Welcome! Here you'll find our family favourite recipes and some pieces of our crazy life with four kids, a dog, chickens and bunnies living just outside Montreal, Quebec, Canada.
Growing up with eight siblings it was especially exciting when we had a chance to spend one-on-one time with one of our parents, haha! But I have great memories of visiting a little shopping plaza with my mom from time to time, and she would always let me choose one […]
The simplest pasta, with a twist. I love to make Cacio e Pepe, translated to “cheese and pepper”, extra creamy and with lots of cheese.. and sometimes I throw in chicken as well. It’s so filling and comforting, and is one of the easiest dinners ever! Hope you enjoy my […]
Everyone needs a good chocolate chip cookie recipe. This is the only one you will ever need, trust me. These cookies are so good, but you don’t need to take my word for it. My mom (my kids Oma) made these cookies while I was growing up and they really […]
Am I the only one who thinks fajitas are one of the best and easiest dinners ever? They’re so good and so versatile with how you can dress them that even the pickiest of eaters will be fed. (I have one kid that only adds cheese to theirs- and that’s […]

This is a fantastic summer dinner for anyone who loves to grill! And if you’d rather fore-go the BBQ you can prepare these kabobs on your skillet, as well. The marinade is wonderful and rich with flavor, the pineapple gives it a sweet edge and the zesty chilli yogurt dressing […]
Waking up and realizing it was Saint Patrick’s Day, I knew there would be something green on the menu today. This cake is moist and delicious and the matcha adds the perfect touch of color and flavor to make it unique. It is perfect with a cup of tea for […]
So, these are pretty much the definition of indulgence. I love making variations on things like cinnamon buns because it’s really hard to go wrong. These are made with my moms sweet dough recipe, the fluffy yummy dough that I usually use for any kind of roll I make. I […]
I have a mild addiction to a certain Lebanese fast food place that serves these delicious spicy fries with a garlic sauce. It’s actually one of my favorite things ever and I get cravings for it all the time, haha! Anyway, I decided to try making them at home and […]
