Continue reading →: Mexican Chocolate Icebox Cookies Take 2…and Cinnamon Bun Cookies
This week we’ve revisited an old favourite and are trying a new favorite! The old favorites are the Mexican Chocolate Icebox Cookies from Jenny Rosenstrach’s “Dinner: A love story” cookbook. I’ve always really liked this cookbook- it’s full of easy and tasty recipes that are great for families. I’ve had…

I’m in week 2 of my spring break and I’m leaning into it a bit. It’s a bit of a weird break but it’s good. I’m enjoying the downtime and getting a bit done too. The best thing about having time off is Monday morning pole classes. I’m feeling really…

Continue reading →: Hello October, Hello (and goodbye) DublinI can’t believe it’s nearly the end of October- this year is flying by and we’re already in the midst of the -Ber months! The last month has been AMAZING. I finished my role and delivered a great strategy, went to an amazing leadership conference, had the best time in…

Continue reading →: September? Already??
Time goes so fast. So, so fast. I would say that I can’t believe it’s already September but in truth, I can’t believe it’s already 2025. Granted, this is not the 2025 that I would have ordered. It feels more like the 2025 that Marty McFly went back to in…

This week’s cookies are the Brownie Cookies from 100 Cookies and Chocolate Peanut Butter Cookies. After last week, I was thinking about how much I love Reece’s peanut butter cups and the chocolate/peanut butter flavour combination. I mean I’m quite picky when it comes to chocolate, and Reece’s peanut butter…

Happy Aussie Father’s Day to all the Dads out there. It’s been an action packed Father’s Day but also quite a normal Sunday. It’s funny, the longer you spend as a parent, the less significant Mother’s Day and Father’s Day become. It was still gorgeous to see how excited Thomas…

And I think our oven is running hot. And this is what separates me from an actual baker. An actual baker pays attention and takes out the trays before they burn. I am still a bit uncertain so even though I think the cookies are overbaking, I still follow directions. …

We all know by now not to trust a thing you see, hear or read on the internet. It’s also no secret that I’m a Marketer’s dream. I am super brand loyal and very susceptible to advertising. So when someone’s internet blog says, “this is the perfect chocolate chip cookie”,…

Continue reading →: What inspires you?
And I don’t just mean when it comes to food. I’m learning that the hardest part of being a parent is knowing what to say when life lifes. When games are lost, when small humans are worried about big things, when you’re trying to encourage someone to believe that the…

Continue reading →: Retro Flavours, with a modern twist!
Yet another rainy weekend in Sydney – which has both pros and cons! When it rains, there’s more time to bake which isn’t a bad thing. I now split it over two days – dough on Saturday and baking on Sunday. I’m not sure if it makes it more…
