And dessert: a towering angel food cake with local ever-bearing strawberries and whipped cream. No time for proper pics with 10 people waiting for their servings! #angelfoodcake #birthdaycakesimplicity #keepingitsimple This evening’s birthday dinner for my daughter was simple, but mighty good. Ribs, oven fries and coleslaw, plus an angel food cake with strawberries and whipped cream for dessert. Sometimes the simplest foods are the best expression of love. #bbqdinner #birthdaycelebration #familytimes #simplefoodgoodtimes #simpledinner I don’t do all the work around here. This 8-year-old just made my Sweet & Spicy BBQ Sauce practically on her own. I just prepped the garlic and ginger. Recipe on the blog! #cookingwithnana #modernscratchliving #innanaskitchen #bbq #bbqsauce Removing four racks of ribs from their spicy beer braising liquid. I’ll keep them in the fridge tonight, then lavish them with sauce on the BBQ tomorrow for my daughter’s birthday celebration. Worth a little extra steam and heat on this hot and humid day! (Search ‘ribs’ on the blog for the recipe.) #bbq #babybackribs #celebrationcooking It’s the way of nature that sometimes the elements defeat the most determined spirit. Still, there is beauty left behind. #beach #lakehuronbeach #butterfly My riotous late summer garden in the evening, with some new stars that don’t exactly twinkle but look pretty anyway. It’s cool enough now to sit out and knit in the waning light. #mygarden #patiogarden #gardendecor Worth the wait! @olive_et_gourmando #montreal #blueberrytart #maplepecanbrioche Looks like it’ll be worth the wait at @olive_et_gourmando in #Montreal. #oldport #cafe Old Port, Montreal. #montreal #oldportmontreal
