Lake Louise

I’ve been lovin’ life lately!  I’ve had lots of free time and I’ve been taking advantage of it.

Skating on Lake Louise

Travelling:  My sister and I took a weekend road trip up to Canmore/Banff.  I scratched another item off my bucket list: Skating on Lake Louise.  I could have spent the whole day on the ice, but I forgot how uncomfortable skates can be.

Baking Bread

Learning New Skills:  I took a bread baking class during the long weekend.  I learned a lot of wonderful tips and tricks.  I’m not one to shy away from recipes with yeast, but there’s something about bread that I can’t quite get right.  Once I try it more at home a few times and get the hang of it, I’ll share what I’ve learned.

Lavendar Dry Soda

 

Current obsession:  Dry Lavender Soda.  It’s slightly sweet and fizzy and has less sugar than most soda pop.  Love it.

Robicellis Cupcakes

 

Cookbook Lovin: I came across this cupcake book online and went straight to Chapters and picked it up.  I can seriously relate to the Robicelli’s; the swearing, the sarcasm, the love of a good buttercream.  Not to mention a whole chapter dedicated to the Golden Girls.   This book really hits the mark.  I can’t wait to try out their recipes.

2014 Goals: So far this year, I’ve made good on my goals.  I’ve been learning new skills, reading lots of books – even some that aren’t of the cookbook variety.  And I’ve taken more time for myself.
