This cheese board is a dream come true…he’ll know that the minute he graces your doorstep and smells your Parmesan Thyme Shortbread!

What a love potion it is, it works like magic!

There is nothing quite like a nice Burgundy to sip with a medium rare steak with sautéed mushrooms. Get him involved in the cooking for a little bonding and let him man the grill or frying pan!



This is the best crème brulee that I’ve ever tasted…and no, not because its my recipe! It truly is creamy, smooth and silky. I love the vanilla bean essence and cinnamony spice that adds so much flavour and depth to this perfect dessert.

Here’s the rub! Make the rub once – double or triple the recipe and enjoy two or three or however many more times you like! It’s the recipe that keeps on giving. Keep the rub in the fridge and you’re ready to rub for the next romantic interlude!

A quick, simple and ‘effective’ appetizer…to get everyone in the ‘mood!




Chocolate and raspberries, a match made in heaven! This is one of my absolute favourite desserts. It’s so quick and simple to make, it’s sure to impress your significant other! I’d put money on it!

A Taste of Greece. Crispy phyllo triangles stuffed full with feta cheese and herbs.

A Taste of New Orleans. A southern classic spicy seafood treat with a blend of spices and aromatic vegetables.

A Taste of Mexico.Bite-sized baked tortilla pinwheel-style appetizers with roast chicken that are quick and oh so flavourful. These zesty appetizers are delicious and fairly simple to make with few ingredients.

A Taste of Canada’s West Coast. Warm savoury smoked salmon ‘pancakes’ and cream sauce. These are deliciously simple to make. They take a little time to prepare, but are well worth it, especially this afternoon!
