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 My hats off to people who make intricately braided pies. This ultra basic attempt was time consuming! But worth it. #pielatticework #belgiankermistarte #baking #myheritagerecipes #heritagerecipes #tarte Coffee? ☕️ Today’s transformation in the kitchen. I’m not done arranging the shelves and I need to hang something over the old phone outlet (remember those?), but I’m so pleased with the added prettiness and functionality. 🧡 And, those rustic shelves totally match the cottagey vibe of my home. 🧡And yes, isn’t life beauty full? #decor #homebarista #coffeestation #homecoffeestation #kitchendecor #coffee #cappuccino #comingrightup #urbancottagelife Banana bread, fresh from the oven. This is why you want to help me move furniture. #baking #bakingasthanks #modernscratchliving It may be the end of October, but when I brush past this on my way through the garden gate I smell lavender. What a welcome home. #gardening #patiogarden #lavender #octoberincanada Today is cold, raining and dreary, but it’s warm and cozy in here. #baking #muffins #comfortbaking It was rather exciting to vote today, knowing the eyes of the nation are on London as we use the first ranked ballot system in a municipal election. And now for the results! (And yes, exercising my franchise calls for a cappuccino from @black_walnut_bakery_cafe !) #exerciseyourfranchise #londonvotes #rankedballot #cappuccino #ontariomunicipalelections
