I remember when I was younger, my parents would sing the nursery rhyme: Sing a song of sixpence, A pocket full of rye I never asked anyone what rye was, but I would make stuff up. I thought it was another word for money, for candy.. Then I would think that it’s some made up…

Whole Wheat Cheddar Biscuits
Look at me, I can use my whole wheat flour! It’s always a challenge for me to use it. I’ve recently noticed that ANYTHING I make using this whole wheat flour tastes a little off. For this one, you bite into it, and go “I’m not sure if I like this…” another bite “..hmm.. I…
Eggless Banana Chai Latte Cookies
You know those days, where you just want to bake something? You have a pile of cookies, and other various baked goods, but you have the feeling that you need to bake? ..Or is that just me. Anyways, if you are anything like me, I constantly need to be baking something. So whenever the oven…
Baked Fava Bean Falafel
Five years ago, I was a vegetarian. It was honestly not hard at all. I lost my taste for meat. If I could live without eating animals, I would. This did cause a slight problem though: I got really skinny. Like, 100 pounds on a good day skinny. Apparently I should have researched what to…
Whole Wheat Pancakes
Good morning pancakes! There is always something extremely comforting in digging in to a stack of pancakes on a lazy Saturday morning. As I do have a go-to plain pancake that I usually make every Saturday morning, I thought that I should make pancakes using whole wheat flour. I mean, whole wheat has never killed…
Cashew Chicken
Last night, at around midnight (no, 12:35AM to be exact) me and my boyfriend went for chinese food at one of my favorite restaurants. Sure their method of pouring the tea is tipping the whole teapot across the table and hope that some will get into our tea cups. The food makes up for us…
Cracker Crumb Chicken
When I was a kid, I was extremely fascinated by dinosaurs. I would read all about them, go to Science World to learn about them and talk to everyone who would listen (maybe even people who didn’t listen) about them. So when I heard that scientists have found ample evidence to prove modern birds are…
Whole Wheat Snickerdoodles
Now I`m just a novice in the kitchen. And when I say novice, I`m being nice. I don`t ever REALLY know what I`m doing, just mix things together, see what happens. It`s like an experiment. This is why I like baking/cooking. It’s like an art and a science in one. So when I went to…
Eggless Banana Scone
Now these scones ended up as a flop. I wanted nice, big scones. Instead? Pancake scones. Maybe it was the lack of eggs. Maybe it was the over mixing. Because I forgot that we do NOT want our scone batter to look silky smooth. But what can you expect when I just bought a new…
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…
