'Kayso, last night Bill went in to work on his latest painting and I was all like; "Hm? What to do?" And it just so happened I was in the kitchen... alone... talking to myself. Not good.

So I turned on some tunes, turned on the oven and got to baking and yes, this is a tease because these are going on the menu!

What are they? Well, you'll just have to visit us this spring or summer to find out.

Nomnomnom nomnom nomnom!


Sorry, my mouth was full. Have a great day!

Ten years in the Haliburton Highlands

Ten years ago Bill and I packed up our lives in Toronto and moved to the Haliburton Highlands. The decision was made during a two and a half hour drive home Thanksgiving weekend. Two and a half months later, here we were!

It's at this time every year that we are transported back to the first walk we took in a picturesque wonderland of shimmering snow and ice wondering… what were we thinking? It's cold! It's so cold! And look at all this snow!

We didn't even own a shovel!

Regrets? No way. We bought a shovel, warm clothing, and snow tires (another lesson quickly learned) and settled in. Ten years later, we're still here and still marvel at the beauty of this place we call home.
