Vegan Coconut Cupcakes
I caved. I let myself sink my teeth into warm cranberry scones slathered with mascarpone and apricot jam. And look what’s happened now- fuzzy head, my judgement’s all furry and not to mention the slightly ballooning tummy. Silly, silly and … Continue reading
Homemade Oreos
There are some things that I get obsessed with…and never stop being obsessed until I’ve had so much of it, I feel my knees buckle and my heart ceases to feel the flutter anymore…that is until I get reminded of … Continue reading
When Life Hands You Lemons…
Squeeze ‘em in people’s eyes! That’s what my little sister would wish she could do. It’s probably her favourite David & Goliath tee slogan. I, on the other hand, would bake lemon cake then use the remaining lemon ‘shell’ to … Continue reading

Amidst all the baking in preparation for the farmers’ market this Saturday, 6 March, I felt like I needed to be selfish and bake something for me. Not for sale, not for someone else’s consumption, for me (and my mom). … Continue reading
