I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again: I love fall picnics! They’re so “Donna Hay – Seasons cookbook” (remember that one? I lost my shit when it came out).

Plum Infused Old Fashioned
I’m on a plum wave, yo. I feel the window of opportunity with plums is quite narrow, so we gotta pack as many goodies as possible while they last. Also, plums happen to be very handsome and photograph so well (I mean, who am I kidding, I probably just come up with recipe so that […]
The Concord Parfait: Roasted Concord Grapes, Vanilla Bean Ice Cream, and Walnut Praline (Vegan)

Here in Vancouver our laws were made back in the 1800 and time has stand still since then, so we can’t drink in public and we cannot have “open […]
Roasted Artichoke and Cauliflower with Creamy Harissa Dip
Oh boy, I’ve been harissa’ing the crap out of my food right now. Once I open that little can of spicy Moroccan heaven I can’t stop smearing it on everything. This time though, I took the smoky factor up a notch by roasting a bunch of cauliflower and artichokes with z’atar and lemon, then dipped […]
