It’s over. The holiday season is gone. The decorations are put away, the bags of ripped paper are in the recycling, the stuffed bellies are recovering and the year has started anew. It’s time to make resolutions, amends, promises…blah, blah, blah…. I don’t usually fall into the camp of resolution makers. I try to fix

Because I’m slow, because I will do everything in my power to make my house clean, running functionally and be fully stocked with glorious food, because I’ve had back to back to back illnesses ranging from stomach flu to severe vertigo to the common cold and because I have two kids, a dog that poos

Happy New Year everybody! It’s that time of year again…time to start anew. Time to put away the last of last year’s clutter and start with a clean slate. Around here, the first day of the year is reserved solely for recovery. Both for the house and for ourselves. Although this year, with the crazy

Today is not my usual post. I often don’t speak of the community that is involved in food blogging, but there is quite a number of people involved in it. There are hundreds, nay, thousands of people who consider themselves food bloggers. Often they come together for conferences, or get togethers, picnics, meetings, coffee, just because. There

Although most of the technical season called “summer” did not arrive here in the Pacific Northwest this year, the cooler weather did not deter our favourite fruits and vegetables from growing just as well.
