Lavender infused cream with a teensy bit of sugar. I’ve been in love with Starbucks’s honeycomb lavender iced lattes for the last couple of weeks. My little afternoon pick-me up and calming remedy. Lavender is of course most well-known for its calming effects. I’m heading into another couple busy weeks at work again too. Wanted to make something for the evenings (or mornings) that incorporated a little lavender in it. And there’s nothing quite like some fresh Canadian blueberries with a little cream. This just happens to be infused with lavender. I can see this going in some lattes at home, or even on top of a little oatmeal. . . . #lavender #lavenderrecipes #blueberries #evenings #sundayevening #thehub_food #wherewomancook  #foodiesofinstagram  #darktablemood #darkfoodphoto #foodfluffer #thegalleryoflight #ihavethisthingfordarkness #yegfoodphotographer #yegphotographer  #fbcigers  #beautifulfood #nikonnofilter #nikonCA #f52grams #hautecuisines #hocsupperclub  #eeeeeats #moodygrams #foodstyling #tv_stilllife
Another shot of the agaricus campestris mushroom from last weekend’s @foodworkshops foraging workshop. Sunny day in #yeg today.

Walleye fish that my neighbours caught a couple weekends back. I remember fishing with my grandpa as kid on some of our annual family camping trips. I also remember the time he slammed my fingers shut in the trunk of the car on one of those trips…. like fully shut. I distinctly remember how much pain I was in to this day. Thankfully it didn’t stop me from enjoying fishing. And I’m so happy one of my neighbours is getting us (our little cul de sac crew) out and about fishing. I didn’t go on this trip, but enjoyed the post-fishing eats. . . . #fish #freshlycaught #walleye #albertafood #explorealberta #fishin #thehub_food #wherewomancook  #foodiesofinstagram  #darktablemood #darkfoodphoto #foodfluffer #ihavethisthingfordarkness #yegfoodphotographer #yegphotographer  #fbcigers  #beautifulfood #nikonnofilter #nikonCA #f52grams #hautecuisines #hocsupperclub  #eeeeeats #moodygrams #flashphotography #foodphotographyandstyling
#partner Garlic scape pesto recipe is up on the blog! Made sans cheese, so 100% dairy free, but with lots of bright lemony flavour. I look forward to garlic scape season every year. This recipe is so versatile too. From pasta, pizza, sandwiches and grilled chicken and veggies. You could probably use it everyday of the week and not get sick of it. Garlic scapes are also one of the first ingredients to hit the CSA boxes for Grey Arrow Farms. I’m excited to partner with @greyarrowfarm this summer to bring you 12 veggie-forward recipes over the next three weeks. Each recipe featuring an amazing vegetable from the farm. Check out their IG page for some beautiful behind the scenes photography from the farm. Andrea is quite the photographer. . . . . #garlicscapes #pesto #garlicscaperecipe #vegetables #gardenlife #eatloca #eatlocalyeg #grearrowfarm #freshfood #foodiesofinstagram  #darktablemood #darkfoodphoto #foodfluffer #ihavethisthingfordarkness #yegfoodphotographer #yegphotographer  #fbcigers  #beautifulfood #nikonnofilter #nikonCA #f52grams #hautecuisines #hocsupperclub  #eeeeeats #locallygrown #feedfeed @thefeedfeed
Spent the morning on a foraging workshop in the Edmonton Rivervalley with @foodworkshops. Thank you @kevinkossowan for sharing your knowledge! All this rain sure is making the mushrooms happy. First time picking fairy rings and agaricus bisporus mushrooms. Also first time picking in a quaintly that allowed me to make a delicious pasta dinner with afterwards, plus a small quantity to dehydrate. @untamedfeast I understand you may have something to do with the fair rings as well ;) My mind was particularly blown on seeing wild asparagus, wild onions and wild horseradish. All on walk ways that hundreds of people walk passed everyday. It’s amazing the food that grows all around us. Amongst some of the other things spotted included, burdock, hazelnuts, saskatoons, high bush cranberries, cow parsnip, cattail, wild roses, and a couple puff balls (probably forgetting something too). Additional pictures in my stories. . . . . #foraged #foraging #mushrooms #wildfood #foodlife #edmontonrivervalley #mushroomtrain #chasinglight #darktablemood #darkfoodphoto #foodfluffer #ihavethisthingfordarkness #yegfoodphotographer #yegphotographer #fairrings #agaricus #canada #fbcigers #yegfoodie  #foodart #beautifulfood #nikonnofilter #nikonCA #f52grams #hautecuisines #hocsupperclub  #eeeeeats #stilllife #foodpics
Love me the apricot season! Playing with my food before it became apricot jam. BTS in my stories. Shooting with a new honeycomb softbox that makes the most amazing side light (at least for this newby flash gal).

