Easy, delicious, and versatile; what else could you ask for in a chicken recipe? Lemongrass chicken is a staple menu item in Vietnamese restaurants in Canada, and one that my husband gets all the time - which is why I was inspired to recreate it. It is so quick to prepare, kid-friendly, can last you the whole week in the fridge (yay meal prep), and you can grill or broil it! I like to make more than I need because it's such a versatile "all-purpose" protein you can incorporate into other dish. Try putting it into a banh mi sandwich, using it to top a salad, or adding it to a veggie stir fry. The nước chấm dipping sauce is...
Hand washing your white clothes can help them last longer, especially if they’re made out of delicate fabrics. It takes a little more work than using the washing machine, but it’s so worth it. Below we’ll walk you through the whole process step-by-step, from pre-treating stains to hand washing your whites to drying them when you’re finished. [Edit]Steps [Edit]Treating Stains Spot treat stains so they don't set into your clothes. Before washing your white clothes, take a moment to thoroughly look them over and check for any stains or discolorations.

hello hello! I’ve been a little off my regular posting schedule lately because of big life things… I’m moving! In a week. Gah. Long story short, I love my cute little apartment but it is definitely LITTLE and I found a place that is basically this one leveled up – double the size, closer to work, closer to C! Win win. The light will be different (east/north exposure instead of west/south) but the windows are enormous, the ceilings are 10 footers, I’ll have a turret (!) and I’m excited for the change, even though I’ll miss my little jewelbox of a place in japantown. That being said, this is probably the last baked thing to come out of my current...
Hungarian chimney cakes or Kurtos Kalacs, are made from a sweet yeasted dough that is wrapped around cylinder moulds and then cooked. They can be made at home using tin cans or rolling pins as the mould and baked in the oven. If you have travelled to Prague or Budapest then you would have most defiantly seen these being cooked in shops along the streets. I saw them when i visited Prague with my grandma a few years ago. The smell of the sweet dough wafting around the city was amazing. I found this post about them if you want to find out more. The warmth from the heaters they use to cook them was a good excuse to stop...
