You may have heard me mention at times, my sister Micki and her delectable food gifts which she purveys from her kitchen.
After leaving the corporate world of banking, she began baking and cooking as a mindless refuge to the rigours of a demanding career. Today almost ten years later, she brings much happiness to customers all over Niagara with her delicious cookies and sweets during the Christmas season.
Jars of condiments such as red pepper jelly, and apricot pear conserve with Poire William gleam in her tiny kitchen.
After years of collecting vintage kitchen accessories and utensils, her cooking area is a visual dream as well as contributing other sensory delights.
During this time of year, literally thousands of cookies are all hand made using only the best ingredients and home made techniques acquired through hours of trial and error...
Every cookie is a delicious as it is beautiful.
Biscotti, hand dipped in chocolate are bursting with lightly toasted pecans, walnuts and hazelnuts...an old family recipe of my Mom's. They are a favourite among her customers.
....dozens waiting to cool and then beautifully packaged in tins or gift trays......
Every known vintage kitchen utensil has been carefully collected and displayed, and of course put into use as well......
Semi sweet chocolate waiting to be tempered after it is carefully measured by weight.
Cake domes from the 50's, in perfect condition, make baking in this kitchen a treat!
Just a few of the numerous cookbooks which Micki uses for inspiration and information.
Never too many ideas to gleen from!
A view of her spotlessly clean work table. You will notice two vintage theatre seats where she peruses her cookbooks, or just takes a much needed coffee break.....
Individual pots de creme served in espresso cups, with a white chocolate dipped cherry as garnish, served at a recent holiday party which she catered.
Spiced pecans presented in a vintage compote dish, add a bit of dash to the bar, and are a perfect nibbler with cocktails.
Prosciutto and figs, a simple yet satisfying antipasto.
Cheese boards are a simple alternative to fussy appetizers for today's busy hostess.
Thinly sliced eggplant, cut with a mandolin and then breaded and lighly fried till crisp are a favourite on the antipasto tower...I call them eggplant chips...
also a family recipe from our Mother.
Hand formed chocolate truffles, rolled in chopped pistachios and coconut, make a sweet finale to a
sumptuous holiday buffet.
Although Micki loves to cook, her greatest achievements are her sweet confections, which are very sought after, especially during the holidays.....

I Think They Created This Just For Me! (Yes, this will be about coffee...)
{I have this picture mounted in the kitchen area of the shop office...} Did you know that March is officially National Caffeine Awareness Month? Are you thinking I must surely be the spokesperson for it as Deb Kennedy of Hummadeedledee suggested I could be...? (I'm available, call me!) :) In view of this, here are a few tidbits (coffee-related, of course) that I thought you might enjoy courtesy of My Recipes.com . The Perks: Health Benefits of Coffee Get the latest information about the ways that drinking coffee can improve your health. Photo: Lee Harrelson; Styling: Virginia Cravens Houston By: Laurie Herr When it comes to life's necessities, many of us would say a good cup of coffee ranks pretty darned high – right up there with shelter, friends, and comfortable shoes. But there's more to love about your morning java than its alluring aroma or friendly kick. Once maligned (too much caffeine! the devil's brew!), coffee is now being praised as a kind of health food,
