Last year, through the takeout window, a lovely couple handed over a *huge* container of wild raspberries they'd just picked.

I was also proudly shown the battle scratches it took to pick these berries at the top secret locale.

This year I was invited along to the secret spot (!!!) and harvested these beauties myself. With help. Because I dropped my container. That was half full. And I was GUTTED.

I know y'all hear me harp on about community this and community that, but I just really need y'all to understand that we would NOT be here without you. At all. Full stop.

So thank you. Again and again, foever and ever.

P.S. there are literally only 14 of these so if you want them - COME.

When we took this sign down at our shop on Ahrens

When we took this sign down at our shop on Ahrens last September we thought it would be the last time we operated a takeout window.

Well! Wouldn't you know that as always Life has something a wee bit different in store for us than we had for ourselves!

Although the signage and product offerings will be a little bit different we are once again SO excited to be opening our takeout window @theshedbylenjo this Thursday, July 1st in the beautiful St. Jacobs Village!

We'll have ice cream by our friends at @fourallicecream and some sweet treats too!

Check out our Insta page, give us a follow, and come and say hi 👋 this Thursday from noon until 4pm!

The Frasier verrine: lush crème pâtissière, Cha

The Frasier verrine: lush crème pâtissière, Chantilly cream, vanilla cake, and perfectly in-season strawberries around, in, and on top of this wee delight.

Kind of like strawberry shortcake...but better. (Fully admiting bias.)

Available for pre-order online or just stop in! Here for a good time, not for a long time.

Huge shout out to @herrles_market for providing us with incredible 🍓 for the second year in a row.

Father's Day is around the corner (literally 8 days away, y'all) and if you're looking for a completely customizable gift box full of sweet treats for your father figure - we've got you covered!

Hand pies, cookies, brownies, LenJo Louis...the list of possibilities is *almost* as wonderful as your old man himself.

Head to our website (link in bio) to pre-order!

These boxes will be available on the shop until Thursday, June 17th at noon!

We're so excited to be carrying @fourallicecream in our shop just in time for summer!

Right now we have these perfectly-sized minis, but are considering bringing in jars as well.

Order ahead online or pop into the shop - either way: get some!

Let us know in the comments which of their incredible products and flavours you'd like to see in the shop!

If you asked us what a "Shopkins" was a year ago,

If you asked us what a "Shopkins" was a year ago, we wouldn't know what to tell you!

Truthfully, we have no idea what to tell you now except:
💫 they know nothing about physical distancing
💫 they really know how to bring a party to a rainbow sprinkle cake
💫 they made a little girl (and her mama) really happy

J brought us these toys from home to add to her little one's cake. We think it turned out so well!

Find out more about ordering your own bespoke cake through the link in our bio.

Rhubarb custard crumble galette. A freeform hand

Rhubarb custard crumble galette.

A freeform hand pie with flaky pie crust, vanilla crème pâtissière, stewed rhubarb, roasted rhubarb, and an oat crumble.

Here for a good time, not for a long time.

On Sunday arvo, I donned some overalls and harvest

On Sunday arvo, I donned some overalls and harvested rhubarb myself for the very first time!

The menu for the next couple of weeks will be rhubarb heavy and we wouldn't want it any other way because seasonality is...well, seasonal!

We're going to make hay while the sun shines.

The store is being updated and will be ready to go Wednesday morning.

Can't wait to see you this weekend (and next) for some delightfully tart rhubarb treats!

My mother is not my best friend. In fact, growing

My mother is not my best friend.

In fact, growing up she would often remind me that she is "not one of [my] little friends."

She is, however, a wonderful example of selflessness and love. Giving until there is nothing left...and then pulls a "Mom move" by finding a bit more to give.

The greatest gift my mother ever gave me was teaching me how to be hospitable: taking anyone you meet and treating them as you'd treat your friend.

When I've achieved anything, my mom will always say she is not as smart as I am. Little does she know that I attribute nearly all of my success to the way I make people feel when they're around me - something I learned from her.

This photo was from this past Easter when my mom came in to show me how to make Jamaican Easter bun. It is my favourite photo of her and one I will treasure for the rest of my life.

Love you, Mama 💕
