Crispy Samosa Patties

  Samosas are one of my very favourite appetizers. Crispy on the outside, full of flavour on the inside, if you love Indian food, chances are you're in love with samosas as well. Recently, we tried a fun little twist on the classic samosa, and turned that delicious filling into little Samosa patties!     Crispy Samosa Patties   Ingredients 3 potatoes, peeled and chopped into small cubes 1 small onion, diced 1 tbsp ginger, grated 1 tbsp minced … [Read more...]

Pulled Pork Grilled Cheese Sandwich

When the new school year roles around, our quiet lazy days at home seem to disappear in a flash. Dinners can sometimes be rushed but it's still our time to sit down as a family and chat about our day. Our family tends to eat later than most we know, but it works for us. We always wait for Dad to get home from the office so we can share the meal together, before digging out the homework or splashing with the kiddos at bathtime.  Quick meals don't have to taste bad and planning ahead can really … [Read more...]

Walmart Celebrates Back to School Beauty

The final few weeks of summer are upon us, can I get a collective Boo! While the lazy days of summer are certainly relaxing and fun, it's also good to get back into that routine come fall.

That means, no more shuffling to the bus stop in yoga pants and fresh out of bed hair for me, I'll actually have to get dressed and drive them to the school where I'll have to look like I have my act half together at … [Read more...]

maybe we were too late to the village gates

I was raised in a small town, I'm not sure the population was even big even to warrant the title 'town', so I'm pretty sure it was considered a village. And village would be a more appropriate name, especially when you think of the phrase 'it takes a village to raise a child', because it was true in every way. My parents knew every kid in our class, and their parents and probably some of their uncle's and aunt's too. We roamed the town limits freely, always knowing there was a house nearby we … [Read more...]
