These croissants are pretty much the most decadent sandwich recipe of all time. Most sandwiches? Butter, fillings, sauces, cheese…they’re freaking great. Let’s not make any bones about that. ALL SANDWICHES are great. My dream in this life might be…
Excuse me, while I shrink myself down to Honey I Shrunk The Kids-size and then make myself a bed out of this pudding. There is something about the smell of this thing, with it’s subtle spices, buttery base and…
I promised myself I would try and get through this whole post without mention ‘chestnuts roasting on an open fire’, but here we are in the first paragraph and I’ve already done it. Well, now that’s out of the…
Hey, what’s up? OH NOTHING, JUST PIE. Said no-one ever. Because pie is a big deal. There is no such thing as ‘just’ pie. Pie is major-league. And coming just behind apple pie in the lexicon of great pies,…
First thing’s first (I’m the realest), I know you were probably expecting a Street Food Monday post! Fear not, my friend, for they will be back. But just until the end of the year, I’ve decided to go bonkers…
This is the third and final post in my Sunday Snack Attack series, sponsored by Healtheries! You might remember that mega crunchy Grilled Cheese with Pickles, or the gorgeous, silky Hummus with Crudites from a few weeks ago? Well,…
OK, so I know that this is basically the only time of the year that roast potatoes are a hard sell. I get it; Thanksgiving is a time for Mashed Potatoes. And trust me, I understan. I once campaigned…
Full disclosure, roast carrots are my favourite roast vegetable. They might even be my favourite vegetable FULL STOP. There is just something about the way a carrot responds to the dry heat of an oven, becoming so sweet and…
This is the one. The one we’ve all been waiting for. This is my absolute favourite way to eat Brussels Sprouts, and that includes this incredible dish that my sister makes with brussels and bacon and maple syrup. …
ROLLS! I am not the first person to say this, and I doubt I will be the last, but dammit if bread is not the most important of all the thanksgiving sides. And that bread? It’s gotta be a…
It’s redder than red, it’s sweet and it’s tart, it’s choc-full of bursting cranberries and it’s indispensible on any table that’s holding a Turkey. It’s Cranberry Sauce time! Why is this my Basic Bitch Cranberry Sauce? If you…
GOOD NEWS EVERYONE! Thanksgiving is coming up! As a totally non-American person (like, not even close to even the continent of America) I freaking love Thanksgiving. Is it any surprise that I’m all about it? It’s an entire feast…
Hey-oh! Welcome to New York baby! Tell me something…do you ever read a blog to kind of vicariously live in a cool city? I’m on a major New York bender at the moment, people. I’m reading ALLLLL about the…
Frosted window panes, candles gleaming inside, painted candy canes on the tree…Santa’s on his way, he’s filled his sleigh with things, things for you and me. YEP it’s Holiday time everyone! And I’m diving in head first this…
This is a very special cake, for a very special lady, Jessica Merchant of How Sweet It Is! Through the wicked organisational skills of the lovely Bev of Bev Cooks and Ashley of Edible Perspective we, the Invisible Internet…
Ahhh, the Cubano, AKA the Cuban Sandwich, AKA the Cuban mix, AKA the Mixto, AKA the Medianoche. Medianoche is easily the coolest of all the names, not only because it rolls off the tongue so pleasantly, but because it’s…
It’s Halloween! Full disclosure: we don’t really have Halloween in Australia. It’s a very new thing for us, and only in recent years has the insistent desire of teenagers to dress up and get drunk finally brought the holiday…
Scone time! Scones are so underrated. They are the hard-worker of the pastry world. They’ll carry any flavour, you can knock them up in no time, they’re pretty hard to screw up, and when they’re fresh and warm out…
It was only a matter of time before we got to the Poutine. Why now? Because I totally missed Canadian thanksgiving! And I love all my Canadian homies. In fact, I would like some more Canadian homies. I feel…
It’s time for another Sunday Snack Attack sponsored by Healtheries! The inspiration word for this post was Nibbles, because I get the nibbles all the time, you guys. Because of my work, I am constantly taking little bites of…
Are you tired of having to choose between brownies and cinnamon buns? Because I sure as heck was…until today. Indecisive pastry-choosers rejoice! For the agony of our indecision is over! I give you, the Pecan Brownie Bun! Yup,…
