Hello My Name Is… Swiss Chard
A lovely recipe that combines Moroccan flavours with the earthy taste of Swiss Chard.
Hello My Name Is… Kale
Kale chips might be “so 2013”, but they are also “a very tasty snack”, so.
Hello My Name Is… Strawberry

Cheesecake Strawberries 1 pint local strawberries ½ cup spreadable cream cheese 1/3 cup icing sugar (to taste) 2 Tbsp orange liqueur or orange flower water or 2 drops orange extract Rinse berries.

Hello My Name Is… Apricot
A weekly instalment of what’s seasonal. Cherries are a seasonal treat, yet their price means that they remain a splurge. I can’t imagine doing anything other than enjoying the plump, juicy fruit unadulterated. Which would leave me with nothing to write about. Instead, I’ve decided to focus on apricots. Granted, apricots aren’t exactly local, but […]

This post is more of a reminder to eat radishes than a recipe, per se. Radishes are available and inexpensive year round. It’s easy to forget that they […]

Brew Brahs chat with Beau’s Brewery chef Bruce Wood

If you’re a beer drinker in Ottawa – heck, in Ontario – then you’ve sampled a Beau’s brew. They’ve been creating craft suds since before it was cool, way back in 2006. With dozens of breweries now […]
Centuryholm Farm – The milk we’re made of
Jacob and I left Ottawa on a cloudy Saturday morning, running late as usual but highly excited about our destination! After all, it’s not every day that you have the chance to visit a working dairy farm! The road to the farm was breathtakingly beautiful. Still close to Ottawa, we had the impression of being […]
