Muffins are probably one of the first things I learned to make, but I still remember the days when I used to buy the muffin mix and use that to make muffins. Little did I know how easy the batter really is to make. I love to make all sort of muffins, but probably the most popular muffins I make are these banana nut muffins. For these muffins I wanted them to have a bigger top, so in order for this to happen ...

This week I am in Dallas, Texas for some training. Now let me tell you my luck. I was so excited to come to Dallas, primarily to get some warm weather in February, but with my luck, the pilot informed us that the weather in Dallas was actually colder than it was in Calgary. I mean how could this happen to me. Everyone I've talked to here say they hardly ever get snow, and the day I arrive in Dallas it snows ...

I have to say I am impressed with the weather here, it's been just gorgeous the past few days and the next few days are going to be just as great. I don't want to jinx it, so I won't say much more about that. Having said that, it does tend to look a bit like fall outside, at least here in Calgary, the leaves are falling, the days are shorter and the nights longer. When I come home from work I think I have a ...

I think summer is officially over here in Calgary. It feels like fall, leaves are falling, chilly air and as the weather is changing and getting cooler, people are starting to get sick. That's the story at my work, and I happened to catch whatever is going around. But anyway, on to happier things. I mentioned that we went to the farmer's market last week and I bought a few beautiful pears, because I hadn't ...

Now that's a mouthful, strawberry banana chocolate chip muffins. And that is a delicious mouthful. Strawberry season is here. So I keep buying strawberries, they are so good and so sweet. However, most of the time we forget to eat them, same thing with bananas, and I don't want them to go bad, so I always end up baking something. These strawberry banana chocolate chip muffins are so scrumptious and yummy, I ...

How about some yummy biscuits. These biscuits have bacon, cheddar and onions in them and are absolutely delicious. These are great for breakfast or whenever you just need a snack, and are very filling. They are very easy to make really, it only took me maybe about 15 minutes to put them together and they bake just as quickly in 25 minutes you have these decadent biscuits. They are also versatile as you can ...

I love making muffins, especially ones that are easy to make and delicious. And you already know I love baking, so I'll take any excuse to bake some muffins or some banana bread.  I made these ones today because I felt like eating something chocolaty and this was the easiest and quickest way to get my chocolate fix. :) First preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grab a large bowl and add to it the flour, bakin ...

Blueberry Muffins are one of my favorites.  When I was in university, I used to have a blueberry muffin almost every morning for breakfast in the student center's cafeteria.  I did not like any other food there, but the blueberry muffins were the best.  I still love them with a cup of coffee in the morning, there's just nothing better. I since then learned to make them myself, they are so easy to make and n ...
