Creativity is Not a Hobby; it's a Way of Life!
We have a longstanding tradition in our family of having pancakes on Christmas morning. After all, they are my daughter’s favorite! Usually, we make them in the shape of reindeer (with bacon antlers). This year, I thought I’d make some fun Christmas tree pancakes to go along with them! When I was growing up, we […]
This is another French Canadian specialty from my childhood growing up in Montreal! Cretons de Quebec is a sort of pork pate served most commonly as a spread for toast at breakfast. Personally, I think it has an acquired taste and I never saw the need to acquire it. My sister, however, LOVES the stuff! […]

When I was little, I had the same Easter basket year after year. It was pretty, old fashioned looking and well, a tradition. Then one year I was at my sister’s house for Easter and of course, my basket wasn’t there. So, my sister made me a basket. You don’t know how big a deal […]
Aren’t these unicorn cookies just the cutest? They’re such a fun idea and really easy to make. The base of these cookies are Nutter Butters so even if you’re not a baker, you can make these adorable treats for your family. The unicorn craze is still going strong. I’ve always been a big fan of […]
Wow! Can you believe it’s the last week of March already? And being Monday, that means it’s time for another Why Don’t You. Inspired by one of my favorite blogs Brocante Home (who was in turn inspired by a feature in Harper’s Bazaar written by Diana Vreeland), Why Don’t You is a week’s worth of ideas for adding a […]
I have spring fever. Or something. Spring craving? I find it easier to get through the winter because it’s winter and I know what to expect from it, than I do from these days of will it feel like spring? Will winter have an encore? Sigh. All I know is, I’m yearning for some days […]
