights of $7/pound and I am *there* in a flash, hoarding it for dishes like this glorious beast. Oh and this too. Th...
I’m one of those slightly irritating people that gets pretty darn excited around this time of year because all of a sudden my beloved citrus is fading and – oh! look! asparagus! rhubarb! ...
Hi! I’ve been out of town most of this week, working in Michigan. It was a wonderful trip but it’s safe to say that I’m utterly exhausted. I hope you have some fun plans this weeken...
This dipping sauce is incredible. Thank you Ottolenghi for yet another stellar recipe. The man knows no bounds. It’s a simple combination of crème fraîche with diced lemongrass, fresh ginger, l...
This is a rich, decadent and super simple dessert. I made it for my book club girls last week and it took all of 10 minutes to prep and 25 minutes to bake – you can’t get anymore low key ...
Happy Friday! What does the weekend hold in store for you? It’s been a busy, fun week of get-togethers, theatre-goings, and chopping all my hair off (!), and the weekend promises to be just as ...
If you’ve been reading my blog a while you might know that Austin, Texas has a special place in my heart. It’s where I experienced America for the very first time as a student; it’s...
Let me just lay on the line that it’s not easy to get an attractive picture of this dish. I’ve tried on about three different occasions. Hopefully you can see the beauty that I see in thi...
Crispy, salted chocolate cookies with a thick smear of Nutella sandwiched between them. I don’t mind if I do. Do you bake? Some of you must as I’m sure you come here to look at recipes bu...
Loves, how has your week been? Do you have fun plans for the weekend? I have not one, but two brunches planned with friends and a fun dinner out with an out-of-town friend. We’re going to Pizze...
This is the second recipe this week that I’ve adapted from Kim Boyce’s Good to the Grain: Baking with Whole-Grain Flours. I am completely and utterly inspired and smitten. The list on my ...
This might be my new go-to cookie recipe. Dan gets a bit cross whenever I suggest anything other than the Original Toll House cookie recipe and I have to agree to an extent – when making simple...
We’re heading out of town for the weekend and I plan on doing some solid relaxing while we’re gone. I hope you get to do the same. Perhaps you’ll pour a generous glass of wine (or t...
I’m going out on a limb to claim that what you see before you is not just really good, but in fact, the best homemade bolognese I’ve ever had. I have back-up in the form of a husband who ...
This salad is a rather lovely idea for a lunch in the lately-tropical Minneapolis. I don’t know what’s going on but I’m not complaining. We’ve had the mildest winter since I m...
First things first, thank you to all of you who left a comment or wrote me an email in response to Monday’s post on getting back in the swing of things. It seems I am not alone in feeling the w...
Cream tea is one of those quintessentially English things that people find so crushingly charming about the U.K. Many a visitor to our fair isles latches onto this tradition as a must-do activity. Pl...
Hello. I don’t know if you reading this right now are someone who visits this space often or hardly at all. Perhaps it’s your first time. Someone out there reading probably recognises tha...
