Simple, delicious recipes
When I’m baking with my kids, often I find they lose interest if the recipe takes too long. Robin Hood® quick bread mixes definitely have little ones in mind with only 5 minutes of prep and three ingredients to stir in. Homemade taste in no time!
I love this video from Robin Hood – They’re exactly right, there are no high expectations when baking with kids, just sharing the memories! With the holidays coming up we’ll be spending more time in the kitchen whipping up treats to share!

It’s a good day when the mail consists of cookies! Big thanks to Hidden Garden Foods for sending me a box of their cookies to sample!
I first saw their cookies on Instagram and thought they would be perfect for school lunches! I’ve still got a week left until I’m packing those up x 2. My little boy starts Kindergarten this year! Just as I suspected, these cookies went over well with the kids. I’m going to send extra so they can share with their buddies at school. They’re all gluten and nut free – two big allergy worries off the table! …
Hello from the road!
We’re currently on a family holiday in the southern part of British Columbia, soaking up all the sun and hot weather we can handle! For the trip down I made some chocolate toffee pecan cookies. I just took my all time favorite cookie base and added from there. We cannot travel without snacks and these didn’t last long going down the highway!…
This weekend we’re attending a corporate bbq and camping right across the highway from my office. As much as I don’t like driving in the direction of work on a Friday night there is promise of food so I’ll do it.
They’ll be serving up the normal picnic items – Hotdogs, hamburgers, potato and pasta salad, chips and pop. The most exciting part is that some couples choose to bring things like curried chicken drumsticks or butter chicken. In my opinion those are perfectly acceptable side dishes to a hamburger. BBQ season! That’s the number one reason I’m thinner in the winter months. I have friends that don’t quite understand why I would struggle with weight more in the summer “But you’re outside more and biking” Obviously they haven’t lit a BBQ lately. Because with BBQ comes beer and margaritas and then poor food choices like ice cream at 10 pm. Summer is so short I don’t even worry about it anymore. Before I know it, me and Jillian Michaels will be best frenemies in my basement while she tells me “Don’t you dare stop this video!” I dislike you Jillian but thanks for always getting my jeans to fit again. xoxo…
