. . . Today I have a guest post over on Will Cook For Friends. That’s Willow‘s blog, and she’s the bomb. Willow’s readers are used to gorgeous photos and elegant blog posts about food technique and seasonal ingredients. So I took things down a notch and sent her a longversation about the decline of…

. . . Hey there, fancy pants! I’ve got a favour to ask of you. You know, I’m pretty darn lucky to be living my dreams at baking school. Sure, I feel sick every day and cry a lot, but still – it’s wicked awesome. I’m sure I don’t have to tell you that there are…
Read Moreyer dancin’ photos and some advice from movita
Today is my first day of baking school. I thought about posting a recipe or something baking-related, but it was tough to find just the right thing to express my excitement. And then I remembered that I still have a few dancing photos to share with you. And also, some words of wisdom. Because when…

Remember Lan? From yesterday’s post? Whelp, this is a video of her dancing. It was shot at a Zombie 5k race. In the United States of America, they recently unleashed a massive effort to get Americans more fit. So they also unleashed a bunch of zombies. Here’s how it works: Americans run through a forest…

So, last week I asked you to send me some dancing photos. Because Sonya (up above) sent me a super awesome photo of herself from 1974. And dance photos make me way happy. Here’s what hit my inbox on the weekend: That’s Lan up there. You probably remember her from Bake My Cake 2012. She’s…

. . . A few weeks ago, movita superfan, Sonya, sent me this photo: That’s Sonya. In 1974. I’ve looked at it 4.5 million times. Because it makes me happy. So, as we head into the weekend, I thought I’d ask you to send in a dancing photo of your own. Maybe it’s old. Maybe it’s…

. . . A few weeks ago, I was asked if I might like to review Grace’s Sweet Life, a book dedicated to Italian desserts. Let me emphasize: Italian desserts. Book reviews aren’t really the sort of thing I do round here, but because I follow Grace’s blog, and she’s a fellow Canuck, I accepted. Also, IT’S…

Yesterday, I received an email with the subject line: a borrowed cup of sugar and sweet baking victory. I get pretty stoked when any of you people take the time to email me – especially if it’s not hate mail – so I settled down with my morning coffee to read Eliza’s epic tale of baking. Also,…

. . . When you become terribly important and famous, like Ellen DeGeneres and myself, people do stuff for you on your birthday. Famous people want to be near you. They send you taped greetings from their movie sets, touching tribute emails, photos of themselves with you, and also, fancy prezzies. I know, because I’ve…

Hey, you. Let’s chat. I’ve received an enormous number of emails expressing concern about some stuff that went down on my blog yesterday. My inbox was full this morning. Seems you’ve been pretty worried that my feelings may have been hurt by a couple of comments left upon the naming of Elsa as Bake My…
