Crepes
This is a simple recipe but wonderful for quick breakfast. I wanted to try something different for my son instead of his regular breakfasts. I decided to fill these crepes with nutella because who wouldn’t like that. I also made some with cinnamon sugar for myself. The first thing you need to do is prepare the batter….
Broccoli Leaf Stir Fry
Growing winter veggies has been an interesting experience. All through summer my broccoli only produced leaves. Just recently there was some signs of florets but not a lot. I’m hoping that by Spring, we will have more broccoli. In the meantime, I have been experimenting with cooking broccoli leaves which are similar to kale. They…
Toffee Icebox Cookies
This is my twist on a recipe I make every year. Instead of using glace cherries, I replaced it with toffee bits. If you find toffee bits you can use them. If not then you can crush werther originals into pieces. Soften some butter. I recommended softening quite a bit as you need the dough to…

Fermented Kale
Kale is a great winter crop as the plant is hardy and can endure cold weather. I still have plenty of kale in my garden so I decided to try to preserve some of it by fermenting it. This is my first time trying this but I would definitely experiment again and make some changes….
Tea Hot Chocolate
I loved trying different types of coffee recipes but this year I want to try something different. I decided I wanted to try different hot chocolate recipes. The first two that I want to try are using teas as a base. I have seen recipes for Earl Grey infused hot chocolate and Lavender hot chocolate….
