This is a blog run by two sisters. Erin is the big sister who lives in New York, and Silvi is the little sister who lives in Vancouver.
They both love to cook! They created this blog to share & store recipes for the food they make.
Erin is a professional puppeteer, storyteller and arts educator who loves comfort food. She has, because of health issues, been re-teaching herself to cook without gluten for the last five years, so she usually shares instructions for how to make her favourite dishes both with and without gluten.
Silvi is an urban gardener, a skilled theater craftsperson, a musician and an apprentice chocolatier. She is a vegetarian and she likes to improvise using seasonal ingredients and alchemical kitchen techniques.
Remember, if you want to make a recipe but don’t have some of the exact ingredients, just substitute for something you have. Cooking is fun!
We’ve also included a page with cookbooks we each use, and ingredients we keep in our pantries for spur-of-the-moment cooking.




Yay!
Looks beautiful Silvi! I will have to try some of these yummy looking recipes out. Om nom nom nom. Happy eating!
Ooh hooray! Hope you like!
Love,
Silvi

What a wonderful idea…..! You two are awesome. Being friends with your Mom, and having known your Father, it’s no wonder you two are full of love and creativity.
