It’s Spring Break!!! Not really. When you’re a grown-up, there’s no travelling with your besties to exotic locations. Well, maybe there is, but not as often as I’d like! When I was in college, the only official spring break I went on was to Las Vegas. About 10 of us hopped on a plane from …
Where are my mango-lovers at? ThisIn this Rum Island Butter Recipe is for you. I love mangoes in smoothies, sorbets, and jams - but not by themselves. Does anyone else feel this way? I love it as an accompaniment to other flavours, but not alone. This recipe has mango, pineapple, and banana flavours, but each …
M&M is continuing our spring break theme: ALL THINGS PINEAPPLE. Yesterday, I posted a super easy No-Churn Pineapple Sorbet that is simple to make…and to die for! No ice cream maker needed. Today’s Malibu Rum Cupcakes recipe is a beautiful Frankenstein-type creation. Think of the combination: pineapple and jalapeno. Weird, right? That’s everyone’s reaction when …
Nothing screams spring break (or vacation) to me more than sitting in the sunshine and reading a book. It’s probably my favourite pastime! I love sitting on the beach or deck of a cruise ship with a good book. Even when we visited New Hampshire for a ski trip, I brought along three books - …
As I mentioned in my Iced Coffee Pops post, I know - it’s the winter. And I’m making popsicles. But spring is around the corner! Daylight savings time is here, and I can feel spring coming…slowly. With St. Patrick’s Day approaching, I wanted to do a series of recipes with naturally green foods. Yesterday, I …
A few months back, I made a delicious version of knockoff Nutella, filled with yummy ingredients like toasted hazelnuts, dates, and cocoa powder. That recipe is good, but I wanted to do better. What’s the difference between these two recipes? Well, the dates make the original recipe a little thicker and a little sweeter. This …
I’m not a huge fan of creamy alcoholic drinks, such as Bailey’s or Godiva Liqueur. It just tastes a little sketchy to me. When I make my own, however, it just reminds me of a delicious boozy smoothie. I looked at a few homemade recipes and decided to wing my own. Some elements were obvious …
The first time I had Irish Soda Bread, I think I was 10 years old. I remember it being dry and not very sweet. It left me with a “meh” feeling. This Irish Soda Bread Recipe is quite the opposite. By swapping the raisins for cherries, the fruit sweetens up the bread a little bit. …
I’m excited to share this Birthday Peanut Butter Cookie Cake Recipe with you! Over the last few months, I’ve shared several of my favourite homemade treats that I make for Clem. I made pupcakes for her birthday last year, peanut butter squirrel cookies, and apple cinnamon dog biscuits, just to name a few. You can …
Happy Earth Day! Are you a lover of green recipes? Many bloggers that I follow do a “What I Love Wednesday” post. Welp, seeing that it’s Earth Day and I have a few things to share with you, I figured that today is as good of a day as any! A brief history lesson: Earth …
