In my quest to diversify my baking skills, I have been trying some vegan baking. I baked these cookies using BC raspberry and apricot jams. In the second photo, we decided to combine both jams as the thumbprint could hold more - delicious. Do you try or eat vegan food?

In my 💛 I know I have been thinking about visiting BC and reflecting on our December drive (the last picture is my favorite). In my 💛 I feel you need to be prepared for the winter and spring driving conditions as the mountain passes can be treacherous.  In my 💛  I wish there was a tourist train from Calgary to Vancouver as the ride would be scenic.

In my 💛 I know changing clocks is a hassle - and losing 1 hour of sleep is worse. In my 💛 I feel the longer days of light will bring us joy.

Dining out with young adults is exciting because everyone has their own food preferences. Gone are the days when you could order dinner for two and call it a night. On tonight's menu we had chicken tenders and fries; cajun chicken and cajun fries; and my personal favorite breaded halibut and fries. Where is your family most likely to dine during the week?

In my 💛 I know we are rolling along in 2024. In my 💛 I feel spring brings the opportunity to be outside and with nature. In my 💛  I wish I could capture the essence of fresh air in a candle. Grab a jar and please join me on this journey to discover what brings you  everyday joy ! Sunday
