The cake was light in texture and taste and not too sweet. I replaced the lemon juice that is commonly used in cheesecake recipe with calamansi lime juice instead. As calamansi limes is abundant in my neck of the woods.? There seemed to have lots of ...

? I love pound cake. It is a 'keep it simple' cake. You just need simple ingredients, such as fresh eggs, good butter and vanilla, and you will be rewarded with a fragrant loaf of goodness.? I added matcha to the mix and a fragrant, green loaf of goodness awaits me. I also love listening to food podcasts. Being a stay at home mum, I am always moving around the house doing something. Reading is not a good option for me especially when the kids were young. If I ever had time to sit down and read, ...

We are having a snow storm right now in Ottawa and that puts me in the Christmas spirit. It's my favorite time of the year because I get to spend time with my husband and three children. We all live busy lives and even though we get together during the year for Sunday meals, the holidays are extra special to us because we get to spend days together like the good old times. My children usually come home with their luggage and spend a couple days with us.

Creamy Caprese Quinoa Bake

Everyone loves quinoa, right? Wrong.For a very long time I regarded quinoa with a healthy dose of disdain, and believed that its only purpose on this earth was to be health food, not delicious, desirable food.Then, one day last month I was wandering around DC on an unseasonably frigid day trying to find some lunch, and on a whim I ordered a bowl of turkey chili served atop quinoa from a place near my office. It was shockingly delicious, so I acquiesced and said something that I rarely admit: I w...
