I was getting a post together about the homemade sprinkles I had been trialling when my sister-in-law called to ask if I could help her out with some CupCakes for my nephew's school. The wife and newborn son of a teacher at the school were in a terrible accident a few weeks ago and tomorrow the school is holding a CupCake fundraiser benefiting the family. A whole lot of year 3 boys are going to be on a sugar high tomorrow. Hopefully they understand what their little community … [Read more...]
It’s a fine line…
...between giving into the urge of letting out bits of progress, and holding it back for an all out launch. 84th & 3rd @ThePantry is so close to hitting market [and being let loose on cake lovers everywhere], but I am trying to keep it contained for a decent release and not just one thing at a time. That said, a peek at what has been going on is of course allowed! The little bits and pieces are just about sending me loopy and I have a bit of a going-in-circles feeling right now - … [Read more...]
Spelt Plum Cake
So when we started the detox my first concern [obviously] was how I could make cake that we are ‘allowed’ to eat. This was followed very soon after by how I could make pizza happen but that we'll get to later. I have determined that I love the thought of cake as much as cake itself.

Day by day
So yesterday was one of those days where you just want to pack it all in. Why am I doing this again? and why isn't anything going right? and just plain grrrrrrrr. I haven't one for a while and I'm getting better at knowing that the tide will turn (and getting better at just taking a deep breath), and after a good run and cup of tea last night and a good yoga session this morning we're on an upswing. Today, things are coming together again. And the EveryDay Muffin Mix that has been staring … [Read more...]
It’s not all yoga and lunches…
Where in I share where 84th & 3rd is heading...[or aka it's my blog and I'll ramble if I want to] Well, I started the site because every company needs a website these days. And this blog has, till this point, really been the only element of activity seen by most of the outside world [outside world defined by the 9 or so people that look at it from time to time, Hi Mom]. For me, that is ok as there is a flurry of other stuff in the background keeping me more than busy. But I figured that … [Read more...]
Much better than the alternative.
So for the past few weeks I have spent far too much time sourcing packaging for the lovely mixes @ThePantry. But today, I was testing Cocoa Powder – yep, it's just like it sounds – Testing.Cocoa.Powder. … [Read more...]
