@arrowitforward recently sent over some goodies for me to try, and I am hooked. 

Their candles and wax melts are made with soy and coconut wax in small batches with premium quality fragrance oils – and that’s it! The candles also use natural cotton wicks.

They all smell sooo good, but pyjama day candle might be my fav of the bunch. It smells like fresh bread. The entire household thought I had baked something when I was burning it. 😅🥖

Self-care looks different for everyone. While it’s so much more than just a relaxing bath, a deep soak is an important part of my process – it helps me disconnect and decompress at the end of each week.

I was #gifted these products to try out, but I think they’ll become a repeat purchase. The blend of stevia, thyme, cedarwood and bergamot essential oils is so relaxing. 

If you want to try out this new scent for yourself, you can find it at @shoppersdrugmart!

Did you know that most Canadians drink more coffee Did you know that most Canadians drink more coffee than any other beverage? I can’t function without a fresh cup in the morning, and I also usually have a cafe latte or a cup of decaf later in the day too, so this came as no surprise to me! ☕️

Unfortunately though, this does add lot of waste to our landfills. @preschoice recently launched sustainable packaging that is estimated to offset hundreds of metric tonnes of waste to our landfills per year – even if you’re not a coffee person, I think that’s something everyone will love! 🙌♻️

What’s your go-to brew?

It’s been a hot minute since I’ve been on here It’s been a hot minute since I’ve been on here! Every winter after the holidays I like to take a little break from content creation for a few weeks to rest and reset. 

This year’s break was a little longer than I had originally intended, but that’s ok. I was feeling a little overwhelmed and just needed a bit of extra time before diving back in. 💕

I have started to work quietly behind the scenes and am super excited about some things that are in the works for this year! I’m looking forward to creating content for you again, and I have some fun brand collabs and giveaways headed your way. In the meantime, here is an old photo because it’s cute and I’m still editing some of the new content 🙈🙈.

How has your 2022 been so far?

I was recently #gifted this phone case from Caseco. I’ve been using it for a little over a week and am truly impressed with the quality of it 🤩. It’s also eco-friendly and made from recycled material!

(P.S. if you’re in the market for a new phone case they also gave me a code for 15% off! It’s “Kaitlyn15”.)

Banana Pumpkin Bread (Gluten Free)

I’ve been pretty absent from here lately, but I’m back! I’m in my final year of my program, and since my program is a condensed/accelerated one I’m definitely feeling the heat. When I do have some spare time, I have been spending it with Matt, my family, pups and baking of course!

Pumpkin is definitely one of my favourite flavours of fall. I love it all; pumpkin pie, lattes, ice cream, grilled pumpkin, you name it! Another one of my favourite treats has always been banana bread, so I decided to try and combine the two! The results: Ah-mazing.

I didn’t really know how this would turn out when I started it – I was a little worried that the pumpkin would make it too soft and that the bread wouldn’t bake properly with the gluten free flour. I was extremely happy and surprised with the results! This recipe makes two loafs of the most moist, cake-like banana bread. It’s amazing. I’m not just saying that either, my family said that it might be their new favourite treat. And lets be really, family never lies, right? I mean, they’re totally not biased! (Okay, they probably are. But I’m just repeating what they said here!)

Since our family is lactose intolerant in addition to being gluten free, I opted to use lactose free milk and cream; you don’t have to do this but just know that it works just as well if you do! I’m sure you could use regular, non-gluten free flour for this recipe as well for all of you people with regular tummies – I would just not use the xantham gum if you go this route.

Anyways, let’s hop to it!

Total Time
1 hr 30 min
Bread
  1. 1 ½ c gluten free all purpose flour
  2. 1 tsp baking soda
  3. 1 tsp baking powder
  4. 1/2 tsp xanthan gum
  5. 2 c pumpkin puree
  6. 1/4 c cream
  7. 1/4 c milk
  8. 1 ½ c pecans, chopped
  9. 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  10. 3 bananas
  11. 1/3 c melted butter
  12. 3/4 c sugar
  13. 3 large eggs
  14. pinch of salt
Glaze
  1. ¼ c cream cheese, softened
  2. ¼ c icing sugar
  3. water
Bread
  1. Mix the banana and butter together first
  2. Add all dry ingredients and mix
  3. Add in pumpkin puree and pecans, mix again
  4. Cover bread pans in tin foil (this makes clean-up easier), shiny side down
  5. Bake for 1 hour at 350F
Icing
  1. Beat together cream cheese and icing sugar (electric mixers work best for this) in a large bowl
  2. Add water 1 tsp at a time until your glaze reaches your desired thickness - I used about 2 tsps
  3. Once the bread is cool, pour the glaze over top and garnish with more chopped pecans
Tips
  1. Use lactose free cream and milk if you're lactose intolerant like me
  2. You can use coconut oil instead of butter to make it even healthier!

And there you have it! What are some of your favourite fall treats? I’d love to know! Last weekend I made Apple Crisp Pancakes, so stay tuned for that recipe sometime soon as well.

I went back and forth between getting this sweater from @cavologybrand in the black & tan version to match Ruffi, or the tri version to honour our sweet girl Kodee (which is what I ended up doing!) – she always “helped” with wrapping by sitting on top of the paper whenever you tried to roll it out and loved to nap under the Christmas tree post present opening🎄.
