Brownies. We like them. We eat them a lot.
And we really like to find new brands. So we were more than happy to do jumpy claps in the isles of Whole Foods when we saw these.
I fell for the Better Batter packaging first. I’m not afraid to admit that I judge a brownie mix by [...]
I know a lot of people are wondering what I’m actually doing here. It’s obvious that I’m going to grad school, but what I’m studying still remains a mystery. Get ready because it’s about to be a mystery no more…
I’m doing an MA in Conflict Analysis and Resolution. It’s kind of awesome and I kind [...]
Husband and I lucked out. Without knowing it at the time, we rented an apartment that sits smack dab in the middle of two pizza points that have GF options. Pair that with the roof top pool and the McDonalds three blocks away and we live in a powder keg of sparklers and rockets!
The first [...]
I’ve been thinking about doing a pizza week for months. Husband and I are lucky to be located between two wonderful pizza places that serve GF. My only hesitation was my Canadian content – yes, I’m just like CBC! I don’t like to post if my Canadian readers can’t find useful information because let’s face [...]
It was my birthday this past weekend.
Hurray for me!
I knew going in to this birthday that things were going to be different. Not only am I living in a new apartment, I’m living in a new city, in a new country, with different people and new things. I was also completely aware that this would [...]
Oh tender morsels of sugar and chocolate and nuts and awesome. How I love thee.
CocoMira, Canada Post and my sister’s love of Chapters has changed my life – and maybe soon my waistline.
CocoMira, a Canadian company, makes these awesome toffee/chocolate combos. They come in Maple Crunch, Hazelnut Crunch, and Dark Chocolate Crunch. They are free [...]
It is with great sadness that I have to miss this year’s Stampede.
The funniest part about that statement is that I actually haven’t been to the Stampede in almost 3 years. Like most Calgarians who were born and raised in the “Heart of the New West”, I eventually came to a point where I associated [...]
Well Kids, it’s official, the longest day of the year is now behind us.
For some this is not that big of a deal. For Calgarians, this is depressing. Your weather has sucked and the sun seems to be illusive. And for that I am sorry for you. In this, your dark rainy hour, I offer [...]
Walking through the frozen section at the Harris Teeter I came across this colourful box with the word: Cheenies on the front.
The voice in my head: This has to be awesome. The box is cool, the name is cool, and it says that they love them in Brazil. I like Brazil. Never been to Brazil. [...]
Ever wondered how you could meet the local Fire Marshall AND be able to enjoy a sandwich while you were at it?
It’s as simple as baking you’re own bread.
Finding decently tasting, relatively affordable, GF bread has been a bit of a challenge. So in light of these challenges I went where I have gone before [...]
