Now this was a fun midnight snack. I’m always making stuff at and/or around midnight. Can’t sleep ever. But it’s all good, because it turns out I am more creative at night. Sometimes I write down my ideas that I come up with at midnight, and they turns out amazing. But since I don’t…

Onion and Mizithra Cheese Bread
So when I made Spaghetti a la Homer, I had to scour the earth (or every store in Vancouver) for Mizithra cheese. Mizithra cheese is this really hard, salty cheese that tastes AMAZING on pasta. The searching was very much worth it. The only problem is that they sell it by the ball. So now…
Onion Omelette Breakfast Bagel
You know those mornings where you can’t decide whether to have a breakfast sandwich, a bagel or an omelette? (Honestly with these rhetorical questions of mine, I am only describing myself…) Well look no further! With a wham and a bam (and some pam) you can create… a combination of all three! Who’da thunk it?…
Spaghetti a la Homer
I remember the first time I went to The Old Spaghetti Factory with my boyfriend and he ordered this. I ordered a vegetable lasagna: not quite spaghetti, but tasty none the less. The waitress brought him his plate, and I thought “really? Mine has a whole mix of ingredients packed in here, and it just…
Raspberry Almond Cake
Ode to the raspberry: Now there is one berry that takes my heart. Just the right amount of sweet, just the right amount of tart. …and that’s as far as I’m going to take this little poem. You can see why I am not majoring in English. But since it is not raspberry season, it…
Apple-pumpkin Muffin Pancakes
You know those days that you want to bake something really yummy, but the only thing stopping you is that it just takes too long? Or maybe you don’t actually, maybe it’s just me. I’m just extremely impatient when it comes to food. I specify “with food” because I am typically a patient kind of…
Lazy Day Butter Tarts
I’ve got to say, living in Canada, it is hard to avoid butter tarts. Although I don’t know who would want to avoid a good old-fashioned butter tart. I think I first tried a butter tart.. 2 years ago? Best moment ever. I had an instant happy feeling, and my hands would move to grab…
Pumpkin Spice Latte
You know this had to happen. Ever since Starbucks stopped selling pumpkin spice lattes (because fall can’t last forever) I have been craving them. They could brighten my day like nothing else, no matter what was going on. I don’t know what they put in it, but it could cheer me up in a flash….
Grilled Ham, Egg and Cheese Sandwich
Apparently I love to grill them cheeses. See the thing is, I’m studying right now. It’s exam period, it’s awful, it’s coffee all the time (actually, I was good and haven’t had coffee in a long time!) And so, and so.. I can’t make anything too elaborate. I always need something quick and easy that…
Soft Pretzels
Ever since I was very little, I have been pretzel crazy. Whenever we had to choose what kind of chips we want : “PRETZELLLS!” Well of course I liked chips too, but only salt and vinegar. Maybe that’s a clue as to why I like pretzels so much. I don’t have salt all too often,…
