Mulled wine

Mulled Wine

Last week I crafted. This may not seem like a big deal, except that I don’t craft….or draw…or paint…or really do anything artsy.

Natalie Browne Thank you! It makes the house smell amazing, too šŸ˜Š
Amanda Orlando This is a great idea! Just leave it in the slow cooker and it'll stay hot, perfect for parties

Toffee Shortbread with Eggnog Drizzle

Toffee Shortbread with Eggnog Drizzle

Toffee Shortbread with Eggnog Drizzle I love Christmas time and I love all the special events leading up to the big day. Of course, that includes the annual cookie exchange.

Judith Graber I too like the eggnog drizzle - might have to use that on other cookies. Thanks for sharing with Fiesta Friday...
Samanhta Love the eggnog drizzle on these cookies! Also, I had a flood of memories come back to me when I visited Scotland as a very young girl (8 or maybe 10 years old) and we went to one of the shortbread manufacturers as part of a tour that we did with my brother's soccer team. Crazy.

Short Rib Ravioli

Short Rib Ravioli with Mushroom Cream Sauce

The only real stumbling block is fear of failure. In cooking you’ve got to have a “what the hell” attitude – Julia Child. I love this quote.

Natalie Browne "Pastalicious" I love that :) Thanks so much, Petra. Have a great week!
Natalie Browne Thanks Marla! Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Cranberry Chutney

Cranberry Chutney

This week it seems that Autumn has fully arrived. Though the weather has been a little hit or miss over the past few weeks, the past few days have seen a definite chill in the mornings.

Marla I noticed on the calendar that this coming Monday was Thanksgiving for Canada - Happy Thanksgiving to you. Your recipe sounds delicious and would sure make Thanksgiving or any meal special. It sounds super easy to make too. Thanks for sharing on Real Food Fridays. Pinned & tweeted!
Julie I make my own cranberry sauce and love the combination of the cinnamon sticks and cloves in yours! I'm thankful that this isn't our Thanksgiving week LOL. I'm not ready yet! I am thankful that you brought this amazing recipe to FF and sincerely hope you enjoy your holiday and weekend!

Pineapple Coconut Cream Pie

Pineapple Coconut Cream Pie

It all started with a simple text message: “Hey Dad, what do you want for your birthday dinner on Tuesday?” I was actually wondering what he wanted for dinner, but the reply I got related

Ai @Ai made it for you Beautiful! I'm a sucker for anything coconut. While I'm looking forward to fall and winter, part of me is missing the tropical flavors of coconut and pineapple and mango. I don't make pies often either, but I think I might have to make a big batch of pie crust and keep it in the freezer for all the pumpkin and sweet potato pies coming up :)
Natalie Browne Thanks Angie! I've never been huge on coconut cream pie, but I was really delighted with how this turned out. I'm looking forward to co-hosting this weekend!

Halibut with spaghetti puttanesca

Spaghetti Puttanesca with Halibut and Grilled Lemons

Have you ever wondered about the history of your favourite dishes and what kind of stories they might have behind them. I do. ALL THE TIME.

Kunstkitchen This is a recipe that incorporates foods that I really enjoy eating. Thanks for the story behind this too. Fascinating = food and amore!
Natalie Browne Thanks, Gloria! It's hard to have pasta without opening a bottle of wine, lol. I agree, though, puttanesca is a perfect wine and pasta meal

Blueberry Lemon Bread

Have I ever mentioned how much I love the summer and the abundance of local, delicious produce it brings to the market? I really love all the seasons and the change it brings, but summer is my absolut

Julie This looks amazing Natalie! I love blueberries and lemon together and then there is my first love, bread!
Angie | Fiesta Friday Did you know I have 4 blueberry bushes in my backyard, and didn't get a single berry?! Freaking birds!! And I love, love blueberries! Thankfully there's a blueberry farm around here. The bread sounds great, Natalie. And that mint glaze, too šŸ˜‹

Thai Coconut Curry Mussels

Thai Coconut Curry Mussels

So, it turns out that my 5 year old really likes mussels, like, A LOT. This is a fairly new thing for her.

Natalie Browne Thanks, Liz!
Natalie Browne Haha! When I saw your post a couple weeks back, I had a hard time getting it out of my head, so a seafood feast seemed like the perfect opportunity to make some of my own. I've been very lucky to have kids that are big seafood (and, really, all food) eaters.
