  • That's how many tries it took my mom and me to figure out my grandma's recipe. She knew it by heart, so I can't really fault her for the minimal instructions and non-existent measurements. My aunt test drove this bad boy and agrees this is it! Grandma's Weekend White Bread is as close to my Grandma's sixteen-loaf Saturday ritual as it gets. It's perfect for sandwiches or with a bit of butter for this year's soup season.

    Mrs. McBane's Sugar Cookies are my favourite. I don’t know Mrs. McBane, but I imagine her to be a very a proper lady with a bit of a wild side. I could have this all wrong. She is a friend of my grandmas, or so I think. I'm not even sure of her first name, the colour of her hair, the names of her children, or even if she has children. What I do know is that she is incredibly generous to have shared this cookie recipe with my grandma.

I love a good snowstorm, it means movies, cuddles, warm blankets and my Grandma's soft gingersnaps. Straight from the oven, they'll warm you from your head right down to your toes.
