As I was editing the above and below photos of the Banana All-Bran Muffins I recently made for my Dad, I started to feel strangely emotional. Mind you, I wasn’t getting teary over the muffins themselves. Sure, they’re deliciously soft-yet-hearty-and-healthy treats packed with fibrelicious All-Bran Fibre Toppers and sweet ripe bananas, but they’re not quite [...]

I have of late, but wherefore I know not, lost all my granola mirth. Don’t get me wrong; I still adore my Spiced Fig, Pepita, and Molasses Granola of Your Dreams, my Jewelled Cranberry and Coconut Granola, and my hyperbolically-best-ever Maple Tahini Coconut Granola. Last weekend, though, I didn’t want to make any of those [...]

When the going gets tough, the tough get hiking. Also known as: I have a new favourite part of my day. Also known as: The Black Legging Wild Maidens Have Adventures.

As a Gemini, I apparently have the right to change my mind at a moment’s notice. I can suddenly enjoy something I’ve previously disliked. For example: yoghurt. In my defense, I still detest the majority of yoghurts available in supermarkets (thin-runny-mucus-like-gloopy-overly-sweetened travesties). I once found myself lured by a Fat-Free No Sugar Cheesecake-Flavoured yoghurt, and [...]

There isn’t an easy way to describe the fear that hits when you’re trapped in a wobbly seat with a tense-looking man and woman peering intently at your face and you hear the woman exclaim in sharp horror: “Something’s happening to her skin!” Happening. Present continuous tense. Something dreadful is happening to your skin. Combining [...]

As I write this, it’s raining raining lightning hailing raining cool-breeze-beautiful-blue-flashes crackling crashing storming outside and I want to run out my door and spin around in the wind and lift my head back and woop and twirl holding hands with my brother while performing a made-up Madcap Helter Pelter Skelter Rain Dance together just [...]

I know that my posts of late have been rather verbose (by the by, thank you so much for your incredible responses to yesterday’s post). As a result, I’ll try keep to today’s short-and-sweet for you. 1. This vegan Maple Coconut Tahini Granola is quite possibly the best granola I’ve ever made (although I’ll always [...]

For most of my life, my maternal grandparents have lived up the road from me. It’s been utterly wonderful to be able to walk to their place for a chat, a cup of tea, a hug, and/or a game of 500 or Cribbage. However, I also experienced many magical times with my grandparents before they [...]
