Meatloaf is something I very rarely make – by rarely I mean twice in my life – and I have no explanation for this. Seriously, why don’t I make meatloaf more often? The last time I made meatloaf was when I made chicken loaf. I’ve finally realized that this kind of dish is incredibly versatile, [...]

Some days you just feel like your body can’t continue to hold and support all the day’s worries, late lunches, mistakes, and over-all fatigue. All you really want to do after work is curl up on the couch and watch re-runs of Family Guy. A few days ago at work, I volunteered to bake brownies [...]

I’ve started a distance learning program on writing. There are five classes in total and the official start date for these classes was on Friday. Because I decided to scamper off to a noisy campsite – Oastler Lake, a CN train goes by every couple hours even throughout the night – over the weekend, I [...]

I was browsing through TasteSpotting’s food porn the other day and I came across a picture of chocolate zucchini cake. I’d never made cake or bread with zucchini before and I was curious so I clicked on the photo owner’s blog link. I was happy to find the recipe (here) and I made a decision [...]

Maybe the dream described in my previous post had something to do with the party I’m going to tonight. I offered to make cookies for said party and I have just finished making them, 6 hours before the event is to take place. In real life, it seems, I’m on schedule! I love making chocolate [...]
