Alicia P's Baked Brie and Grilled Cheese Sandwich

Written by Alicia P.

I made baked brie and a grilled cheese sandwich around the same time. I hate frozen/refrigerated bread, so I bought a loaf of sourdough to use between them.  I used Chow’s Garlic Fries Melt for the ingredients, but it has no recipe.

Mapping "I Do"

My friend, Abby, asked me to create her invitations for her upcoming nuptials that's taking place this summer. Part of her invitation package is a Directions Card that consists of a map.

Poulet de Normandie

I had a cooking/baking party with some friends the other night and decided to make one of my easiest and tastiest meat dishes in their kitchen – Poulet de Normandie, except I used pork tenderloin instead of chicken.

Feenie's Quinoa, Green Bean and Tomato Salad

My friends, @MashedThoughts and @Seapotato, bought me Rob Feenie's Casual Classics for my birthday this year.  I was recently introduced to quinoa and loved it, so naturally, the recipe that caught my eye in the book was the Quinoa, Green Bean, and Tomato Salad.

Amy H's Cowl Scarf Project

I had the pleasure of interviewing my good friend, Amy H, on her cowl scarf project.

The left was made for her dad and the right was made for her mom.

Since the scarves were made for her parents, she made them more snug than a typical cowl scarf to provide more warmth.

Party It Up Bollywood Style!

My sister got married this summer. For her bridal shower, we hosted a Bollywood theme party in my basement.  So of course, it wouldn't be much of a Bollywood party without some fun and flashy decorations!

Both pillow sizes were $1.99 from IKEA.

One of the bridesmaids and I made some colourful throw pillows for everyone to sit on. I also drew some elephants to decorate the walls.
