This weekend Southern Alberta is in a heat warning, and it will be running into the majority of next week. I don’t want to seem like I’m complaining, cause I do love the heat, and our summers are so short, but it is very hot here and will be until the end of the week. Since the heat seems to be here for a…

No-Churn Ice Cream The Perfect Summer Treat
I have always wanted to make ice cream, but I thought I needed an ice cream maker. Which living in Alberta I would only use it a few times a year and then it would sit in storage.

Country Harvest Whole Wheat Bread With Honey
I love a good loaf of bread. There’s nothing better than bread right out of the oven with lots of butter, it’s heaven. This recipe came from me getting angry at the cost of bread, actually at the cost of terrible bread. We used to buy this whole wheat bread that had lots of different seeds in it and every time we went to buy it the price went up, and not by small amounts. Needless to say, after this happened the third time I said screw it, I’m sure I can make this bread for under $5. This bread came pretty quickly and easily, the testing phase for this…
