DIY Mac n' Cheese Bar
The calendar finally cleared a little and we were able to gather our family for a belated birthday dinner for Jackson. Last weekend, everyone descended on our place for a feast of chips and guacamole, homemade sausage rolls, maple caramel popcorn, a mac n’ cheese bar, warm green bean salad, a...
These look GREAT Jan! Breakfast on the go!

Leftover (Steel-Cut) Oatmeal Muffins
Before we go too far into today's post, I want to thank you for your thoughts on microwaves and toaster ovens. You've all definitely convinced me that I'm on the right track, and now I just need to decide which brand/size I want to add to my kitchen. I can spend hours (and hours) researching t...
Jan - I had NO idea your blog broke :(((( I guessed you were manuscripting and that's why you missed a Friday post. Glad all is well - how scary!!!
You seem to be doing so well under all the stress. You're my hero!

I've Been Meaning to Tell You...
I don’t feel as though I have anything incredibly inspiring to say today, but I wanted to pop by to say a quick hello. It’s been uncharacteristically quiet around here for the past week because the blog was broken for five of the last seven days, so if you happened to try visiting and were war...
Wishing you the merriest of Christmases Jan and love and hugs to your family XO

Merry Christmas
Somehow it's been nearly a week since I popped by this place, and oh, what a week it has been. First, there was the flu, complete with aches and pains and headache that lasted for six days, followed by a party for 24 that was cooked for, then cancelled, due to an ice storm that hit our area. I...
Great list Jan :) My fave book of the year has to be Save with Jamie, simply for its "do-ability" factor. Others are definitely up there too.... So hard to choose just one!

My Favourite Cookbooks of 2013 (Giveaway)
This is in no way a comprehensive list of the best books of 2013. There were so many beautiful, informative, collections of recipes that hit booksellers’ shelves this past year that it would be impossible for me to cook from, and read, each of them. However, I was lucky enough to get my hands ...
Whoah - Canadians need a visa to enter Australia? Didn't realise! Your post is making me more and more excited for my trip back home this Christmas. Can't wait to get back to Zumbo!
(btw, am unable to comment using the regular comment form on your blog for some reason. Disappears every time. As do comments made with Google + Boo.)

Hello From Sydney!
I survived the long flight from Toronto to Chicago to San Francisco to Sydney without going stir-crazy! But I had my share of drama right at the beginning of the trip. At the airport check-in counter, the crew asked if I had my visa to enter Australia. It was a moment of utter panic as I did ...
OMG Candy this is awesome - thanks for sharing!

Picnic At Eleven Madison Park
My love for picnic is well documented at Dessert By Candy. Last weekend, I was treated to the ultimate picnic on my birthday at New York’s revered Eleven Madison Park. No, the restaurant is not offering takeout for parkgoers next door. I will explain that in a bit. On that sunny afternoon, M and...
Hope you feel 100% soon Candy. These photos are beautiful, btw...

Stuff It
If you remember my craving for tabouleh a couple of weeks ago, I’m happy to report that I finally got around to it. This week’s feature recipe for French Fridays with Dorie is tzatziki, the tangy creamy yogurt cucumber dip that is kissing cousin with raita. Except in lieu of taming the heat of ...
AWESOME finds. When I travel I am ALWAYS hauling back food stuffs!!!

Shopper Extraordinaire
I am always a little embarrassed about shopping when I travel. A close family friend once scoffed at his wife’s foreign shopping excursions. He insisted that it was worse than frivolous because there are sights to see, museums to take in, and cultures to experience. In his opinion, shopping in m...
I am absolutely in LOVE with this post Jan. I was BIG into Lego when I was little :)

DIY: Simple Lego Party Decor
My sweet boy turned 10 yesterday. For tenth birthdays we don't do parties, but instead I take the boys on a trip, just the two of us. When Ben hit his double-digit birthday we went to New York City for four days, and Jackson and I are now making plans to visit Washington, DC, in March when ...
Jan these are like all my favourite flavours in one bite. LOVE. Bookmarked!

Candied California Walnut, Pear and Aged Cheddar Cheese Dreams
When I worked in catering one of the most popular items on the cocktail menu was something we referred to as Cheese Dreams; bite-sized quarters of gourmet grilled cheeses stuffed with caramelized onions, bacon and cheddar. They were a party-goers food fantasy for late-night snacking, especial...
Love that you used goat gouda! And your pictures are beautiful!

The Importance Of Intrigue
Naming a dish is the toughest yet most crucial part about recipe writing. At the bare minimum, the name ought to accurately reflect the content of the dish without being too wordy. Ideally, it should intrigue the readers enough for them to read on. You want to take your readers on a culinary j...
My favourite part of the summer is the beginning, when school has just finished. So may possibilities ahead, so full of promise!

Cadbury's Bicycle Factory: A Giveaway
Keeping a stash of chocolate on hand is a summer must-do in our house because of our s'more infatuation. Thanks to the fire pit we purchased last year, our s'more making days are not relegated to camping trips and cottage visits only. A long bike ride followed by an evening of s'more making is j...
I am due to make some more granola this weekend and think I might try this. Looks amazing. Last batch I *nearly* used cried cherries but went with cranberries at the end of the day. I like the idea of cherries!

You know those movies that make you stop in your tracks? The ones that beckon you to stay up later than you should if the television happens to land on it just before bedtime. The movies that speak to you, striking a chord, so perfectly that you just have to stop what you're doing. I was ready...
Jennie, thanks so much for this thoughtful post. It is a quiet reminder that perseverance counts for much in this crazy crazy competitive world. I will be first in line for your book! Can't wait to see where 2011 takes you!

good night 2010
I pulled the curtains back after waking the girls last week, and happened upon this sight through their bedroom window. It was that moment after dawn, with the moon dipping into the horizon. A real-life variation on Margaret Wise Brown's childhood classic. I called the Mr. and girls, then ran ...
