Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basMy Mom used to make these when I was a kid. My 3 siblings and I would help twist the dough and add the sprinkles or, if I'm being totally honest, fight with each other until they came out of the oven then stuff our faces. The recipe is from a neighbour but I've tweaked it a bit to avoid using artificial food colouring, which as you know, is the devil.
Ingredients:

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basMy Mother in law, Mercedes (alias Mechy) makes the most delicious cream puffs. When she came to visit for the weekend, she showed me how to make them. Unfortunately it's only been 24 hours and I've already inhaled at least 10, but there are no calories in food made from love, right?
Ingredients:
1 3.5 oz package of instant vanilla pudding mix (or you can make your own, you Martha...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basBlack Friday - so named because it's that magical day of the year when retailers go from a Loss on the balance sheet to a Gain ("back in the black" as they say) - is nearly upon us. Frenzied deal seekers are packing up their tents, hot mitts, and thermoses to settle in for predictably long waits outside the stores.

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI've had a total of 12 addresses over the past 10 years. Maybe 13... you kind of lose count when you get into double digits. I'm not an outlaw, I've just spent my college and post-grad years in a nomadic haze, with my meager belongings in a constant state of flux between a pilfered grocery store box and an overcrowded closet.
Now I'm staking claim to a plot of land in my hometown,...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basI'm no domestic goddess by any means, but I do love a good arts and crafts session. While searching for some Halloween décor ideas, I came across this very easy, quick, simple craft- so simple and easy that even I, clumsy as I am could recreate it- a great alternative for those who are 'pumpkin-carving challenged'. It's a great craft because it's so time efficient...

“Be good to yourself” – it’s a quote we hear often and one we sometimes use to justify a shoe shopping rampage treat or a last-minute trip to the Bahamas (fess up: you know what we’re talking about!).
Occasional mega splurges are one thing, but it’s taking little opportunities to pamper yourself regularly that can make an even bigger difference: extra whipped cream on your...

We recently renovated our en-suite bathroom from country granny kitsch (courtesy of the previous owners, not some unforgivable design choice on our part) to a clean spa-inspired space.
Had I the foresight, I would have taken a “before” picture to share with you, but at the time did not want to admit to our years-long procrastination on this situation and was only too happy to leave the...

Pour lire cet article en français, voir plus basThere is an event occuring every four months for the past three years that I dread to death. No matter how much I try to avoid this task by procrastinating, it always seems to creep up every three months and three weeks. This task is Moving.
As a student, and particularly being in a co-op work program, I have been moving from Toronto to Waterloo to Toronto to Waterloo each semester since my...
