Let’s aperitivo & open the holiday food palate with our Festive Burrata Pomegranate Plate! Life is full & fast again, it seems, and DadChef and I spend most of our “down time” being Mom/Dad-Uber to our older two who have more of a social life than we do 😉, but last weekend we intentionally found a few fleeting moments to slow in between the drive-around

Winter Family Fun Guide to Montebello, Québec: Where to STAY, EAT & EXPLORE
Our family’s love for Québec is deep – the breathtaking landscapes, the gastronomy, the ‘joie de vivre’ culture, and the many affordable types of accommodations for our big brood have made it a top choice for us to vacation over recent years. On our way to some of the province’s popular getaway hubs – Mont Tremblant, Québec City and even passing through Ottawa, Ontario before
Candy Cane Fudge Ice Cream Yule Log Recipe | La Cucina di Kerrs
The countdown to Christmas is on, I don’t quite feel “holiday-ready”{what does that even mean?!}, I may be the only blogger without a decked out home and tree, BUT festive food is where I find my joy this time of year and all the other holiday fussing gets tossed aside (my Un-doing!). We’ve got a simple and sweet frozen dessert recipe to share before we
Frittelle di Natale Italian Fried Pizza Dough Balls Holiday Tree | La Cucina di Kerrs
Move over #Timbiebs, this Frittelle di Natale Fried Pizza Dough Balls Holiday Tree is what Italian Christmas dolce dreams are made of! I’m not sure there was a delight for my childhood senses more enticing than a fresh plate of Nonna’s Frittelle (aka Pizza Fritta or Zeppole) freshly made on her kitchen counter! They were the bomb dot com and the smell alone felt like

Caprese Salad D’amore Recipe | La Cucina di Kerrs
Love is the best ingredient… DadChef and I celebrated 15 years of marriage (26 years of couplehood) last week and had some fun in la Cucina making all the lovey dovey foods together. I usually wait until February – the “official” Month of Love – to post these sorts of recipes, but times just feel so heavy right now with all that’s going on in

Italian Panettone Christmas Brunch Recipe | La Cucina di Kerrs
Every year around this very time we do a big decluttering & purge. Out with the things that no longer spark joy before bringing any more “stuff” into the house. I used to do this in January, but something about wanting to welcome a New Year lighter now ignites my my urge to purge earlier. And don’t we all just need to feel a little
Holiday Tree No-Cook Appetizer Recipe | La Cucina di Kerrs
Well friends, we made some holidaying progress this weekend – I finished our Christmas shopping in one swift 1.5 hours swoop (all online & in my PJs – JOMO!) & DadChef laid down the tarp for & did a first flood on our outdoor rink! Now back to what we love most about this season – making all the festive foods & hopefully getting it
Holiday Wreath Appetizer Recipe | La Cucina di Kerrs
Appy December, guys! As heavy as this year has been, it certainly has gone by in a flash. I will not peak your holiday stress more by giving you the countdown, but seriously, I’m feeling a little unprepared. I still have 99% of my Christmas shopping to do, so while it may look like I have my holiday ducks in a row with some of
