Crepes with Maple Glazed Apples
Crepes!! PANCAKE DAY!!! Whether you call it Shrove Tuesday, Pancake Day, Fat Tuesday, or something I’ve never heard of, the beautiful fact is this: any chance that you have to overindulge in maple syrup smothered, sugary, doughy goodness is the best kind of day. I grew up on a steady diet of pancakes, and spending my […]
Smoked Rosemary Garlic Beef Roast
Have you guys ever experienced something so awesome, so completely different than anything you’ve ever run into before, that it makes you rethink almost everything?

Spicy Pork & Kimchi Noodles
Noodles, thank you for everything you are. Today was a snow day in my part of the Canadian East coast. Do snow days exist where you live? Basically for us that meant that our city was shut down today. No going anyway. Crazy amount of snow, blowing wind, all that good stuff. AKA – comfy pants, […]

Lobster Gnocchi in Garlic Cream Sauce
Lobster & Christmas, I love you both. For some strange (and delicious) reason, lobster and Christmas just seem to be best friends for a lot of folks. Being a Maritimer, I have the good fortune of having access to the most succulent of crustaceans year round, at a fraction of the cost, and from basically […]
