Pear and Pecan Muffins
If you love pears and muffins you have to try this pear muffins recipe. Perfect sweet for an afternoon snack on a weekend on a cold or rainy day. I also think this are good breakfast muffins (because they are not overly sweet) or why not for a picnic. Pears are always good when baked, […]
Rose Petal Valentine’s Day Macarons
I recently made these macarons as a Valentine’s Day treat for my husband. I thought it would be a good idea to share the recipe for anyone looking for ideas. Macarons always make a really good gift! What I’ve been up to? Also, I am back after a eternity… or at least I feel it […]
Isabella’s birth story
Before giving birth to my first baby I always thought birth stories were kind of weird, maybe too graphic or even somehow disgusting. And yet I find myself here writing my own. Because I came to realize that the whole event is so big and important that you don’t want to forget a single detail. […]
Candied Orange Scones
If I had to choose one pastry I could eat at any time of the day (besides croissants, of course), it would be scones. Scones of any flavour, kind and shape. I think it’s because they are not too sweet and I find their dense crumbly texture great. Also, it’s a pastry I had many […]
Sourdough discard Grissini
One of the things I dislike most about maintaining a sourdough is the amount of discard it creates. Not only its a lot of food waste but also its messy to throw all the liquid discard in the compost each time. Fortunately there is many delicious recipes around there to use your discard, I have […]
Fall Apple Crumble Cake
When I first arrived to Vancouver in 2016 it was beginning of November, one of the most rainiest Novembers in years people was saying. It was my first time in the city, a city to which I was moving to live at least for several months, I was alone without knowing almost anyone, and it […]
Healthy Breakfast Everything Granola
I recently had this crazy thoughts to start making everything at home. Probably not related at all to the fact that I spent almost all my time inside… 😛 In reality, I remember having these ideas before. When I was a child (don’t judge me :P), I’d daydream that when I grew up I would […]
Apricot Ice Cream Nests
I’m going to be honest, I’m not really a summer fan. Specially considering that where I come from summer means temperatures over 30º C (sometimes more close to 40s) and a lot of humidity (and of course no beach or palm trees nearby). Since I arrived in Vancouver I started to like them more, because […]
Dulce De Leche Sweet Rolls
I recently got lucky enough to put my hands of some kilograms of thick Dulce de Leche. You might wonder why is that special and what is the difference with traditional Dulce de Leche. In spanish we call it “Dulce de Leche Repostero”, and as I mentioned before it’s a thick version of the traditional […]
Liège Waffles at Home
What to say about the current situation, we are living on days of madness, struggle and pain, days that will be remembered for long. But we will overcome it, as we did for so many other tough situations. These are times to stay at home, and take care of ourselves and the ones we love. […]
