Trying to curb my quarantine carb-loading and mix

Trying to curb my quarantine carb-loading and mix in some shrubbery. This blueberry broccoli salad with ranch dressing is the kind of summer salad that won’t fill you with dread at the prospect of eating your greens. Also, this homemade ranch dressing is insane - I want to put it on everything. Get the recipe on the blog, link in bio. .

@thesocakitchen was kind enough to send over their Taste of Mexico package for me to try and it was truly DELICIOUS #gifted. They have an extensive menu available for pick-up or delivery Tuesday through Saturday. The Taste of Mexico is a generous meal for two including: guacamole & chips, shrimp tostada (which was to-die-for), octopus salpicón, 4 tacos, churros with Nutella (!!) and a bottle of refreshing cucumber margarita! All for $72. Check out their website to order thesocakitchen.com. .

In solidarity with the #amplifymelanatedvoices movement created by @jessicawilson.msrd and @blackandembodied I will not be sharing any of my own content on feed or stories between now and June 7th. This will be a time to amplify the voices of Black People and POC. This will be a time to reflect and learn and listen.

Yesterday’s glamour shot. I once briefly toyed with the idea of having glamour shots taken at Sears - complete with a feather boa, blue eyeshadow and something sequined - and then handing out headshots with contact information to men I found attractive at bars or restaurants. Although Sears no longer exists in Canada, should I still follow through on this idea? Maybe @laurakelly.co can help me with the shoot. .

As summer temps finally hit Ottawa this week, I thought this would be the perfect time to feature this show-stopping summer dessert: Peach Bourbon Biscuit Cobbler. Don’t get me wrong, the biscuits are a labour of love, but what else are you doing with your time? And you will be pleased you made the effort when you sample the finished product.

Today is #worldcocktailday and I’m marking the occasion with my usual installment of #virtualhappyhour and throwing it back to this Tiki drink featuring my all-time favourite drinking vessel.

Pictured here in this Kokeshi doll Tiki mug from Benihana of Tokyo that I picked up on @etsy .
