The Best Six Bucks I Ever Spent… and Pineapple Fried Rice

June 19, 2013 by Cayla 2 Comments

A few months ago, I went to the Baking and Sweets show and spotted this odd-looking contraption: A pineapple slicer/corer.  For six bucks. Would it work?  For six bucks, I was willing to give it a try. It worked.  Awesomely.  Like, life-changely good.  No longer would I be subjected to choosing … [Read more...]

Toronto Tastes Great!

Water, water everywhere nor any a drop to drink. "Water, water everywhere nor any a drop to drink." The above is a quote by poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge about a sailor being stuck in the middle of the ocean on a raft.

June 3, 2013 by Cayla 5 Comments

When the warm weather finally hit last weekend, I was more than ready to swap my jeans for jean shorts, swap my hot tea for iced, and swap my crock pot for my ice cream maker.   In fact I was pretty much ready to swap out everything that reminded me of winter.

What’s Fresh at the Farmer’s Market: Asparagus

June 3, 2013 by Cayla 4 Comments

Last week a friend remarked that, as a working mom who cooks dinner (almost) every night, I must be a super-organized person.  That I must be the sort of woman who meticulously plans out my weekly meals and then, using a list that is both alphabetized and organized by grocery aisle, set out to do my … [Read more...]

May 5, 2013 by Cayla Leave a Comment

Last weekend, I was treated to the Girlfriends Getaway package at Horseshoe Resort in Ontario's Muskoka region.  On my drive up there, my mind wandered to all of the exciting events we had planned: a yoga class, massage, facial, and time to relax in the pool and hot tub.  But you know what I was … [Read more...]
