    Photos: Moose

    A Moose! Two of them! In my backyard! So unbelievably awesome! Moose This happened on Sunday – yesterday – and just the day before I finished a photography course at a local university on how to use my camera in manual – like do everything in manual. Perfection – Pressure. Those are the two things I felt. Nothing like a little pressure, or an 800lbs momma moose in your face to make all of your knowledge come back so you can get a great shot.…

    Recipe: Natural Red Velvet Cake

    It’s Valentine’s Day tomorrow! Perfect time for a natural red velvet cake – and it’s naturally coloured, not with a whole bottle of chemical food colouring – yuck. What’s the secret? Beets!

Ingredients 3 cups of cake flour 2 1/2 tablespoons of cocoa powder 1 teaspoon of kosher salt 2 teaspoons of baking powder 1 cup of mashed bananas (about 3) (or butter) 2 tablespoon vanilla extract 2…

    Recipe: Chocolate Cake Mix Cookies

    What else can you do with a box of cake mix? Make cookies!! Let’s get baking these chocolate cake mix cookies. Ingredients box of chocolate cake mix 2 eggs 1/2 cup of canola oil 3/4 cup of Skor bits 3/4 cup of Reese’s peanut butter chips Mix the first 3 ingredients together. I find that it’s better if you mix it all by hand – using your mixer adds in too much air. Next, gently stir in your candy. Roll into 1 inch balls and…

    Recipe: Salad Rolls

    I love salad rolls – yet paying 8.99$ each time at the store for them seems a bit ridiculous when they’re easy to make. Great for lunches, too! For these salad rolls, I used 22cm rice papers, they do make them bigger, but I find it difficult to make them tight when they’re too big. Your choice! Ingredients 7-9 rice wraps 4-6 leaf lettuce leaves a cucumber 2 carrots 1 avocado Dipping Sauce Ingredients 2 1/2 tablespoons of rice vinegar 1 1/2 tablespoons of fish…

Ingredients fries – or fresh cut fries gravy cheese…
