Bacon Vodka Caesar: A Complete Meal

Bacon Vodka Caesar: A Complete Meal

By //  by Dee Brun Leave a Comment

Not really sure what I can say here besides, BACON! BOOZE! How about, “You’re welcome?” Yes, that sums things up nicely. Now go enjoy responsibly. Are you still here? If you’re new to the drinks world — or not Canadian — a standard Caesar is made with vodka, clamato juice, hot sauce, and Worcestershire sauce served over ice in a salt-rimmed glass with a piece of celery as a garnish. It’s a serving of booze and vegetables all in one. Caesars have been a favourite cocktail since the 1970s …

Instant Chocolate Chai Latte – Yes, Chocolate.

By //  by Anne Radcliffe 1 Comment

Over on the home blog, Instant Chai Latte Powder is doing pretty well, mostly thanks to the pinning powers of some of my colleagues here! So naturally, it seemed only fair that I return the favour, and what better way to do that than with the follow-up concept that one of my local friends has been demanding asking ever so nicely for?

By //  by Dee Brun Leave a Comment

Someone told be the other day how many shopping days were left until Christmas and I nearly fell over. How did this happen? Where was I? I hate when holiday hell just sneaks up on you like that. I need time to get my brain ready long before I can think of actually making plans and shopping for the season. On top of all that, this year we are now new owners of a bed and breakfast. Can you say mental break down? I decided to put a few things into perspective when it comes to this year's holiday …

Thursday Night Cocktail – Canadian Whisky and Maple Cider

By //  by Life In Pleasantville 4 Comments

Here at Life in Pleasantville we understand that some weeks just cannot be over soon enough. Especially now, as the days get shorter and our waking hours are book ended by darkness, sometimes a gal needs a little medicinal to get her through those especially rough days. It's not even about the alcohol, really. It's more about taking a moment to sit down, put your feet up, and enjoy something that you can legitimately tell your children "I could go to prison if I shared this with you." So, don't …

Quick and Easy Hot Apple Cider

By //  by Kelly Given Williams Leave a Comment

Picture this: it’s a crisp fall evening and you are getting ready to settle in under a blanket and watch your favourite TV show or movie. Or maybe you prefer YouTube videos of the cute little goat knocking down his playmates ; regardless - I don’t judge you, you don’t judge me. Perhaps you would love a hot bevy, but it’s too late for caffeine. You think about all the Pinterest recipes for hot apple cider made in a crockpot or simmered on the stove for hours, but it’s already dark and like so …
