I'm a magician. Did you know? I make magic in the kitchen. I not only make delicious food, but I also transform your everyday snack into something extraordinary. Allow me to demonstrate. Watch closely. I'm good. I took this seemingly plain and obviously delicious chocolate cupcake recipe and transformed it into ice cream! A light...

I'm in an honest sort of mood so I think it's about time I confessed a few things. I have never used unsalted butter in any recipe though most of the recipes I've posted on here call for it. I'll tell you a little secret about butter. If the recipe calls for salt then you...

There's something to be said about chocolate. But triple chocolate? That leaves me speechless. We need to invent some new words or something. Supercalafra-delicious. Expialid-ohyeah. That works, but it's still lacking somehow. They're just stupid delicious people. Trust me. Funny how the English language tends to fall flat like that sometimes. It just fails to...

I baked you a cake. A Blueberry Boy Bait Bundt Cake with Lemon Blueberry Glaze. Try to say that ten times fast. I love blueberries not just for their adorable smallness, their violet blue hue and explosion of sweetness. Blueberries also hold a special place in my heart right there next to jars of buttons,...

One of the happiest childhood memories that I have is licking the beaters whenever I helped my Mom in the kitchen. Whether it was cookie dough or brownie batter or icing, licking the beaters was always the best part about baking at that young age. It's that little preview of the treat you're helping to...

I lost my 3/4 measuring cup along with my mind. I frantically tore the kitchen apart searching for it. The measuring cup, that is. Although, had I lost my mind, I would probably search the kitchen for it as well since that's where it usually resides. The thought of having to use the 1/4 measuring...

Have you ever been personally judged by your ice cream choice? You probably have. You know how it is. Vanilla is safe, innocent, naive, uncomplicated and unimaginative. Chocolate is daring, adventurous, mysterious, spontaneous and creative. You might have had someone look at you funny when you order a vanilla milkshake or give you a wink...

I have a habit. The bad kind. Early in the morning I browse through the magical land of food blogs before I've even eaten breakfast. I would not recommend this. It's like grocery shopping on an empty stomach. I have to make this. And that. Ooohh this looks good. I could eat a whole vat...

I've just discovered browned butter. Oh. My. God. Why haven't I been browning butter all along? Seriously. I've been missing out. I think I'm a little ashamed of myself actually. I'm going to vow to make everything with browned butter from now on. It's my new favourite thing. If you haven't grasped what I'm so...

I danced in my kitchen today. Have you ever done that? I highly recommend it. It's quite liberating. I've actually done a great many things in the kitchen. I've cried. I've screamed. I've drawn blood. I've broken stuff. I've burned myself. I've threatened food. Seriously, I wish I were kidding. You know, the usual. But...
