Follow my blog with Bloglovin Things are exploding in my galley again today folks, thanks to my friend Joan for the initial idea of JOAN’S TACO BOMBS that started me on this bomb-making quest. We now have one more lunch, dinner or appetizer type bomb to add to the repertoire with SPANAKOPITA BOMBS for a taste bud explosion. And we have BREAKFAST BOMBS to begin the day with a bang . Now for a little dessert bomb to perfectly round out this…
Our apple trees at R.E.D. by the Sea are finished for the season but there are still lots and lots of great Annapolis Valley apples here in Nova Scotia ready for the picking. So, with guests visiting in the next few days this Galley Kat has been busy…I repeat…busy! ….preparing goodies to welcome them to our little home by the sea. This recipe is not for the diet conscious…I mean, butter and sugar and that’s just the caramel base. Then…
My this month went quickly didn’t it? And here we are again into fall and the beautiful weather that comes with it…and October. October! I barely can remember what happened in September, the days just flew by. I can see by the most viewed recipes that you too are getting into the cooler weather frame of mind with spicey sauces, apple dishes, belly warming chicken and comforting pasta.

I have a real mixed bag of most searched for recipes for you this month. Simply click on the caption below each image to access the recipe. Top pick and one of our own favourites too, Greek Lamb Stew. Greek Lamb Stew This Peach Bread Pudding came in at a close second and very timely with fresh local peaches hitting the garden stands and farmers’ markets. Canned peaches works really well too. I always pack away at least…
My goodness this month went fast! We’ve been so busy dividing our time amongst getting the boat ready for her spring splash, preparing for guests and tending to getting our new-to-us gardens cleaned up that it’s left little time for anything else. I did take the time though to put together a list of your favourite Galley Kat recipes for the month of May. Simply click on the caption of each image for the recipe link. First way at…
Here you go my Galley Peeps, the fifth and final rhubarb recipe…although we can’t seem to get enough of this final one. So rich and dense…not too sweet….the perfect snacking cake. I have a little confession though. Ours wasn’t totally rhubarb. I’ve recently discovered that a vile weed, almost alien-like, that has overtaken part of our garden, is actually edible. Apparently Japanese Knotweed with its nasty invasive root system is almost impossible to eradicate so I’ve decide to embrace my…
Oh how far I’ve come from my early stove top cooking days! My treasured Omnia stove top oven has been with us from the beginning of our boat obsession…now heading into our sixth season. I must admit some of my first attempts were a bit rough but hey, it’s boat life…camping on the water. We don’t need fancy. My previous effort at providing sweet treats without an oven onboard – cookie dough stuffed into baking cups. Recipe here It’s…
I love all my galley gear, especially my little Omnia stove top oven. Even though our boat is out of the water for this season, I still use it in our land galley. And because of our recent packin-up-and-movin-out, it’s been the one appliance I haven’t packed. Our land oven was scrubbedd clean for the future owner so it became a no cook zone before moving out of our condo (catch up with that story here) With apples in season,…
I’m chanelling my Irish roots today. Some tasty Irish Whiskey Baby Back Ribs (recipe here) are crisping on the grill as I write this and some delicious Colcannon (recipe here) has been prepared ahead and kept warm while I whip up a little deliciousness for dessert But since life is uncertain, we had dessert first. Two whole slices. Shameful but oh so good. So richly chocolatey. So moist. I’ve had this recipe stashed in my database for a long time…
You read that right – Sweet Potato Frosting and it was spoon-lickin’ yummy. And just two ingredients. Where else can you marry rich dark chocolate and a vegetable and call it healthy. The muffins also were packed with veggies…and rich dark chocolate…and so moist! Super easy to throw together once all the ingredients were gathered. Dry ingredients all stirred or sifted to make sure there were no lumps, then the wet stuff was folded into the dry. Lastly I folded…
