Get your January juice on! @foodbloggersca shares 7 snazzy juicing recipes from Canadian food bloggers (yours truly included). See the post here: http://bit.ly/juiceFBC. #juicing #canadianfoodbloggers A favourite among the soup recipes I’ve created. I made a pot tonight and enjoyed an extra big helping. Swipe to see what’s cooling in the fridge now ... another 8 or 9 meals! Link to blog in profile — look for Turkey, Cabbage & Squash Soup with Fennel Seeds. #soup #turkeysoup #makeaheadmeals #canadianfoodblogger #fbcigers #soupdesigner Pomegranate arils for a festive touch to this evening’s salad. #pomegranate #pomegranatearils #pomegranateseeds Santa came by early and put lots of goodies into these stockings for tomorrow’s family gathering. Yes, there are 12 stockings there ... I’m blessed beyond measure. Who knew make-ahead mashed potatoes could look so glamorous? I’ll finish cooling them on the tray in the fridge, then store them covered until Saturday’s dinner. And that potato cooking water is for the gravy base I made and froze on Monday. #makeahead #mashedpotatoes My favourite fella came by to keep me company today. #mysonsdog In the holiday baking mood? If you’re not, these recipes for cakes and breads from Canadian food bloggers will have you getting out your baking supplies! Via @foodbloggersca. Check it out on their site: www.foodbloggersofcanada.com. #holidaybaking #christmasbaking #baking It’s beginning to look a lot like ... children’s delight, family times, peaceful evenings in soft light, carols and hymns, and the spirit of giving ... Christmas. #christmasdecorations #chrisymastree #christmassleigh So I’ve made two traditional Belgian desserts for my aunt’s 80th birthday party today. More later ... now I have to make myself look as good as the treats, lol. #baking #belgianbaking
