We’re finally getting to experience a bit of Summer! Perhaps we took a bit of Montreal’s warm weather home with us last week? Whatever the case may be, I’m loving being able to bask in the sun without fear of being rained on. Each Friday, I bake a couple of sweet treats for Kevin and…
I enjoyed our mini vacation, but boy did I have a good time in the kitchen yesterday! It felt like it’d been ages since I’d cooked something. As nice as it was to eat out at fun restaurants in Montreal for 4 days straight, come day 3 I was ready for a simple home cooked…
I love bringing along homemade muffins with me on hotel vacations. They’re fantastic for snack or breakfast, can be filled with protein and healthy fats (which I always seem to lack when I travel), and even if they get squished during my trip, they still taste great. Generally I rely on a mini bar to…
I enjoy my fair share of chicken, fish, and wild game meats, but you’d never know it from the recipes that I share here on the blog. Although I’d love to document my meat eating action and share with you the balance I maintain between plant and animal based proteins, I’m sad to admit that…
Happy Friday! It’s been quite the week. Tuesday marked my last official day at work. I packed up the things in my office, said my goodbyes, walked out the door for the very last time, and cried all the way home. Change is hard, saying goodbye to people is challenging, starting something new is a…
I know what you’re thinking… ‘Porridge in July, is this woman mad?’ If you live in Alberta or perhaps are reading this all the way from Melbourne, you’ll appreciate this recipe today. If it’s scorching hot where you are… eat this at 3am, or bookmark it and we’ll see each other in the Fall. Fresh,…
Did you have a great weekend? Ours was so jam-packed with activities that I feel like I’ve been away from the office in ages. Always a good thing :) Kevin and I attended an afternoon showing of Batman on Friday. We were a bit disappointed in the movie, a view we’re 100% alone on when…
It’s baaaaack…. The breakfast that I was head over heals in love with last summer is making a major come back. Quinoa flake bakes are the king of all quinoa flake recipes. They’re a breakfast cake, a protein monster, can be made vegan, are loaded with fiber, and contribute over 15% of your RDA of…
I couldn’t be more thrilled to be sharing with you a new project I’ve been working on for the past month. It’s called Inspirations with Leanne, where I’ll be sharing a new goat dairy recipe on the Happy Days Dairies website every week. The recipes will be made with as little allergen ingredients as possible,…
Life is crazy right now. In less than a week, I’ll be leaving my job of 7 years to pursue a life of helping the community with their food choices, creating recipes, sharing them with all of you, and taking photos throughout the journey. Every time I picture myself working from home – having the…
