Once again we have more Autumn deliciousness for you! Something about Autumn just makes us want all the comfort food, all the baking, and all the hot dishes again. This recipe has a comfort feeling to it but is a little healthier than some comfort …
Colin experimented with this pumpkin butter and enjoys it for a variety of things. You can use it on toast, bagels or anywhere you would use jam or other spreads. You can also use it in these delicious pumpkin cinnamon buns which we would highly …
Like a lot of deliciously baked items on this blog, this one was dreamt up and produced by Colin. These pumpkin cinnamon buns were a definite win and while it takes a bit more effort than some recipes it is well worth the extra time. We took these to a recent BBQ supper for dessert and the guests couldn’t stop raving about them.

As autumn approaches, the menu in our home fills up with root vegetables, squash, and all things pumpkin. Typically, with seasonal desserts, we have more varieties that we want to try than what our appetites can accommodate so Trish and I jockey for menu space. I managed to squeeze this sugary recipe into the lineup, using a pumpkin butter I found last year.
The actual cinnamon roll and pumpkin butter aren’t excessively sweet, but pair nicely with the brown sugar butter frosting. The dough has a nice soft texture and a great pumpkin orange colour to boot! Though the pumpkin butter really completes these cinnamon rolls, you could stick with the traditional butter, sugar, and cinnamon filling if you choose.
Happy baking!

Recently, I had to take a salad to an event and since I had a very large patch of healthy, growing kale in my garden, I decided a kale salad would be a good choice. I ended up taking a mango kale salad with a …
Zucchini is one of those things that when it grows….it GROWS! If you know…you know! I happen to have two zucchini plants this year and I have been trying to find all kind of creative ways to use my abundance of zucchini. This zucchini boat …
We finally did it. We made famous TikTok feta pasta. In typical Trish fashion, I couldn’t do it exactly as written though and I added a few wonderful additions. This dish was super flavourful, delicious and easy! We will be making it again in our house for sure.
Another thing that was exciting about this recipe is, it was made with my first spinach and some baby kale from my very own garden. You can use either kale or spinach in this recipe or like I did, use both! If you want to make this meatless go ahead and remove the chicken.
Use whatever kind of pasta you choose. I chose to use penne this time and it worked great but a bowtie or spiral would work well too!
Also, feel free to adapt the amount of red pepper flakes to your taste.
Enjoy this recipe and let me know what you think of this baked feta pasta rendition!

Who knew that making this delicious, chewy maple syrup treat was so easy and quick? This is a fun thing to do with your family and a great stay at home activity.

The process for making snow taffy is quite simple. Find a patch of nice, fresh, clean snow and pack a large pan with it. The snow will last longer in a deeper cake pan, but a cookie sheet will do if necessary. Place the snow in a freezer until ready to use to keep it really cold.
In a saucepan, bring real golden maple syrup to a boil. Golden is the lightest of maple syrup grades. It has the smallest sugar crystals which produces smoother taffy. Sometimes the syrup foams excessively while boiling. Add a miniscule dab of butter or drop of oil to tame the frothing. Continue to boil the syrup until the temperature reaches 240°F on a candy thermometer.
Then, use a ladle to pour small ribbons of the syrup onto the snow. Stab the end of the ribbon with a popsicle stick or fork and wind the taffy up, then enjoy!
