a homage to adventure & plant-forward eating
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 …
I came up with this Chocolate Swirl Banana Bread quite some time ago, but I wanted to save it for the perfect occasion. Now that we’re well into November, I think it is fair to say that we could all use a little bit of …
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 for how long I’ve put off writing this post. Honestly, if I weren’t leaving on my next adventure in one week’s time, I probably would have put this off even longer.
I have decided to cover Linlithgow, Aberdeen, Inverness, and the Isle of Skye all in this one post because I was in all four places over a period of ten days, so I shouldn’t ramble on too long 😉 Continue reading Travelling in the Scottish Highlands (Aberdeen, Inverness, and Skye, oh my!)
Nothing says summer to me like fresh, local produce. I’ve grown vegetables for years and have always found it to be very rewarding as well as very fun. When I was a little kid living in Toronto, my best friend Jenny and I used to …
A few weeks before summer officially began, I sat down and wrote a bucket list of all the things that I wanted to (try to) do before September rolled around. One of the items on the list was berry picking. I have a couple of …
Not gonna lie, this was a really fun recipe to create. I got to combine three of my fav things: bread, grilled food, and za’atar spice blend! Woo! I’ve made this recipe before using spelt flour (which worked great), but I wanted to try to make a completely gluten free version for all my celiac and gluten intolerant peeps out there.

I have very fond childhood memories of my older sister, Emma, whipping up a batch of rice crispy squares after school, which we would then devour whilst watching The Ellen Show. Oh, to be 9 years old again.. But seriously, rice crispy squares are a classic treat.
‘Tis the season, for cold juices that is. With the past few days climbing up to the high twenties I’ve been a big fan of pressed juices. Buying fresh juice can be pretty pricey, which I find to be strange considering how, relatively, inexpensive it …
I’ve been under a lot of pressure to get this post up, so here goes! Shoutout to my good friend Riley for always reading and enjoying my travel posts, typos and all haha. This one’s for you Ri 😉
When I left off last, I was in York with my mom and sister (see A Stopover in York, England). After our 24 hour stay in York, we hopped on an early morning train to London where we spent the next seven days.
Since London has so much to see, this is probably going to be a rather long post, so fasten your seat belts and prepare yourselves for the ride. I hope you all enjoy! Continue reading A Week in London
Welcome back 🙂 Here is part two of my United Kingdom adventure! If you remember any of my little trip outline from the beginning of my Edinburgh post (it’s ok if you don’t) you’ll recall that we did a one night stopover in the charming …
