It’s Mother’s Day on Sunday! But you didn’t need a reminder, did you? Last year on Mother’s Day my family teamed up with another family we’re super close with for an epic Mother’s Day barbeque. We had gourmet burgers and a zillion burger toppings and salads and our mom’s stayed off their feet for the [...]

mostly whole wheat no knead pizza dough
Posted in baked goods, breads, breakfast recipes, mains, tagged cooking, food, no-knead, pizza, recipe on May 8, 2012 | 7 Comments »
Folks, I have a tried and true pizza dough recipe. One I’ve been using for years and years. One I know off by heart. One I know by smell and feel. One I know I can slide off of my peel and onto my stone and turn out a damn fine pizza. This? Isn’t it. [...]

You know all that whining I’ve been doing over having left all of our kitchen electronics behind and not having means to blend or puree anything? I’m mostly done. A little while ago I took the commuter train out to the boonies to hang with my friend Erin who was at home chilling out waiting for [...]
maple oat scones

I’m trying to give my cookbooks some love these days. I have a tendency to get side tracked by all the tasty looking food I see on the many amazing food blogs I subscribe to, and forget all about my cookbooks. I brought my favourites with me from Vancouver to Stockholm, and I’ve recently added [...]
egg quesadilla

This is a quickie. A quick post about a quick meal. This egg quesadilla is something that I make very often. I make it for a quick lunch. I make it for an easy dinner alongside a simple salad. I make it for a late morning weekend breakfast when I’m feeling the need for something [...]

When I woke up this morning it was -20 C. We always sleep with our bedroom window open a crack – it was freezing in our room! I dragged myself out from under the warmth of our duvet and went directly to the kitchen. Together we hammered out our packed lunches for the week; Paul [...]
home made bagels

Let’s make some bagels, can we? Yes we can! For starters, today is my birthday, and on my birthday we can do anything we want. We can eat cake for breakfast and bagels for lunch and because it’s my birthday the calories don’t count. Please remember that I have an actual degree in nutrition, so [...]
pannkakor

Remember back in May when I finally finished that nutrition degree I’d been working on for the better part of a decade? And then the very next day I hopped on an airplane and came to Sweden? That was quite something. I’ve applied for some nutrition related jobs since I’ve been back in Stockholm, and [...]
grilled corn and tomato frittata

For some reason I’ve been having a hellava time writing this post. It has been sitting open on my computer in various stages of constructed and deconstructedness for a week now, and for whatever reason I’m finding it impossible to get the words from my brain to tap into the keyboard and say what I [...]
cherry rye muffins

Recent weeks have seen me spending quite a lot of time wandering* around Lidingö, a rather affluent suburb of Stockholm where there are huge houses with million dollar views and magnificent sprawling yards. Most of these yards boast an assortment of fruit trees, many of which lean against the fence at the perimeter of the yard and arch [...]
