Happy family Day from our crazy family to yours!

Even though Wylie still thinks we're on Vancouver time at 4:30 am, there's nowhere else I'd rather be (except at 430 am 🤪) #ohana .

My sister and I have lived apart for 20 years now.

My sister and I have lived apart for 20 years now. I actually can't believe that as I type it.⁣
⁣
She moved away for a soccer scholarship in Texas when I was going into grade 10. I remember finding out she was going to go and crying for weeks. It was seriously worse than any break up I've ever had. Haha. ⁣
⁣
My sister has always been my best friend. She has seen me for me, seen the best in me even when I couldn't, never any judgement, and a connection that is beyond words. We can look at each other and know exactly what's going on. ⁣
⁣
For both of us, our journeys into motherhood were trying, and now we're here with our baby boys who are just 3 months apart. It never ceases to amaze me how the universe pulls through 💫⁣
⁣
Even though we live apart weve found our ways to make the most of the time we have together (and lots of facetime. Haha) I am so grateful to be able to come visit her in this beautiful paradise and this trip is extra special because the whole fam is here!! Even our Mom and Dad! It's been 3 years since we've all been here at the same time!⁣
⁣
For those of you with family or loved ones far away how do you manage?? I'm gonna need all the tips I can get when we go home! But for now...time to enjoy this 5am wake up call from Wylder 😜

Easy Blender Chocolate Tarts for all your Valentin

Easy Blender Chocolate Tarts for all your Valentines, Galentines, or you know, just because everyone deserves to dip in to a nice creamy chocolate tart! ⁣

I have to say this is one of my proudest recipe hacks (all thanks for my brother in law of all people!) thank you to his firehall dinners, these delicious tarts were born. ⁣
⁣
I’ve made so many versions of these over the years because they are soo friggin good!! And every single time I bite into one I cannot believe the secret to the creaminess is tofu!Trust me, you cannot taste it at all and it gives the most insane decadent texture! ⁣
⁣
How to Make// ⁣
⁣
🍫 Mix together ½ cup melted butter (or coconut oil) + 1.5 cups @westernfamilyca graham cracker crumbs. ⁣
⁣
🍫 Press into one large, or 12 small tart pans/molds and bake for 12 mins at 350F. Let cool before adding filling 🍫Melt 1 ¼ cups @westernfamilyca dark semi-sweet melting chocolate with 1-2 Tbsp coconut oil (unrefined if you don’t want the coconutty taste)⁣
⁣
🍫 Add to a high powered blender with 350g firm tofu, ¼ cup milk of choice, 1 tsp vanilla. ⁣
⁣
🍫 Blend until super smooth and creamy.⁣
⁣
🍫 It will be a bit chunky at first, just keep blending and add more milk if needed. You can also add more chocolate or a dash of maple syrup if you like it a bit sweeter! ⁣
⁣
I wish I could send each of you one of these to your doorstep! Haha but for now, this recipe will just have to do. ⁣
⁣
❤ Who would you share this dessert with!! Tag them below and let’s pretend we’re all eating them together! Xo ⁣

Want this recipe?? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣

Want this recipe?? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣
Welllll you're in luck! ( I had a strong feeling you would say yes! haha) This little treat is coming your way very soon!⁣
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣
One of the things I have realized I need in my life more and more is creativity. Recipe development + food photography and styling are quite possibly my favorite ways of expressing that.⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣
I had so much fun shooting and editing these today and it was a reminder that even though the Mom guilt creeps in sometimes when I'm working (for the record, it is real!) I am truly a better Mom, wife, human being, when I make time for the things that make me feel alive.⁣
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣
Thank YOU for letting me live out this dream of mine and get to share my passions with you!! When I see you trying one of my recipes and enjoying it, hopefully making your life a little easier at the same time, there is little that compares. Ok...maybe Wylder doing pretty much anything. haha but you know what I'm saying.⁣ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣
Can't wait to share these with you! Bonus - they are shockingly easy to make! ⁣
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⁣
What is something that you love to do that you will make more time for this week!?⁣
