Keto Cheddar Biscuits – September 2019

I haven’t baked in a thousand years because when I last baked, my Banana bread turned out hard as a rock! I was so embarrassed, thank God the children were still small that they probably didn’t know better! So I’ve started this Keto diet that my girlfriend Marisa swears by. She started Keto earlier this year and lost friggin 20+ pounds! I told her I love my baked goods and she said I still could enjoy them, with less carbs! If that isn’t inspiration, I don’t know what it is! She gave me this recipe and I stared at it for a while and as the fear in me started to take hold, I pushed it right far back where it came from and said to myself, I’m hell going to try it! Preparation: 10 minutes Baking:  14min Recipe: 1 1/2 cup almond flour 1 1/2 cup shredded cheese 1/4 cup

Tapagria Spanish Tapas Restuarant Review – September 2019

My husband and I went here for our usual dinner date night. It is located in Richmond Hill and right off the highway. Parking was quite challenging as there were many other fine restaurants in the area. We circled about three times to finally find a spot. Tapagria is a charming Spanish restaurant with an open concept layout and a relaxed and chill atmosphere. We were greeted by the host who was very welcoming. We were seated promptly and within seconds, had our glasses of water and menu in hand. I loved the space of this restaurant because it was laid out perfectly.

Clear glasses, white plates, a single candle and cutlery wrapped in blue and white napkins. Simple and elegant. The kitchen was open concept and

Old School Restuarant Review April 2019

For my husbands birthday, we brought him here for brunch. Old School is located in downtown Toronto, on Dundas Street West. Upon entering, I instantly liked the feel and vibe. The decor is black and white and tucked away in the corner in front of the entrance is a cute bar, surrounded by black and chrome stools. The restaurant has plenty of natural light, with its floor to ceiling windows, that brings in all the outside, in. I love the way the restaurant is open and has a lot of space between patrons who are enjoying their meals. I hate when I go to a place where tables are so crammed together and customers are practically sitting on each other’s lap. To me that’s not the way to enjoy a meal, I need elbow room! Here you can find that, and the ambiance is alive and happy.
