Day 107 – Lasagna Recipe from a goverment website??

Totally exhausted.  Didn’t get home till late last night after our friend’s birthday dinner party and loosing one hour sleep cause of day light saving time was definitely a deadly combination.
My in laws were coming for lunch today and I had absolutely no idea what to prepare.  Didn’t go shopping yesterday and got nothing much [...]

Day 065 – I hate Mondays

I think I am turning in to Garfield – “I hate MONDAYS”.  Weekend always seem to pass by so quickly.  Never have enough rest and it’s Monday again.
Plus with the frustration I had with TTC this morning didn’t help either.  It was terrible.  How they said “mechanical problem”… then… “power failure”…. service would resume “SHORTLY”.  [...]

Day 058 – I want to bite my chicken

Yup.. another food related post and another chicken recipe.
Whole fresh chicken was on sale this week at Metro supermarket.  Buy one get one free so it was hard to resist.  Beside it’s relatively easy to make.  Just throw it in the oven and that’s it.

Day 055 – Miso Glazed Black Cod

Ever since I tried the JUMP’s black cod, I was quite obsessed in finding out how to make it.  Last time I tried to poached the Orange Roughy with miso soup.  It was so so.

Day 043 – Purple Cauliflower

Tonight at dinner I wanted to try the purple cauliflower I picked up at McEwan yesterday.  Didn’t know what to expect.  I always imagine the orange cauliflower suppose to taste like cheddar for some odd reason but I know it doesn’t taste like cheddar.

Day 036 – Yes more food related posted

I mentioned that I would try to get away from writing food related posted but it seemed impossible.  After last night sinful cravings, I knew I have to take some action in our diet before it went totally out of hand.
Since we both have to go back to work today, I started to plan our [...]

Day 035 – Sweet Cravings

Both Gordon Ramsay and Julia Child didn’t disappoint me tonight.
My hubby teased me by suggesting to go to Demetre, a dessert place in Toronto.  We ended up not going but I still had my cravings for crepe or my mother-in-law calls it palacsinta (pronounce as paul-la-chin-ta).  Here is Wikepedia version – palatschinken.
During Christmas, my mother [...]

Day 032 – Convection Oven Part II

Yup.  Another experiment with the convection oven.  This time CHICKEN.
Since we gave up on the cabbage soup diet, I thought I would make the chicken that was sitting in the freezer.  I took it out in the morning but still sort of stiff by the time I was going to roast it.  I nuked it [...]

Day 026 – C for Clams…

I think I am ready for Christmas.  Fridge is stocked up and house is cleaned.
While I was at Diana’s Seafood yesterday, I saw these “pasta clam”.  They seemed relatively affordable (C$4.99/lb) so I picked up a pound.  Kept them in the fridge for overnight and this morning I saw one that seemed to be dead [...]
