summer food diaries 🥗 🍓🍝 | celebrating mom's birthday, sunshine coast, cabin life, life after grief

Hi friends 🫶🏻 Welcome back to another cozy summer vlog. This week, we left behind the noise of the city and took a short ferry ride to the Sunshine Coast to celebrate my mom’s birthday. It was our first time visiting Sechelt, and from the moment we arrived, it felt like we had stepped into the pages of a summer novel. Think cozy cabin mornings, farmers market treasures, golden hour walks, paddle boarding on glassy water, and slow dinners cooked with love. Throughout the trip, we explored local cafés, chatted with the kindest locals, and found little moments of stillness. This might’ve been one of the most peaceful trips we’ve ever taken. It reminded me that sometimes the most magical places are closer than we think, and that joy can still exist even when things feel a little heavy. So here’s to cozy getaways, food that feels like home, and celebrating love, even when it looks a little different than it used to. Thank you so much for being here and coming along with me. See you in the next vlog 💛 FEATURED RESTAURANTS 😋 Farmers Market Mushrooms https://walkercreekfarm.com/ Smitty's Oyster House https://maps.app.goo.gl/H9osq4xhUSb46JaZ8 Beachcomber Coffee Company https://maps.app.goo.gl/CDifHHCW73TjaWGW8 Banditry Cider https://maps.app.goo.gl/4Yg1fDjZsbjxv5nz7 Sechelt Farmers' & Artisans' Market https://maps.app.goo.gl/YH5bTFiFAVHYZnPAA e.b.'s Ice Cream Shop https://maps.app.goo.gl/1tT6J3An9e8Crja76 Basted Baker https://maps.app.goo.gl/tCgRVtuoHPV7jmD6A The Bricker Cider Company https://maps.app.goo.gl/umTKT16L8FC3gzen6 The Gumboot Cafė https://maps.app.goo.gl/caWBqZse5sS9HRZU9 Shave Ice Paradise https://maps.app.goo.gl/xD5AXb7g713S69BE6 🍜 SHOP MY FOOD BRAND: https://kaidongfoods.com/ ✨ BUY MY NOODLES: https://kaidongfoods.com/products/noo... 📚JOIN MY BOOKCLUB https://discord.gg/rJFTeJwWBK 📷 FILMING GEAR: https://rb.gy/tzj4q2 📖 ORDER MY COOKBOOK: https://geni.us/tiffycooks 💌 WEEKLY NEWSLETTER: https://tiffycooks.ck.page/1538bd70ed 🛍️ AMAZON FAVORITES: https://www.amazon.com/shop/tiffycooks Links 🔗 Food Blog https://tiffycooks.com/ Instagram https://www.instagram.com/tiffy.cooks/ TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@tiffycooks Business Inquiries: [email protected] Music from Epidemic Sound!
