Easy Shakshouka
I cooked up some deliciously easy Shakshouka on my Instagram stories the other day and saved the recipe to my highlights, but I thought I would write it up and share the recipe here too for anyone who does not have Instagram.

A Rainy Afternoon Thrifting on South Main
It was yet another rainy fall Vancouver weekend. What’s different about the rain here versus in Ontario is that the people here are so accustomed to it raining almost all the time that it really doesn’t hinder their day’s plans. In fact, Vancouverites are so …
Thanksgiving Weekend on Vancouver Island
In my most recent co-op recruiting period I got hired by a Vancouver-based company to complete my third, and final, co-op term of my undergraduate degree. There was an option to work fully remotely from Ontario, or to move out west for a more hybrid working experience. Since my lease back in Ontario was up and I had nothing tying me down, I decided to take the opportunity to move out west for a couple months so that I could experience the West Coast in all its beauty and finally have a chance to work in an office – my previous two co-ops have been fully remote. By some luck my good friend Ali and I ended up getting hired by the same company, so we moved out west together after completing our first month of work online from Ontario.

A Weekend Hike in Lion’s Head Provincial Park
As the weeks until my departure for the West Coast become fewer, I have been trying to fit in lots of outdoor time to enjoy Ontario’s beautiful landscape before I trade in for the West Coast’s sights. This weekend my mom and I hopped in …
Roasted Beet Hummus
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 …
Grilled Summer Salad
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 enjoy delicious Ontario-grown produce. Continue reading Grilled Summer Salad
Wild Leek Sourdough Bread
If you follow along with me on instagram you’ll know that I have been really into the sourdough baking as of late. Bread, bagels, naan, brownies, cinnamon buns, crackers, hot cross buns, you name it, I’ve probably made a sourdough version of it.
Big Cozy Vibes Tahini Granola
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 …
Photo Journal No. 2: Florence + the Machine High as Hope Tour, 2019
As some of you may have realized, these photos are a couple years old. I was scrolling through my blog the other day reading through old posts and reminiscing on past adventures, one of which was my first experience seeing Florence + the Machine live in concert back in 2016. I don’t know about you, but since Covid started ruling our lives almost a year ago (how has it been a year?!) I started living vicariously through my old photos and memories to give me something to look forward to when life is able to resume. I realized that I never shared the photographs that I captured during my second experience seeing Florence live, so I invite you to take a walk down memory lane with me to the evening of May 26th, 2019. Continue reading Photo Journal No. 2: Florence + the Machine High as Hope Tour, 2019
DIY At Home Shawarma (aka Fake Lazeez)
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.
