I finally did it. I finally succumbed. I don’t mean that I decided to throw caution to the wind and use all of my savings to fill my no-pets-allowed rental apartment with puppies of all shapes and size. Puppies as far as the eye can see!

I know that I tend to describe many of the treats I create as splendiferously delicious and belonging to the little bejeweled box in my mind labelled “my favourite things”. In case you’re wondering, here are a few other things currently living in that sparkly box: The shows I periodically rewatch every few years: SeaChange, [...]

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 [...]

Remember last post, when I mentioned having new raw vegan truffle recipes to share with you? Shazaam! I ain’t no recipe-tease, folks. I deliver. I deliver deliciousness. Or, at the very least, I deliver what I personally think is delicious, and what my mum thinks is delicious, and what my mum’s yoga friends (Hi Andy!) [...]
