Random Thoughts And Other Things – 3

I would like to start by saying that I'm sorry for being late with the flyer review. Last week was one of those weeks where I had all of my days mixed up. I would tell you why but it would definitely gross you all out! And embarrass the crap out of me! HAHAHA...embarrass the … Continue reading Random Thoughts And Other Things – 3

Weekly Flyer Review – Groceries

Today I'm not going to rattle on about all the ways that you can save money while grocery shopping. I have already told you to get a PC Plus points card at Loblaws. You know that you can download Flipp to your phones so you can show the clerk at Loblaws the flyers from other … Continue reading Weekly Flyer Review – Groceries

Easy Basil Pesto

There is something about cooking with simple, flavourful ingredients that makes any dish taste so good! I loved making my own pesto for that very reason. You can buy pesto in pretty much any grocery store out there but why would you since it is such an easy recipe? Especially if you grow your own … Continue reading Easy Basil Pesto

Nutty Seed Bread

A week or two ago I found a recipe for a nut and seed bread filled with banana, orange juice and, if I am not mistaken, chocolate. I emailed the recipe to some family and friends because it looked not only healthy but also yummy! I'll provide a link for that recipe at the end … Continue reading Nutty Seed Bread

Weekly Flyer Review – Groceries

Last week one of my followers commented about the "sale" price of Bick's pickles and I wanted to take a moment to address it. Walmart - and Loblaws - often advertise products that are the regular price. It is very sneaky of them because you think that you're getting a deal but you really aren't. … Continue reading Weekly Flyer Review – Groceries

Brown Butter Babies

Every Christmas my Aunt Paul goes on a baking extravaganza! It starts around early October when she bakes her fruitcakes which will then be "watered" - more like boozed lol - regularly until it's time to gift them to their new homes. And get the lucky person eating it completely snookered! lol My Aunt also … Continue reading Brown Butter Babies

Random Thoughts And Other Things – 2

Do any of you watch HGTV? I may - MAY - have a slight addiction to watching the channel. In fact, my TV is usually left on it. It really just provides background noise so that I don't have to listen to the daily, and nightly sounds of hospital living. I will admit that I … Continue reading Random Thoughts And Other Things – 2

Weekly Flyer Review – Groceries

Last week I went on and on about the long weekend, how I hate that places raise prices before the long weekend and wishing everyone a safe long weekend... Why, WHY didn't anyone tell me that the long weekend was NOT last weekend but THIS coming weekend?! See what happens when you live in a … Continue reading Weekly Flyer Review – Groceries

Aunt Sue’s Chocolate Mayo Cake

I have a confession about this recipe. I have never had this cake because, HELLO - mayo in my cake! I mean - EWWWWWW! Right? Apparently I'm wrong about that because this cake is my cousin Shawn's favourite. Plus, my Aunt Paul says that she has had it and it's really moist and tasty. Let's … Continue reading Aunt Sue’s Chocolate Mayo Cake

Easy Tex-Mex Taco Dip

You are going to thank me for this dip! You really are, I swear. I would make this easy dip every time we were celebrating something. The grass growing in the Spring counts, right? lol I have a little secret about this dip. I could, literally, eat this dip with a spoon because it's THAT … Continue reading Easy Tex-Mex Taco Dip
