Wow, it seems like I have no time for anything! I thought I could handle it. School full time plus tutoring 4 people plus running two first year calculus workshops plus working another job… But now I can plainly see that I need to give something up.. Making food? I think I may have given…
Drinks
Blueberry and Blackberry Smoothie
I have been sinking deeper and deeper into a state of sadness. Why, you all are probably wondering? Well, I have just finished grading the quizzes of the students in the first year calculus workshops that I’m running this year. And let me tell you, it wasn’t pretty. I told myself at the beginning, right…
Strawberry Smoothie
Super simple. Super summer. This is what I made with breakfast this morning. And it was great. You see, the heat has finally got to me. I’m usually very cold. Go to the beach: everyone in a bikini. But me? I’m easily spotted because I’m the one in two sweaters. This has finally changed. In…
Strawberry Mango Smoothie
I love mangoes. Love love love, with a capital L. I buy them buy the bag full. But I have never been able to make anything with them (except for one time) because I seem to always eat them by themselves. I can`t help myself. There they are, all nice and yellow and attractive, just…
Chocolate, Cantaloupe and Cranberry Smoothie
So I’m all for mixing up ingredients I find on hand to create some fun concoction. Today: a smoothie. Maybe it was inspired by some chocolate me and my friend found last night while walking down the candy aisle in London drugs. It was apricot, chocolate and cashews. My friend thought it was the weirdest…
Mexican Coffee
I have never been to Mexico. Pretty much everyone I know has, but I’m still one of those people who haven’t gone on a vacation since the stone ages. There was a period of 4 years that I was traveling a lot, I went to England twice, and to the Philippines (pretty much both places…
Spiced Coconut Coffee
Since I LOVE warm drinks on a cold day (and boy has it been cold lately) I will resume making warm drinks. Warm drinks all around! Maybe I can finally take off one of my layers off (seriously, I am wearing 4 layers right now and I am still cold) So what drink can I…
Maple Hot Chocolate
Easy Maple Hot Chocolate recipe. This comforting drink is rich and decadent, it tastes like liquid dessert. I went to a math conference the other day. Boy what a day that was. It was incredibly fun to say the least. It lasted the whole day, but when it was over I was exhausted! What better…
Melted Marshmallow Hot Chocolate
Easy Melted Marshmallow Hot Chocolate recipe. A fun way to warm up on a cold day, this drink will help you satisfy your sweet tooth. For those nights in the winter months where all you want to do is crawl up inside a blanket and drink a big cup of hot chocolate. These days should…
Gingerbread Latte
Homemade Gingerbread Latte recipe. Tastes just like the one you can get at Starbucks but without the steep price tag! The sun is out. The weather is so nice and yet.. And yet I’m missing all the flavours of the winter. The warm drinks, pumpkin, gingerbread… But who says we can’t have them all year…
