I’m leaving you with some flowers, I’m off on holiday! Happy Easter and happy Passover to those who celebrate!

I’m taking part in Teti’s @tetisflakes #10daysforagalette challenge with this onion and mushroom galette otherwise known as whatever-is-in-your-fridge-galette. Aren’t galettes so great for that? But the best part was Teti’s pastry recipe; I used white whole wheat flour one-for-one and it was flaky pastry perfection! : : : : : : #galette #savoury #foodblog #foodblogger #recipe #flakypastry #ourfoodstories #forkyeah #mushroom #onmytable #darktablemood #thesupperclubmag #cookingtime #baking #mtlfood #514 #feedfeed #feedfeedbaking #bakingtime #bakinglove #challenge #flatlaylove #inmykitchen #moodyfood #montreal #foodwithoutborders

Tiramisu is one of those cakes that gets a pass for being in a lasagna pan.... still, I’m happy to now know how to make an elegant looking version. Head over to Rodica’s @rodica_godlewski blog to see how easy it is! We used parchment paper and an 8 inch springform pan and it worked out perfectly. (Those branches... that’s what spring looks like here atm 😬) : : : : : : : : : : : : : #tiramisu #cake #italianfood #italianrecipe #darkmoodyphotography #foodphotography #foodstyling #lightandshadow #mtlfood #f52grams #lifeandthyme #thesupperclubmag #darktablemood #ihavethisthingfordarkness #thehub_food #foodfluffer #foodblogfeed #stilllifephotography #thefeedfeed #ourfoodstories #foodartblog #eatprettythings #springmood #nothingisordinary #forkyeah #simplethingsmadebeautiful #montreal #mtlmoments

Same cake as yesterday, different styling. : #meanwhileincanada All I want is to wash the winter jackets and snow pants and put them far away so that my vestibule can look like 5 people live here instead of 25. : : : : : : : : : #montreal #lifeincanada #waitingforspring #stillwaitingforspring #cake #lemoncake #homemade #yum #foodpics #foodphotography #foodphotographyandstyling #feedfeed #fromwhereistand #onmytable #darktablemood #thesupperclubmag #heresmyfood #f52grams #baking #indianfoodbloggers #desiblogger #beautifulcuisines #littlestoriesofmylife #myquietbeauty #simpleandstill

I’m really liking this corner of the house for food photos though husband doesn’t seem to be amused that my hobbies are taking over the house. 🙄 Honestly though, I’m nothing more than a nerdy science geek 🤓🤓 at heart so even I don’t understand this fascination with food photography! 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ : : : : : : : #lemoncake #waitingforspring #printemps #wholesome #homemade #baking #feedfeedbaking #thebakefeed #bakersofinstagram #thesupperclubmag #darktablemood #thehub_food #foodfluffer #lifeandthyme #f52grams #foodblogfeed #beautifulcuisines #mtlfood #montrealblogger #montrealphotographer #stilllife #foodstyling #stilllifephotography #theartofslowliving #simplelife #allthingsofbeauty

The temperature is hovering just above freezing at the moment and half my garden is still covered in snow.... but yay we’re finally hitting double-digit weather (that’s above 50 deg F) this weekend, that’s practically beach weather here! Wishing you a wonderful one! xx : : : : : : : : #shortbreadcookies #sablés #friday #meanwhileincanada #readyfortheweekend #tulipseason #spring #springishere #printemps #wholesome #homemade #baking #feedfeedbaking #thebakefeed #bakersofinstagram #thesupperclubmag #darktablemood #thehub_food #foodfluffer #lifeandthyme #f52grams #foodblogfeed #beautifulcuisines #mtlfood #montrealblogger #514eats #stilllife #theartofslowliving

I did my best to make this look good. What is it? It’s a block of jaggery, unrefined cane sugar..... used since ancient times in India for sweetening as well as for Ayurvedic remedies. It’s been one of my go-tos as we become refined sugar-free. : ⠀⠀ This idea of using artwork in the background comes from dear Rodica @rodica_godlewski See her Tiramisu blog post for some beautiful examples. : : : : : : : : #jaggery #refinedsugarfree #organic #unprocessedfood #wholesome #homemade #gur #traditionalfood #foodsofindia #indianfood #ayurveda #ayurvedicmedicine #healthyeating #indianfoodbloggers #desi_diaries #storiesofindia #incredibleindia #moodygrams #indiapictures #indiaclicks #travelrealindia #indiansweets #desifood #foodwithoutborders #foodasmedicine #stilllife #stilllifephotography ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ ⠀⠀
