My Favourite Pins This Week
For a crowd-pleasing and really easy dinner, might I suggest these baked chicken tacos? You cook the contents, assemble them all in their crunch taco shells in an ovenproof dish, cheese all over it, and boom- you’ve hmde something that probably everyone is going to love! This also feels like a great dish for when having friends over. You can check out the easy recipe here.
Perfect to bring to a picnic or a barbecue, These pecan pie squares are delicious but not as big a dessert commitment as a slice of pecan pie. I mean, they are definitely pecan pie, but in square form, we can pretend, right? Right. Glad we agree. Find the recipe right over here.
If you love lilacs the way I love lilacs (I am OBSESSED) then we are in lilac season and time for lilac recipes! This lilac lemonade recipe is a great for a hot weekend, and has major spring vibes. Please it’s super easy to make. Check it out here, and enjoy a cool glass of spring.
I adore these farmhouse style knitted dish towels from Purl Soho- what a great summer knitting project, to make a little collection of these. They also seem like they would be great housewarming gifts, don’t you think? Find the free knitting pattern here.
A cute destashing project- this charming cactus coin pouch! Crochet this cutie up (would be a fun ‘just because’ friend gift, too!) and have a sweet place for coins, keys, whatever you need to keep separate in your purse. So many colour possibilities, too! Find the free pattern here.
Have a lovely weekend, friends! The warm weather has finally returned to Toronto, and I am HERE for it. I’m ramping up in preparation for Knit City in Montreal for the May long weekend- and I hope I’ll see you there!
