Forgive me.
I have been so busy in the kitchen whipping up concoctions, testing new recipes and baking up delicious creations that I haven't had a chance to write in my blog.
I'm not sure when I'll be up and running again. Hopefully soon!
Have a sweet day,

Lá Fhéile Pádraig - Happy St Patrick's Day!
When your partner is Irish, you quickly learn to love all things Irish - food, music, Guinness and the colour green.
I have spent many a St Paddy's Day in an Irish pub: Dublin with co-workers, Lisbon with my cousins, Brussels with my Irish friend Laura and of course, Toronto. Since I was a child, on March 17th, I don some green in honour of the special day. And since being with my Irish lad, David, I cook some Irish fare.
Whether you're Irish or not, the collection of recipes below will bring out the Irish in you! Oh the Irish... a welcoming, fun and jovial lot. And even if it's just for that one day a year, we're all Irish in our hearts.
Slainte!

May your day be touched
by a bit of Irish luck,
brightened by a song in your heart,
and warmed by the smiles
of the people you love.

Pink Tarty Long-stalked Rhubarb!
This past weekend I checked on the 12 rhubarb plants in my Dad's garden. There were big luscious leaves with pretty pink and crimson tinted stalks almost ready for their first harvest. Of course, my Mom always has first pick for her much-craved strawberry rhubarb pie, making its annual seasonal debut on the May 2-4 weekend. But once the first pie is baked, it's time to get busy with some other rhubarb recipes. Here are a few of my picks...
Have a sweet day!

Let's Celebrate Spring with Maple Syrup!
On March 20th at 12:57 pm EDT, Spring will officially arrive. Ahhhh Spring! Even though there is still snow on the ground, the hope of spring, warmer weather and more sunshine has me craving some seasonal treats - Maple Syrup! When I was a little girl, Spring meant my birthday was just around the corner and that a visit to the Sugar Bush was on the schedule. I have gathered 20 recipes, all containing maple syrup, to celebrate the season.
Happy Spring!
