As a food lover, I always want delicious food that can be made quickly, especially this time of year when it’s just so busy.

Lightened Up Bermuda Fishcakes
Good Friday is one of my favourite times of year. The weather is warming up and the days are longer which obviously means more sunshine. In Bermuda, we fly kites for Good Friday. It’s a tradition that’s gone on for longer than I’ve been alive. I remember making kites with my dad when I was a child and how much fun we had. Tomorrow, children all over the island will fly…

Meal Prep: Sheet Pan Edition
While I love to cook, I’m also a busy mama of two. That means I generally don’t have time to be in the kitchen for hours slaving over a meal.

Crispy Air Fryer Fries + Spicy Aioli
I don’t know about you, but I’m a French fry girl. You can usually find me ordering them wherever I go unless I’m really watching what I eat. There’s just something about fried potatoes that makes me incredibly happy. I prefer hand cut fries but sometimes frozen fries are just as good. When I’m at home, I never fry anything so I had to find a way to make fries…
