Here is one delcious way to celebrate and spoil your mom this Mother's day! Instead of waking Mom up with breakfast in bed, jump in bed with her and give her a memory worth savouring. Some extra cuddles and special time with you will truly make her day, and don't forget one of these deliciously moist chocolate banana muffins to sweeten the moment even more.

I often bake a batch, devour two (one warm) and then store what is left after hubby samples some in the freezer.

Heaven! If heaven had a taste, it would taste like Georgetown Cupcake, cupcakes. Light and feathery, yet delicately sweet and perfect. From the first time you lay your eyes on these flawless beauties, to the first bite and through to the last crumb, these cupcakes are simply heavenly.
It might be cold outside, but there is a plenty to warm things up between you and your sweetheart. I am lucky enough to be married to a very sweet, hopelessly romantic Pisces man (score!). I know the anti-Valentine peeps love to bicker how you should show people you love them everyday and at every opportunity you get and I agree whole heartedly.

… and I’m feeling good. I know you were singing along. Happy New Year to all! Thank you for your support and visits in 2009. I look forward to sharing another year packed with exciting new recipe ideas, the latest in food, health and more.
photography by: Nicholette von Reiche Yeah! It’s December! Christmas always inspires me to bake up a storm and this year is no acception. So don your apron, get out your mixing bowls and let’s get baking. Beautifully presented food gifts are what we are giving loved ones and colleagues this year.

I have put together a super simple and elegant menu that will make your guests remember the scrumptious meal you put forward long after they have forgotten how much their stomachs ached from eating to much.
I couldn’t help myself! I was busy editing an article for quick and easy desserts when this adorable email appeared in my inbox. The subject read “how to make cupcakes” and per usual the word cupcake required my immediate attention.
