Mushroom, Spinach and Gouda Pork Loin RouladeThe other day I decided to make dinner instead of bake! Don't ask me why I had that crazy idea, but to tell you the truth it was probably all those endless summer-nights watching the food network that got me going. Anyways, I was rummaging through the deep freezer and came across this interesting hunk of meat, and unsure of what it… |

What to do during a heat wave??AAHHH!! Just managed to survive a 6-day heat wave with my sanity intact, but just barely. I actually took a girls-only trip to Whistler with a couple friends and the heat was so intense (reaching aroung 40C) that we actually saw a forest fire on the mountain!!! I can't believe that this is going to be the site of the 2010 Winter… |

Yay! Testing out the Oven at my CondoHOORAY! Today marks the day that I am living on my own! A little bit frightening, but a little bit exciting at the same time.

August Daring Bakers Challenge - Dobos TortaI know that I didn't get around to posting last month's daring bakers challenge, but the truth is I didn't get a chance to do much baking. But now that I'm getting settled into my new living quarters, and feeling more comfortable in my new kitchen I think the bakes will be coming a long much more smoothly. This month's daring bakers… |
