I can see you shaking your head in shock, but it's true. This Chick is crushing on the euphemistically-dubbed Tube Steak. Beef frankfurters, polish kielbasa, bratwursts, and...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basLately I can't get enough of D.I.Y home projects. That's partly because being at home with a baby has made me a little obsessed with 'feathering my nest'. Everything needs to be stylish and organized or it just doesn't sit right. It's almost instinctual. In the early spring I cleaned my closet. Now I'm decorating.
This project is fun and easy to do. It should take you...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basSo, you're not exactly a cleverly crafty individual? Maybe you're arts and crafts track record is less than stellar. And yes, maybe your idea of DIY is opening the phone book and calling an interior decorating (because, hey, you did technically do that yourself, didn't you?). That's okay, because I have the perfect fool proof crafting ingredient: chalkboard paint.

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basOh, Cuisinart, be still my beating heart. My inner foodie nerd comes out when I look at Cuisinart products. Seriously, I stare for hours at the gleaming, colourful products and day dream about all the things I would make in them. This week, on my internet travels, I found this Cuisinart Classic Frozen Yogurt, Sorbet and Ice Cream Maker and oh my, I want one so bad.
I think everyone should own...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basHello chicks! The sun is shining, there's the smell of steak grilling on the barbie and you've got a cold drink in your hand. It's pretty much impossible to feel sad when you're at a summer BBQ. Inspired by this feeling, I've put together a guide with everything you need to put together your own fabulous and fun BBQ party.
Of course, when it comes to this type of soiree,...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basThis past Easter weekend, the sun was shining and I was feeling the spring weather. My family gathered together for our traditional Easter dinner and my mother, who is not usually the Martha Stewart type (unless she is reading this, which in that case I have to say that Martha Stewart actually calls her for advice), made these fabulous sour cherry and processo cocktails for everyone. It was the...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI've said this before but I am a big fan of Easter. Well, actually I am a big fan of Cadbury Creme Eggs but those come out at Easter which means, in turn, I am a very big fan of Easter. I love all the preparation that goes into Easter, the decorating, the food and of course, the chocolate! I rounded up some of the best, most creative ideas I could find for this Easter season, but the fabulous...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basEaster is one of my favourite holidays, I think it's because there is so much fun decorating and preparation that goes into it. There's the Easter dinner with the family to cook, the chocolate to buy and of course, the eggs to dye! No matter how old I get, this will forever be one of my favourite things. Recently, while browing the internet, I came across a neat little trick for a new way...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basThis is a naughty Easter(ish) drink I invented. Since the kiddies are going to be eating lots of chocolate this weekend, there should be something for the adults too. It was inspired by the Cottontail Punch in the Spring 2012 issue of Food and Drink (p.127), but that one called for butterscotch liqueur, which I don't like and there wasn't any chocolate. ...

The new season of Mad Men is upon us and with that in mind, I'm feeling particularly retro and I thought it was high time, I tried out a fancy, old school style cocktail! I'm channelling my inner Betty Draper for this drink and trying out a little something different. It's a bit more complicated than other cocktails (this ain't your regular old rum n' coke ladies) but...Continue Reading
