Summer Saturdays Vol. 12

by Liz Heather in Summer Saturdays


Okay, this week I feel like I might actually be in that New Yorker cover above (I’m in Cape Breton at the moment).

BAKING

I air-fried the garlic chicken wings from the butcher section at Longo’s (the not frozen ones) and good god were they incredible. I used the Nando’s buffalo wing sauce on them afterward and holy hell. I am not a wing person, but these may have changed who I am fundamentally.

COOKING

I realized that I cook way less in the summer, which might be great. I do love doing it, but it’s nice to take seasons off.

CRAVING

Seafood chowder.

DRINKING

Free prosecco from the Millcroft Inn. The only time it doesn’t give me a headache is when it’s free, I can’t explain this logic.

EATING

I thought that Whole Foods was the only place to find good heirloom tomatoes right now, but Longo’s has them and they’re such a good price. (Am I sponsored by Longo’s? In my dreams I am.)

EXPERIENCING

The beauty that is Cape Breton.

Cape Breton, Nova Scotia

LISTENING

It’s been a Taylor Swift week.

LOVING

I need to find this coat from the And Just Like That finale immediately.

SHOPPING

I found someone on Etsy who created a replica of Baby Dog for our wedding cake and they did such an incredible job. The hand-painted colouring is insanely good.

Baby Dog!

WATCHING

Nathan and I saw Weapons and I liked it! Not as much as Barbarian, but still pretty fun.

WEARING

Still living in the Aerie Smoothez bodysuits.

Bury me in a bodysuit, I’m serious

Summer Saturdays Vol. 10

by Liz Heather in Summer Saturdays


BAKING

Can someone please make me this pistachio cake?

COOKING

The best recipes of summer.

CRAVING

An A&W teen burger in a lettuce wrap. Nothing better.

DRINKING

Red sangria forever. I’m not complicated.

EATING

Red snapper and baby scallops, who am I? I swear to god you turn 40 and every fish in the sea becomes sexier.

I don’t look at anyone the way I look at red snapper

EXPERIENCING

My first time at the Millcroft Inn and Spa in Caledon and it was too lovely. I’ve never found an outdoor pool that I don’t love.

Millcroft Inn, Caledon

LISTENING

Our old Baby Dog playlist (that consists of songs that we would change the words to so they’d be focused around her life and I won’t go into any more than that because the things that couples do shouldn’t be discussed in public).

LOVING

The gluten free sourdough bread from Schar is pretty good at attempting to be real bread - but honestly I’ll take any bread substitution if it allows me to cover it with an heirloom tomato drenched in sea salt.

SHOPPING

I’ve just started using the mini version of the Dr. Jart Color Correcting cream (mixed with Dr. Dennis Gross moisturizer) so we’ll see what happens. It seems pretty great so far.

WATCHING

The newest Naked Gun and it was perfectly all right! My 11 year old nephew loved it and honestly that made me like it even more.

WEARING

I bought the most perfect black evening bag from Simons. Excited to own it for about thirty years.

My two favourites - Marla and my black bag
