a homage to adventure & plant-forward eating
With the unfortunate resurgence of winter weather we are currently experiencing here in Southern Ontario, I thought there would be no time like the present to share one of my favourite winter recipes, but who am I kidding? I make this hot chocolate recipe all …
I don’t know what it’s like where you all are, but it has been absolutely freezing here in Ontario the past few weeks. At this point in the season I seem to have a semi-permanent raspy voice from running outdoors in these crazy cold temperatures. …
I cannot believe that it is already September! Where did the summer go?! With the first week of September now behind us, I am sure that many of you have returned to school, work, and with that, busier schedules. This week I started my third (and final!) co-op term of my undergraduate degree. It’s hard to believe that I’m in my final year now, time has truly flown! I’ve definitely been experiencing information overload this week while settling into and navigating my new role, but I am very excited for this term. Continue reading Roasted Beet Hummus
Can we just take a minute to acknowledge how quickly this summer has flown by? How is it already August?! Crazy stuff! I’ve been trying to soak up the delicious flavours of summer before fall strikes and I have to wait another full year to …
As we push through (hopefully) the last of these chilly early-spring days, which are very reminiscent of winter, I’m finding myself really enjoying the simple comforts of curling up with a mug of tea, a good book, and my favourite granola. If I had to …
When I’m at school I love to get Shawarma from a chain called Lazeez. I discovered this glorious chain (which is conveniently located around the corner from my home!) last year and it’s been an epic love affair ever since. Continue reading DIY At Home Shawarma (aka Fake Lazeez)
Hello all! Disclaimer: I am fully aware that June is in full swing and that the weather is, on average, quite consistently hot at this point and this recipe may seem to be better suited for colder temperatures, but I’m here to tell ya that …
So, I have a kinda funny story for you all. Well, my life is all kind of a funny story, but this situation really takes the cake. Leading up to Christmas holidays I was experiencing discomfort in my lower jaw near the back of my …
With my personal week from hell now officially behind me, I am in a rather celebratory mood and what better way to celebrate than with cookies? For all those who are unaware, last week I had four midterms, which was already bad enough, but I also didn’t have any time to grocery shop because I was too busy studying for said midterms, I almost got hit by a car, and I basically just didn’t sleep. Sunday night after walking out of the last of my midterms I was an absolute dead woman. By the time that I got home I was so tired that I fell asleep with all my lights on while waiting for my laundry to be done. I can honestly say it was the worst week ever. But now it’s behind me and I have time to cook and enjoy my life again (yay!). Continue reading Cozy Oatmeal + Cranberry Cookies
Well, it’s finally starting to feel like fall and I don’t just mean because of the weather. At this point every one of my roommates (including myself) has been sick, midterms are getting ready to kick my ass and it gets dark before 8pm.
