a few of my favourite things… {May 2011}
Doesn’t that just put a smile on your face? That’s one of Ada’s latest master pieces. One of my favourites. We’ve had a little bit of a strange week around here, lots of runny noses, sore throats and sleepless nights. On top of that my cooking has been completely off (can I blame that on […]
miso-curry butternut squash with tofu + cavolo nero recipe
Few people have made an impression on my life lately as much has Heidi Swanson.

carrot & red lentil soup with minted eggplant recipe
With autumn finally creeping in here, I’ve been feeling the urge to start cooking warm comfort food once more. For a minute there, as the droplets of sweat ran down my back for yet another day, it felt like the intense heat of summer was never going to end. Family and friends back home kept […]
