Mini Pineapple Upside Down Cake

Bye bye baby… – Pineapple Upside Down Mini-Cakes

November 14, 2011 by EmmaEats

Today is my Emma’s birthday. She’s four. Already. I’m not quite certain how the time has flown by so quickly but here we are. She’s in junior kindergarten, has friends she’s made without me introducing her and has decided that when she grows up, she’d like to be a dancer, minstrel and paediatrician. We had a birthday celebration this past weekend and she requested it be a luau. The weather gods cooperated and at one point, we ended up with […]

A few times this past year, I made some cupcakes for her, including this incredible set of Chocolate Cherry Cupcakes from Nigella.

On the 5th day of Christmas… The countdown continues as do the countless jobs, errands and chores on the lead up to the holidays. This year, we have three homemade advent calendars, each made to hopefully let the recipients take a break (even for a moment) to enjoy the holidays. My favourite one is the 24 Things I Love About You calendar. 💕 What are some of your family traditions? How are you keeping sane through your preparations? Hope it’s been a fantastic start to your holiday season! xo #homemade #handmade #adventcalendar #stopandsmelltheroses #24daysofchristmas #christmas #family #tradition #christmascrafts #advent #happyholidays #festive #tistheseason #livemoremagic #momlife #fbcigers #igerstoronto

It’s not officially Fall until we get out to the apple orchard. Our annual trek took us back to Carl Laidlaw Orchards - such a beautiful setting and so much fun! . Just as apple picking has become an annual tradition, so has baking with the bounty. This Apple Galette is so easy and with the added drizzle of melted caramel was over.the.top! .

Fall is prime baking weather. By now, everyone is craving comfort food that we skipped through the gorgeous summer months. In our home, this return to baking is welcomed with open arms and is the perfect way to warm up the kitchen on cool Autumn mornings. . I realize it’s only the middle of the week, but I’m already thinking about the weekend and these cheese biscuits. While we tend to enjoy them with breakfast, they are simply delightful with a bowl of soup at lunch or with snacks and tea — as long as you have some left! . #delicious #yummy #instagood #instafood #realfood #homecooking #bakersofinstagram #bakersgonnabake #homebaking #homemade #bakefromscratch #snack #breakfast #foodoftheday #foodstagram #cheddar #timetoeat #onthetable #fallbaking #livethelittlethings #fbcigers #igerstoronto #canadianfoodies #healthyish #waitingfortheweekend #weekendvibes