Something a little different for this Tuesday evening.  A candid shot from my neighbourhood BBQ this past sunday (plus a studio shot of the second rise). A couple of my neighbours went out fishing Sunday morning and caught some walleye. So the three houses/families that were still around for the long weekend ended up eating a pretty spectacular meal of freshly caught fish, homemade chips, home grown salad and these delightful dinner rolls. After finishing up a shot for a client, I wanted to decompress from the week with a little bread making. I was aiming for hamburger buns, but my fresh was taking its time….and/or perhaps wasn’t the freshest it could have been. Nevertheless, the bun recipe from @richardbertinet cookbook Crumb was delicious. Going to try again with super fresh yeast next time to see if I can nail the size. Bread making is my outlet sometimes. . . . . #bread #realbread #realbreadalberta #homemadebread #doughrising  #darktablemood #darkfoodphoto #ihavethisthingfordarkness #breadbosses #yegfoodphotographer #canada #fbcigers #bbga #foodshare #igbreadclub #flourwatersalt #yegfoodie  #foodart #beautifulfood #beautifulcuisines #f52grams #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #hautecuisines #hocsupperclub  #eeeeeats
The vibrant colours of the edible life in the garden. Dill weed, kale flowers, nasturtium flowers, chive blossoms and some fennel frond. Happy dance . . . . #summerlife #naturesbeauty #nasturtium #ilvoegardening #gardenlife #darktablemood #darkfoodphoto #ihavethisthingfordarkness #yeg #canada #fbciggers #canadianfoodie #yegfoodie #yegfood  #foodart #beautifulfood #beautifulcuisines #herbsandspices #f52grams #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #hautecuisines #hocsupperclub #moodygrams #eeeeeats #nikonca #nikonnofilter
Lilac season is coming to a close in these parts of the world. Still a bunches hanging on my tree, but I’d suspect they’ll be gone by the end of the weekend. I’ve managed to preserve a big batch of lilac infused sugar, plus a couple jars of lilac jelly. Recipe (more like instructions) are up on the blog for the sugar, plus some photographs to inspire you for using the sugar, like these lilac sugar dusted doughnuts filled with pistachio cream 🤤. #lilacs #lilacrecipes #infusedsugar #sweettooth #foodideas  #yeg #canada #springtime #fbciggers #canadianfoodie #yegfoodie #ihavethisthingfordarkness #yegfood  #kitchenmoments #foodart #beautifulfood #f52grams #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #hautecuisines #darktablemood #hocsupperclub #moodygrams #eeeeeats #nikonca #nikonnofilter #preservingsummer #foodfluffer
As summer heats up, burger season is in full swing. I’ve partnered with @padernokitchenware to bring you this simple and satisfying summertime recipe. Salmon Burgers with Crispy Onion & Fried Dill Pickles. Recipe link in bio. My secret to super moist salmon burgers is using mayonnaise instead of an egg as the binder #itsacookingthing. The recipe itself is also gluten-free to allow for flexible summer entertaining options. Pulling everything together––plus clean up–– was a breeze with PADERNO’s new Kitchen Appliances. YES, even the deep fryer! It has an automatic oil drainage system and storage unit for used oil. #sponsored #summerbbq #burgers #salmonrecipes #yeg #canada #summerrecipes #fbciggers #canadianfoodie #yegfoodie #yegfood #summerlife #BBQ #getgrilling #friedpickles #dillpickles #kitchenmoments #foodart #beautifulfood #f52grams #thefeedfeed #hautecuisines #darktablemood #hocsupperclub
Good morning Monday. A little lilac tea to start the week. I found this beautiful tea cup at a vintage store this past weekend. It made me ponder why I don’t drink out of fancy old tea cups more often. This guy might make its way to the office with me. I can have fancy coffee, in a fancy cup and hopefully it will be magically and make me forget about the work piling up on the side of me desk. 🤔 . . . . #foodporn #eeeeeats #lr_taste #foreverfaffing #hautecuisines #lilacs #lilactea #teatime #tea #darktablemood #hocsupperclub #thehub_food #foodfluffer #manmakecoffee #fancyteacup #yeg #yegdrinks #nikon_canada #d750 #moodygrams #darkfoodphotography #yeglife #yegphotographer #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #ihavethisthingfordarkness #chasinglight #thegalleryoflightfeature #gloobyfood
It’s shaping up to be a summer of “quick, mow the lawn before it rains again”. Nevertheless, I’ll be sipping and savouring the flavours of summer. Just like these Alberta wild roses. Made a small batch of orange rose butter to enjoy on some toast and a drizzle of honey. Recipe is in the archives on the blog. It’s a summer treat I look forward to every year...Now I’m off to find a bread recipe to try :) . . . . #albertarose #explorealberta #eatalberta #wildroses #rose #flowersofig #flowers #edibleflowers #fbcigers #eeeeeats #beautifulcuisines #f52grams #yegfoodie #foodfluffer #hocsupperclub #darktablemood #tv_stilllife #still_life_gallery #flowerstagram #naturesbeauty #blooms #darkfoodphoto #nikon_canada #lr_taste #feedfeed @thefeedfeed #foodart
