Vegan Mocha Irish Coffee #BornOnTheFarm

March 29, 2016 By Food Retro

I love me my coffee drinks. They are great for company, and super stupid easy. They taste good, they make you feel warm and fuzzy on cold days (how can you go wrong with coffee and alcohol?), and basically they’re an all around good thing for people who want to be social without excessive boozing….

Apple Cider Mulling Mix

December 8, 2014 By Food Retro

As I mentioned just earlier to some of my buds, I’ve been busier than Hammy (the squirrel from Over the Hedge) on an energy drink. This may or may not have something to do with a lot of homemade sweet gift drinks being taste tested. In fact this is about the only Christmas activity going…

Caloric Cuvee Giveaway – Cause Plain Wine Glasses Are Boring (ends 11/15)

November 8, 2014 By Food Retro

I have been a really busy slacker lately.  I’ve owed my friend Renee a posting and a giveaway for her awesome glassware. Custom personal glassware is really in right now, and I have cousins on my husbands side who have people beating down their doors for hand-painted stemware. It’s kind of like your personal use…

Instant Chai Tea Latte Powder (an Epic Adventure Story)

October 27, 2014 By Food Retro

Homemade Instant Chai Tea Latte Powder

Have you ever wanted something so badly that you went on an epic adventure? This is that post. Okay, I may be stretching the truth a bit. But sometimes the truth is boring and it’s more fun to embroider. The truth is I sent someone ELSE on an epic adventure on my behalf. Yes, I…

Ginger as Medicine, Bike Wrecks, + Williams-Sonoma Juice Week

August 18, 2014 By Food Retro

This past weekend, I had a massive wipe-out on my bike. Lost my balance starting from a dead stop on a hill, lost control, hit the (square) curb almost square on, very nearly face planted right on the edge. Sorry kiddies, I’d love to make this out to be a PSA about why you should…

Classic Eggnog

December 20, 2013 By Food Retro

Eggnog from scratch

I swear, the best way to discourage yourself from using ready-made products is to read the label. I had a billion and one eggnog baking recipes that I was looking at for the holiday season. Eggnog cookies. Eggnog breads. Eggnog all the things. But eggnog itself  was not on my list of potential things to…

Sun Tea

May 31, 2013 By Food Retro

I do declare, my southern roots are showin’! I asked a friend today if Canadians made sun tea, and I sort of got the impression that it hasn’t worked its way up here.  Well my Northern friends!  It’s easy as cherry pie.  And yes!  We get enough sunlight in Canada to make it. Grab one…
