While I love Chicago (to a degree) and have committed to working here for the next few years, there are some things that really irk me about the place. For example, the lack of diversity in the food scene. Sure Chicago is known as a restaurant town but I challenge you to find […]
Well folks, American Thanksgiving is upon us. Or, as I like to call it: the last Thursday in November. Being Canadian, American Thanksgiving is just another day albeit with the promise of crazy sales and all good TV shows being preempted in favour of football.
I know, I totally sound like the Grinch […]
One of my favourite things about travelling is discovering new dishes to bring back with me. It doesn’t necessarily have to be a food native to the city/country, for example, when I came back from London I almost immediately made this fish with romesco sauce. But oftentimes it is something local… like […]
I couldn’t help it… another Ottolenghi recipe. And another vegetarian recipe! Maybe I’m losing my meaty edge?
The other day I was having two of my best girls over for a little dinner, a lot of wine (4 bottles, 3 girls) and all manner of storytelling before a night out on the town […]

The past few weeks have been busy with visitors, weekend excursions and general lollygagging which means I’ve been super lazy about buying groceries. […]
So this poor little blog has been a bit abandoned as of late. Why? Because B-School is crazy. And by crazy I mean super busy, super fun and A LOT of work. I’ve learned so much over the past three months both in the class room and outside of the classroom. I came […]
I have blogged a WHOLE lot about shrimp and grits. I can’t help myself, I just love me some shrimp and grits! In my quest for the most delicious shrimp and grits I often come across the name Anson Mills. Anson Mills is a South Carolina based company that produces artisan milled […]
If sweet potato gnocchi was a song, a few years back it would’ve been my JAM! I actually blogged about this dish back in 2009 and the recipe dates back to 2005… so it’s been in my brain for a while now.
I realized a few weeks back that I hadn’t made […]
