It’s fun fact time. I’ve been living in Salt Lake City, Utah for the past 20 years (typing that makes me feel really old), but before moving here, I was born and raised in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. I am still a Canadian citizen and still have a Canadian passport. (Shoutout to all of my fellow…

Pop Rock Donuts
Summer is upon us and I couldn’t be happier. It’s been consistently around 100 degrees here for the last couple of days, but you won’t hear any complaints coming from me. I’d much rather take these high temps than snow or rain any day! Plus, these warm summer nights are complete perfection. You know what…
Shrimp Ceviche
I don’t like fresh seafood. Don’t get me wrong. I like shellfish (crab, lobster, shrimp, oysters) and I’ll take tuna in the can any day, but fresh fish and me don’t mix. Unless it’s sushi. (Yep, I’m totally weird. But, then again, I also hate onions and love onion rings…go figure). Last summer, I reluctantly…
Blueberry Kona Pop Iced Tea Recipe
Today is national iced tea day! Iced tea is one of my very favorite drinks to serve in the warmer months. It’s really easy to make, a thirst quencher, and you can make large batches at a time, which is great for a crowd! A few years ago, I was turned on to Teavana tea. I…
Lemon Oreo Ice Cream
Let me start off by saying that I’m not a huge lemon person. Weird that I’m posting about lemon ice cream and I don’t even like the flavor of lemon that much…? Yep, totally, but there’s one thing that completely sold me on lemon flavor. LEMON OREOS. (Insert wide-eyed and shocked emoji face here).
Mango Mint Julep
Did you happen to catch the Kentucky Derby last weekend? Yeah, me either. One of the best parts of the race (besides the hats and the horses, of course) would have to be the signature cocktail in those classic silver cups. The mint julep is as iconic to the famous race as the fashion is,…
Spicy Cactus Cereal Treats
Do you guys love cereal treats as much as I do? That gooey marshmallow mixed with the crunchy cereal just has a way of making me happy. Like, really happy. Eat a whole pan to myself kind of happy. I’ve been a die hard to the original for a really long time, but I got…
Easy Vegetable Salsa
I find that you’re either a sweet or a salt person. No, not personality wise…I’m talking snacks. Snacks are my love language. People have given me the nickname “snack time” in the past. I don’t mess around with this subject. I also happen to be obsessed with sugar, but I think everyone else in my…
Pineapple Upside Down Cake Ice Cream
Today is national pineapple upside down cake day! Normally, I’m not into the traditional pineapple cake, so instead, I decided to turn a traditional dessert on it’s head and make something different and a little more fun, but using all of the same flavors. What did I make….?
Blackberry Jalapeno Margarita Recipe
Easter is over and we’re heading into the meaty part of April (yeah, I said meaty…it just sounded good) and you know what that means…Cinco De Mayo is our next holiday and it happens to be right around the corner! Cinco de Mayo is definitely a fun holiday and if you’re as excited about it…
