Sound on for an ASMR of flour being sifted in an antique sifter. The visual is pretty satisfying as well 😍🎧🎼👀

Stop making hockey pucks! 🏒💥

If your molasses cookies keep turning out heavy, dense, and tough enough to break a tooth, you’re making one critical mistake—and it usually starts with the flour bag.

Depending on where you grew up in Atlantic Canada, this pillow-soft, spice-packed heritage biscuit goes by a completely different name. Whether your family called them Fat Archies, Moosehunters, Lumberjacks, Long Johns, Camp Cookies, or Pubnico Cookies, this classic recipe is pure East Coast comfort.

In today’s video, I’m sharing the secret technique to keeping them soft, plus a modern "no-patience" hack that completely bypasses the sticky mess.

Slice 'em warm, drop in a cold slab of salted butter, grab a sharp piece of cheddar cheese, and let's get baking! 🧈🧀

Hey friends! 🥒✨
If your garden is suddenly overflowing with cucumbers—or if you’ve got a few overgrown, yellowing monster cukes sitting on the counter that you’re not sure what to do with—don't throw them out!

Overripe cucumbers are actually secret gold for making Lady Ashburnham Pickles. They have that perfect firm, thick crunch that holds up amazingly well to a classic sweet and tangy mustard pickle brine, making them a fantastic Atlantic Canadian heritage staple to stock in the pantry.

I just put together a new video showing how quick and easy it is to transform those giant or forgotten cucumbers into a delicious batch of Lady Ashburnhams (zero waste required!):

Give it a watch if you're looking for a fun preserving project this week. And if anyone has extra cukes or a favorite variation on the recipe, I’d love to hear about it in the comments below!

Happy pickling!

I meant to only spend $20 at the estate sale today. Oh well, i have an amazing antique wringer and wash board that have the original ink branding, so incredible, I wish you could see these in person. The ink and graphics is just amazing. Have you ever used either of these?

Brunch the Ukrainian way with a hearty bowl of Shpundra (beetroot and pork stew) and a side of toasted baguette. This is my take and its delicious. Beets are an affordable long lasting root vegetable that I don't get nearly enough of.

The best thing about food is you can experience a taste of other cultures without the pricy travel ticket!

I do not recommend buying any kitchen appliances from as they will not refund your purchase and will only give a store credit. Returned a nutribullet Foodprocessor as the motor was not powerful at all and there had to be something wrong with it. They made me wait while the manager looked up different models even though i told her i looked alread and they didnt have anything i wanted. They then made me wait while they took a phone call and then had a conversation not related to my transaction. Next i will contact the credit card company as I thought there was some sort of purchase protection with them. In todays scrappy world you have the power to make decisions with your money and I would recommend over Canadian Tire as at least they will refund products not working right . Canadian Tire your customer service is not acceptable and I truly hope my followers do not have to deal with you
