Dirt Cupcakes
One of the best things about baking is getting creative with decorating. Its been a long time since I did decorate cupcakes so I was excited to do different.

Prepare…
Cumin Lamb Noodles
We have become addicted to cumin in my household and use it on chicken, roasted veggies and also in this dish. Lamb and cumin work so wonderfully together. Cumin brings out the meaty game-y flavours of the lamb. To make this dish, prepare the lamb by cutting it into cubes. Finely mince 4-5 cloves of…
Herb Infused Butter Turkey
Turkey can often be dry and bland if done incorrectly. But if you do it right, it is one of the most delicious dishes you can serve for dinner. This year I wanted to make some turkey, but I knew that it would take a couple of days to prepare. I normally buy a frozen…
