Happy Birthday, Robin!

I just wanted to take the time to wish my husband and best friend Robin a very happy birthday! Robin has been my biggest supporter in everything I do. He is the most kind and selfless person I know! He is also a kick-ass photographer and a computer genius. He also laughs at all my jokes, which makes him a supreme being in my eyes. Happy Birthday, babe!

Luscious Hot Fudge Sauce

More, please!

Warm and decadent hot fudge sauce poured over ice cream is my favourite treat! When the sauce hits the ice cream, it forms a ribbon of chewy, fudge-tastic goodness. You'll love it so much, you'll want to slap a ring on that fudge and get it to the church on time.

Caramelized Peaches in Brown Sugar & Rum Sauce

I got 99 problems, but a peach ain't one.
Late summer is the time when beautiful, ripe peaches make their way to our tables from the orchards of the sunny Okanagan. Blush-coloured and fuzzy and heavy with juice, peaches are the ultimate summer fruit, almost bursting with sweetness. When summer temperatures soar, you can make this easy dessert on your barbecue to avoid heating up your kitchen, as I did here.
