Crepes

November 6, 2017 By Fareen 1 Comment

Today’s a special day. It’s Q’s birthday! How is my baby already 9?!

One of Q’s favourite things to eat, besides sushi and peking duck, is crepes. Who could blame him? Those ruffly golden wrappers are the perfect vessel for Nutella and bananas. Naturally this my little foodie’s birthday breakfast request.

Butter Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

October 31, 2017 By Fareen 1 Comment

I don’t know where the month went, but all of a sudden it’s Halloween. Usually I have my decorations out, pumpkins carved at least a week before and costumes ready. I may have dropped the ball this year. There are no decorations save for some witches legs and Q’s costume was done on the fly. We waited until the night before Halloween to do pumpkins. After gutting them and scooping out the seeds, the kids decided that they didn’t want to carve them anymore. Thankfully, I had plastic pumpkin accessories that we stuck into the pumpkins for faces.

Eyeball Jello

October 24, 2017 By Fareen 2 Comments

One week until Halloween! I have to admit, it’s one of my favorite times of the year. The costumes, the treats, it’s just a whole lot of fun. Halloween parties are one of our favourite kinds of parties to throw. There are so many possibilities in making a creepy gathering.

Tips For A Successful Family Session

October 17, 2017 By Fareen Leave a Comment

Pictures play an important role, capturing a moment in time that you can relive over and over. Kids seem to grow like weeds so we try and get pictures done every year.

With my sister and her husband in town with their new baby boy, we thought it would be the perfect time to get a family picture done. It was hard to figure out where we wanted to do it. An outside picture would be nice but would the weather hold up? What do we wear? Do we match or coordinate?

Roasted Brussel Sprouts

October 1, 2017 By Fareen Leave a Comment

I can’t believe that next weekend is Thanksgiving. It’s always a great time to get together with family and friends and be thankful for our blessings. Sure turkey will be on the menu but sometimes, it’s the sides that put the meal over the top. These roasted brussel sprouts should definitely be added to your Thanksgiving menu.
