I don’t know about you, but Fall is my favourite and I am all about pumpkin spice everything!!! Even if you aren’t into the taste, you gotta love the smell, right? So, I thought I would attempt a DIY pumpkin spice candle and thought you might as well. Candles are easier to make than you might think, but there are some supplies you'll have to gather beforehand. You'll need soy wax flakes and a candle wick, which you can find in any craft or hobby store, but the rest you can hopefully find around the house. Supplies: 2 c. Soy Wax flakes1 candle wick, long enough for your container (I ...
Skillet Cornbread Recipe
Cornbread is a personal favourite of mine. Not only is it delicious, it is pretty versatile. You can serve it with all types of meals: with a Mexican style breakfast, with chilli or even as a desert with a sweet jam. Baking cornbread in a skillet gives it a crispy exterior and an amazing rustic presentation. This cornbread is a little sweet and if you add the peppers can have a kick of heat. It is also nice and moist because of the cream corn. Ingredients 1 cup all-purpose flour1/2 teaspoon salt1 tablespoon baking powder1/2 cup butter or vegan butter at room temperature2 eggs at room ...
A Citrus Christmas
There is nothing more traditional or timeless then using oranges in your Christmas decor. Putting oranges in stockings are said to represent a gift of gold from Saint Nicholas.

I thought I might share some projects so you can have your own citrus Christmas. DRYING YOUR ...

So, I thought I would share my healthier banana bread recipe that is guaranteed to also be moist! There are a few tricks to making the ultimate moist banana bread. Using olive oil helps keep it moist, as does using LOTS of bananas– I used four, which also helps sweeten the bread naturally. This means that there isn’t a lot of sugar in the recipe, but it’s still decadently sweet. This banana bread recipe also ...
Apple Butter Recipe
I don't know about you but Fall is my favourite season. Not only is it time to bring out all your comfy sweaters and scarfs, it also brings pumpkin spice everything and the apple harvest. The most delicious thing to make with apples is of course apple pie (and nobody made a better one then my Mimi) but second has got to be apple butter. What is the difference between applesauce and apple butter you ask? Both apple butter and apple sauce are slow cooked apples and spices, but apple butter is cooked longer than applesauce which creates a thick, smooth, intense apple flavored spread. I ...
