This milkweed will be a haven for bees and butterflies next summer. #wintergarden #patiogarden #milkweek #decembergarden #canadiangarden It might be a cold start to November, but I’m still nipping into the herb garden to add flavour to dinner. Like parsley, thyme and rosemary for a beef stew. #herbgarden #cookingwithherbs We may have had frost, but this blossom bravely opened anyway. #fallgarden #dahlias #sponsored See my review of the #FuelYourDay! Cookbook by @lamadamelabriski for energy-boosting, naturally sweetened treats. On the blog now, link in profile. Thanks to @appetite_randomhouse for the review copy. #cookbooks #cookbookreview #canadiancookbook Look what’s on the blog! Yes, a Black Forest Cake with some suggested hacks so it can be even easier to make. Recipe by @ricardocuisine. #blackforestcake #cakehacks #baking Helping hands ... my 9-year-old Little Miss was excited to help with the first bean harvest of this year.
