Happy New Year!
So for the past two years I’ve blogged about my food-related goals here and here. I find it to be a fun exercise and a nice way to try and keep myself accountable throughout the year. It’s always fun for me when I revisit my goals […]
Every once in a while I like to look at what my most popular posts are. I’m often surprised. To wrap up 2010 I figured I’d share with you the top 10 most popular recipes posts of the past year. These aren’t recipes that were posted this year but the most popular posts of the […]
It was only a matter of time before I went ahead and made my own bacon. I mean I’ve been extolling the virtues of bacon for years and had long-declared that “everything tastes better with bacon” long before the phrase was a part of our vernacular. My primary bacon used to be […]
After my recent ricotta-making success I decided to try my hand at making some other cheeses. I was planning on making mozzarella but I have to order cheese-making supplies and that is kind of expensive so I decided to make paneer. I love ordering Saag Paneer when I go out […]
The holiday season is upon us and I’ll just keep it 100 – I like gifts. I mean at what other point in the year is it socially acceptable to just list all the stuff you’ve had your eye on all year on the interwebs? Exactly. I did a gift guide last […]
I’ve been having a craving for Mexican food as of late. It was likely spurred by my recent trip to Chicago where I dined at Rick Bayless’ Xoco twice. Toronto isn’t known for its Mexican food so when I have a craving I usually crack open my cookbooks.

At the beginning of the year I posted about my food goals for the year. I mostly forgot about revisiting my goals so with the year coming to a close (pains me to write that) I figured I’d see how I’ve fared so far…
Eat more fruits and vegetables – Some success here! I’ve […]
After my trip to Tawse Winery, I ended up with some farm fresh eggs. I generally don’t eat a lot of eggs (they, like chickens, freak me out) but I’m a sucker for farm fresh eggs when I’ve met the chickens that laid them. With my newly acquired dozen eggs I […]
A few months ago of Buster Rhino’s Southern BBQ started tweeting about making vanilla extract. I was intrigued. I’m often disappointed by the vanilla you buy at the supermarket. First of all there is that crappy artificial vanilla extract stuff that is pure chemicals. Then there are the “pure” […]
If you’ve been following my blog you know that this year I fell in love with Stratford. It started with a fabulous tour earlier this year hosted by the tourism department that allowed me see a lot of what Stratford has to offer from their farms to top […]
