We once had an entire box of double-yolked eggs. I learned later that it's usually a result of young hens.

My friends and I made a delicious kale soup one night following the recipe on the label that the kale was tied up with. I don't know it unfortunately, but it involved chick peas and it was deliciou...

wow, that is a bit weird. My first instinct is to swap bedroom and living room. You could potentially subdivide the living room area to make it a dining room/bedroom with some sort of bookshelves...

In Montreal, a corner store is a "dep" (short for dépanneur ).

yeah, I'm puzzled about why this is better than the much more flexible option of having separate pans. I usually do 2-3 loaves and a tray of buns all together (in individual pans).

I would also spritz with soapy water. It won't hurt your plants and resolved numerous pest problems. And given that it's dish soap, no worries for edible plants either. Just make sure to rinse b...

add some mint or basil for extra-yum!

why not just get a mandoline?

A couple favourite comfort-food recipes in my family cookbook are "Daddy Macaroni" and "Daddy Meatloaf". My parents generally shared the cooking, but those were two of HIS specials. I still prefe...

We made a bunch of salads on the weekend and have been eating various combinations of leftovers and new additions: cold soba noodle, mushroom, and tofu salad, rocket-cashew-pear-parmesan salad, man...

tons of fun magnets, shopping lists, coupons, kid art, photos, flyers. It's a mess, but very home-y.

I just had an egg-scramble dinner last night. Scrambled eggs with lots of fresh garden herbs (basil, chives, garlic greens, parsley, basil), along with merguez sausage and onion fry-up, all on toa...

My favourite wedding food was a "cocktail dinatoire" instead of a sit-down meal, so there were passed hors d'oeuvres as well as stations of cheese/fruit, desserts, and "verrines". Some of the one-b...

You should be very careful in your identification before eating it. Some extremely poisonous plants resemble parsley (eg. hemlock water dropwort).

Wash your hands in cold water if you don't want them to smell. Using hot or warm means your pores open up and capture the garlic oil. I either chop with a knife or if I want a paste I...
