Wildflowers along a northern road ... #wildflowers #northernontario No place I’d rather wait for a ferry ... Tobermory, enroute to Manitoulin Island and beyond. #chicheemaun #tobermory #beautifulontario Sleepovers inevitably mean my chocolate buckwheat pancakes for breakfast. This 4-year-old just helped make the batter and pronounced it “saucy.” Here’s the recipe: https://urbancottagelife.com/chocolate-buckwheat-pancakes/ #pancakes #breakfast #cookingwithkids CASO station, St Thomas, Ontario. An important part of Canada’s railway history. #stthomasontario #casostation Who wouldn’t be tempted by the ultimate cheesecake recipe collection, with 30 recipes from Canadian food bloggers? Courtesy of @foodbloggersca, the link is: http://bit.ly/cheesecakeFBC. #cheesecake Black bean sweet potato cakes, anyone? One of my readers said she experienced a gastric orgasm when she read about these. I had to go back to double check what I’d written! See what the fuss is about on the blog (link in profile). #blackbeans #sweetpotato #legumecakes Listening to renditions of Hallelujah this morning and feelings are running deep. Ever in awe of @officialleonardcohen’s magnificent artistry. #leonardcohen #kdlang #montreal #hallelujahleonardcohen A cool, grey Monday morning and leftover Chocolate Buckwheat Pancake batter in the fridge calls for brunch! And it’s another chance to use my new #lodgecastiron pan from @jillstable. Loving how the pancakes cook up on it! This may be my most popular recipe with the family — I’m required to make these pancakes for every sleepover, lol. Recipe on the blog. #pancakes #castironcooking Thanks to all the egg producers out there, bringing us quality, nutritious eggs. I’m a proud egg farmer’s daughter, and I #getcracking every day! Check out easy Baked Eggs on the blog. Each little ramekin is like a treasure hunt ... perfect for Easter brunch! #putaneggonit #eggfarmersofcanada #eggfarmersofontario #burnbraefarms #conestogaeggs #eggs #bakedeggs #ovenbakedeggs
