I am a late-comer to discovering the joys of frangipane, which is a traditional European tart filling that falls somewhere between marzipan and custard. That it is thickened and set with ground nuts rather than flour makes it ideal for people avoiding refined carbohydrates; it only needs to have the sweetener reduced and partially or totally changed to an…
I’ve made this three times in the last couple of weeks. The first time I had no intention of posting it – it was so plain and basic. But I enjoyed it a lot, and wanted to make it again, so I decided to make it and post it. Unfortunatly, that effort turned out to be on one of…

Before COVID-19 hit last year, Ontario loosened its rules for dogs on patios, following in the steps of other provinces, who have historically been more lax on where our furry friends can hang…
This is a very traditional soup, in poblano growing areas. Ontario is not a traditional poblano growing area, but things change. They certainly can be grown here, and every so often you luck out and find some at the grocery. Or else you grow them yourself, which is what we did. They are a really delicious chile, with a…
The first time I made this, we weren’t too impressed with it, so there leftovers. The leftovers, on the other hand, were amazing!
