Well what do you know, I’m actually posting something Nutella-related on World Nutella Day! I know a lot of other food bloggers are probably celebrating with more fancy Nutella goodies today, so perhaps my humble muffins could be a breath of fresh air. I always thought that this recipe was a great way to kind of highlight how Nutella can change something from simple to special, so yes, while this recipe is exceedingly simple, it’s so homey and yummy I think you’d still find it hard to resist.

Banana Nutella Squares born out of excitement
If you’re a reading fiend like me you probably have an obscene amount of books lying around in your room. My shelves are filled with novels in different genres, cookbooks, and even magazines. Despite that I still always have this need to buy any title that captures my interest, whether or not I’ve finished reading other novels on my to-read list, or cooked more than three recipes from a certain cookbook. It’s the same thing with magazines, only I am quite partial with buying issues only of magazines I like. I’ve got a select number of Donna Hay magazines because those make my eyes pop with the amazing photography and…

{Christmas Countdown 2013} Chocolate, Banana, and Nutella in a Cupcake + ways to frost cupcakes [VIDEO]
They say the spirit of Christmas manifests itself in people who prefer to give rather than to receive; those who whole-heartedly and excitedly give gifts just for the satisfaction of a smile from loved ones. With that in mind, I decided to have this year’s Christmas Countdown recipes focus on well-loved giftable treats. Although I realise you can pretty much gift any sort of baked good during this season, I thought I would share some festive treats that became great hits here at home and to those I gifted them to. Now cupcakes are, I think, one of those very few things just about everyone loves. Cupcakes are delicious and…

Driving slow on Sunday mornings
I needed to borrow a line from Maroon 5 because it perfectly describes the Sundays I’ve been spending this last month and a half. If you’re a regular reader of this blog, you’re probably sick of hearing me complain about how tired I’ve been recently. Sorry, guys. There just have been weeks when I feel so out of it that I don’t spend time in the kitchen at all (thank goodness for backlogs and former baking frenzies). I haven’t made any breads in a while which makes me sad, but I’ve gained a new appreciation for things that are quick to whip up with an equally satisfying pay-off. And since…

Making the easiest ice cream ever
Where have I been these past few days? Well, it’s been crazy. I contemplated taking a hiatus from blogging, but that would be the absolute worst thing I can do for myself, especially at a time like this. I don’t want to give up all the things that keep me sane. I’m firm in my resolve to keep blogging in general, and to keep having kitchen adventures to write about. But sometimes, things happen that can get in the way of the things we want to do. The days following the 15th of January have been tremendous, and in a bad, really tiring way. It feels like someone pulled a…
