These Carrot Cupcakes are an easy dessert idea for Easter! Making and decorating them could be a fun and exciting activity with your kids. Since it’s a carrot made out of cupcakes I thought carrot cake cupcakes with cream cheese frosting would work the best. Grab a bunch of fresh carrots with leaves and a […]
Breaded Eggplant
I love eggplant in all shapes and forms but my favourite two recipes are the Eggplant Salad from this post (it’s more like a dip) and this Breaded Eggplant recipe. I used to plant, grow and harvest eggplants in my grandparents’ garden so maybe that’s one of the reasons why I love them so much. […]

Egg Mushrooms
I can’t believe my baby is almost 7 months old now, why does time fly by so fast! He’s eating solids like a champ now and just started with the egg yolks last week. So since I have to boil eggs for him, I thought why not get creative a bit and add these Egg […]

Happy Valentine’s Day everyone! I hope you’re all having a wonderful day, filled with love and happiness. I don’t necessarily enjoy how commercialization has taken over our lives, but I still like celebrating Valentine’s Day and giving / receiving a gift to let the people in my life know that I care.

However, it’s very easy to work with it to decorate cakes/cupcakes hence why I still make it. But let […]
