French Toast
Can you believe that I’ve never made French toast before? My kids were beyond excited to hear about “pancake toasts” and munched down a whole bunch of these. Luckily, I made quite a few so there were enough for me too. I thought it would be timely to post these on Le Quatorze Juillet, the… Read more »

Vegan Pancakes
It’s been a a while since I posted pancakes. It’s the perfect food to bring on a picnic – my youngest agreed and quickly ate five of these.

Salted Chocolate Tahini Cookies
I finally got around to making these cookies that I’ve been thinking about for a long time. I didn’t think the kids would be too keen, with the salt and tahini (all the more for me!) but I was wrong. The 4-year-old had a proper breakdown when I didn’t let him eat these cookies for… Read more »

Another new discovery I’ve made here, and that peaked my interest, is polenta cake with citrus. I could just imagine how moist and tasty it would be. And it did not disappoint.
