saucy balls
If you follow me on Facebook you were a part of 2.0’s Epic Weekend of Cooking. You didn’t have to clean up after him so it was probably very enjoyable for you. After seeing the fruits of his labour/my supervision, a few of you emailed to ask for our spaghetti and meatballs recipe. This makes…

Guys! I’m guest posting for my pal, Kim, over at Cravings of a Lunatic today! I bet when Kim read my post she was thinkin’: this scampi happening. But that’s what happens when you hand control of your blog over to salmon else. Should I have scaled back on the fish puns? Probably. But I…
Read Moreeasy summer pasta {crap no. 3}
. . . Here’s some more crap I’ve been meaning to tell you about: Summer has finally hit here in Nova Scotia. After about 40 days straight of rain, it’s hot and humid. Naturally, the first hot day in ages prompted the ancient boiler at the dance studio to kick in at full tilt, and…

. . . 2.0 has been away on a golf trip. He goes every year with a ragtag group of other hairy, golf lovin’ creatures. I can only imagine what their rented condo smells like. It makes my eyes water. When 2.0 goes away, I do my best to eat as much shrimp as possible.…

We’re winter eating. Yup. Here at the Cat Farm, we’re still winter eating. Because there has been no sun. Actually, that’s a lie, because yesterday, for the first time in a month, we had a few hours of sun. I didn’t see it because I was locked in the studio, but I’m told it was totally…
Read Moremovita’s super easy pasta with garlicky cream sauce
It happens. You have a day, maybe a week, when nothing seems to get done. The to-do list keeps growing, and nothing gets checked off. This often happens at the Cat Farm, especially at this time of year – my most hectic time at work, and one of the busiest times for the gardens and…
Read Morespaghetti and meatballs: make on day 1, eat on day 2
Patience is a virtue. I made this spaghetti and meatball masterpiece on Friday afternoon. 2.0’s family was planning a visit for Saturday evening, so I wanted a crowd pleaser that could be assembled at the last minute when I got home from the studio.
