I am just trying out a new look for the blog. I loved the last one, and how much I was able to move around, but I missed the sidebar where recipes could easily be found. So here we go, I will continue to tweak it over the next few weeks, I’m sure, but I am giving this theme a go!
Category Archives: Not a recipe
New Friend in the Kitchen
It was on sale. I’ve wanted one forever. My parents are amazing. I now want to bake all the time.
The new baby in my apartment. It juuuuust slides under the shelf.
A couple days off then back at it with a vengeance!
Who am I kidding, it'll be gone before Friday.
I had my final exam of my Masters yesterday and then a very brief visit with my parents who were down to get an MRI. Tomorrow I fly out to Fort McMurray to visit with my sister, her husband, and my adorable and squeezable nieces. I am going to spend the weekend teaching my sister, Kellie, how to taking pictures while cooking, how to do my rudimentary food styling and writing, and how to post to WordPress. Soon, both sisters will be active here and twice the recipes will be pouring in! We will be back to our regularly scheduled programming by next week! (This programming being recipes every two days with the likelyhood of extras on weekends)
In the meantime, enjoy this extra picture of that delicious beer bread… which I am making again tonight… because it is so tasty and I know my dude will appreciate having it to munch on while I’m away.
Not a recipe.
This blog is going to be largely recipes but I know that when big things happen in our lives they will eventually find their way here as well.
This post is about one of those big things.
I am in a wonderful program, getting my Master of Publishing, and I am part of a wonderful group, The Cohort. This group is made up of 17 beautiful women and one handsome fella. Recently, my father was diagnosed with a brain tumor, brain cancer. Not only has The Cohort helped me get through the last five months (letting me cry in our offices, supporting me when I have to miss class to help my parents at the hospital or at the airport, and being all-around awesome) but they have actively worked to make my life feel normal. Today I was presented with a card and a notice that this wonderful group of people donated $450 to the Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada. Just thinking about it makes me tear up. I am so touched.
Anyway. I love them all. The Cohort is amazing.
The power of The Cohort
