Homemade Buttermilk Biscuits
I've been cooking my way through some of my grandma's recipes. I don't remember her ever baking these biscuits, nor eating them, but I came across her rich tea biscuit recipe and decided to give it a go. They didn't work. I made hockey pucks. I'm from Canada, we know our pucks. These, we could've knocked around the ice and I'm sure they would've held up. After a few tweaks, though, Homemade Buttermilk Biscuits inspired by Grandma have found their way straight into my heart!

Tater Tot and Bacon Breakfast Quesadillas
Has anyone else been feeling a little lost with the state of the world right now? We've been very fortunate and really have zero reasons to complain, but I find myself in a total funk and I just can't shake it. I haven't had any desire to cook or blog and I've put on way too many pandemic pounds! BUT this past weekend was great and it started with Tater Tot and Bacon Breakfast Quesadillas. Nothing special happened but it just felt like we turned a corner!

Loaded Mile-High Beef Nachos
One of the best, shareable appetizers would have to be Loaded Mile-High Beef Nachos, right?! It's my choice, especially if I'm having to share a dish with anyone, plus everyone gets a generous helping. If you like gooey melty cheese pulls, tasty beef, fresh tomatoes, black beans, corn and a bit of spice, then this dish is for you. What isn't there to love? You know what's the best part though, they're super easy to make at home.

Peanut Butter Poke Cake
This year for our son's third birthday, he knew exactly what he wanted. Well, he knew he wanted chocolate cake with peanut butter, it was up to me to find a suitable way to combine the two. Peanut Butter Poke Cake was what I came up with and man, was it good! A rich devil's food cake, topped with a layer of this peanut butter sauce and topped with a huge, thick layer of peanut butter-cream cheese-buttercream frosting. Tell me, that doesn't sound decadent?
