Salted Caramel Dream Bars

Salted Caramel Dream Bars

A few months back I was at Shoppers Drug Mart with some friends and made the happy discovery that my all-time favourite dark chocolate was on sale. Usually I can deter myself from buying chocolate simply because it is so damn expensive, but it was

Not a word of a lie, this recipe helped me get through finals. Finals are a very strange time of the year, since you no longer have classes it feels like you have more time than you know what to do with, but also not 

Buffalo Cauliflower Salad + Vegan Cool Lime Ranch Dressing

Buffalo Cauliflower Salad + Vegan Cool Lime Ranch Dressing

At the moment I have a little  bit of time off before I start work for the summer. That means that I have time to create some fun new recipes and other posts to share here! Yay! I spent my evening last night scrolling through Pinterest, as one does, and found lots of wonderful inspiration. I also have a ridiculously long list of recipes I want to create or recreate taking up a significant portion of my journal. While I was on my little Pinterest binger I pinned a ton of recipes by one of my favourite food writers, Laura Wright, of The First Mess. She had some pretty epic recipes focused around cauliflower, which is what inspired me to create this.

On-the-Go Greens Scramble

On-the-Go Greens Scramble

Now a days it’s all about ease and convenience. I can definitely relate. This semester has been a total whirlwind of assignments, midterms, exams, and a little bit of fun too, making it difficult to find spare time to do anything for myself. One commitment

At times my life tends to be a little bit disorganized and chaotic, but I try my best to keep my sh*t in order. When I have a bit of free time, which is hardly ever, I try to organize myself to make the days 

Reflecting On My Year Off

Reflecting On My Year Off

As 2019 begins and my second semester of university kicks into full gear I would like to take a moment to reflect on the year that I have had. I can easily say that this past year was the most challenging one of my life thus far. Sure, taking a year off came with a lot of opportunities, but it also came with a lot of setbacks. This is not an easy topic for me to write about, but I feel that it’s necessary and that to not write this all down would be a disservice to myself and to the year that I have had.

Curried Sweet Potato + Celeriac Soup

With Christmas behind us now we are getting into the less nice part of winter – a.k.a every day of winter after Christmas – and the need for coziness is at its peak. At school I like to cook in big batches so  I don’t 

Nine Days in Paris

Nine Days in Paris

Growing up, Paris is one of those cities that you see all the time in the movies. Movies, shows and social media paint a beautiful image of the city, so it’s pretty surreal when you actually arrive there and see it for yourself. It’s kind of like

Chocolate Swirl Banana Bread with Walnuts + Life Updates

Hi Friends! I Know that it has been quite some time since I last wrote.. I’ve been completely swamped by the workload that accompanies first year university. I have really missed writing and creating, so I decided to take my study break tonight to write up a new (and super YUM) recipe. But first, a little update about my life recently.

Travelling in the Scottish Highlands (Aberdeen, Inverness, and Skye, oh my!)

Travelling in the Scottish Highlands (Aberdeen, Inverness, and Skye, oh my!)

Alas, we have (finally) reached the last leg of my Scottish journey. I know it has been a while, so let me refresh your memory. When I last wrote of my travels, I shared with you all my wonderful week in London. I do apologize
