Buffalo Chicken Meatballs

These Buffalo Chicken Meatballs were excellent. The entire family gobbled them up with no leftovers – I’m going to double the recipe next time! The original recipe on Delish calls for blue cheese – but I substituted with cream cheese as I’m not a fan. This was the perfect weeknight supper with a kick. Enjoy.…

I’m Thinking Of Ending Things (2020)

So long as you are okay with movies that are “different”; or you’re familiar with the work of Charlie Kaufman (and like his stuff); or enjoy a good, old-fashioned weird movie that will have you muttering WTF under your breath pretty much throughout the whole thing – then this may be the Netflix movie for…

How the Summer of COVID Became Our Summer of Ducks

You ever been alone with a duck? I mean really alone? Just you and duck – you’re actually holding said duck – looking into its beady eyes – which by the way – close from the bottom up. If you’ve ever been alone with a duck staring into its beady eyes – you’d know that.…

Eggplant Parmesan

I’m not going to lie – this recipe had me cursing at first because there is a lot of prep work to do. It easily took a few hours to get organized before I was popping this baby into the oven. BUT – it is the best Eggplant Parmesan I’ve ever eaten in my life.…

Never Rarely Sometimes Always (2020)

Every once in a while, you come across a movie that reminds you how lucky you are – to come from the family you do, to have had the childhood you did, to have the friends and coworkers and acquaintances you did. A movie like this reminds you that not everyone is so lucky. Tanya’s…

Life With Two Fuss Budgets (Guest Post)

I’m not going to mince words: I live with two fussbudgets. At least when it comes to food, that is. My son and husband are both very picky eaters, and while I wouldn’t say that my culinary tastes are super diverse, I beat the heck out of them in that department. When it comes to…

Homemade Bagels

These bagels are comprised of 4 main ingredients. Honestly – if I hadn’t already made them (several times) I wouldn’t have believed it possible. They are easy to throw together and delicious! Don’t believe me – then try them for yourself? Originally posted on Skinnytaste, my friend Colleen was the one who sent the recipe…

The Popsicle Days of Summer

Grape, pink, the ever elusive banana. Those were the popsicle flavours that defined my sticky sweet childhood summers.  Windsor summers got so hot that as soon as you stepped foot outside of Chuck’s – the corner store at the top of my street (I still call it that even though Chuck is long gone and…

General Tso Chicken

Another awesome recipe thanks to my friend Sandra. The original recipe can be found at Dinner Then Dessert – but I made a few tweaks to it at my house. It turned out great and everyone loved it. The only downside – there are no leftovers! Enjoy. Ingredients: 2 lb. boneless, skinless chicken thighs cut…

The King of Staten Island (2020)

Don’t go in expecting a hilarious comedy and I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised with what this movie has to offer. Loosely based on Pete Davidson’s real life losses, and personal struggle – The King of Staten Island is a showcase proving that he’s definitely not just another not-so-pretty face in Hollywood. Tanya’s Score: Good-and-a-half*…
