Well, it took me awhile, but I’m back! I could make excuses but I guess it just boils down to the fact that I got distracted. The past three months have been action-packed as I finished up my MBA program There was a lot of travel (Hong Kong, Vietnam, Thailand, Nicaragua, and camping […]
Okay, I know I’ve waxed poetic about my love of the Ottolenghi cookbooks. Basically, I’m pretty obsessed with both and right now. It’s basically been a hit parade whenever I cook something from these two books. The hype is definitely worth it.
Those who know me know that I […]
Yes, there’s a heart on that there plate. Albeit a somewhat crooked heart, but it’s there. That’s my attempt at signalling Valentine’s Day! Yes, a seasonal post. I never do that ish. At all. But there’s something about these little molten chocolate cakes that inspired me to be a little gushy […]
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 […]

You all know that I love me some preserving. Let me turn some fruits into jam or pickle some vegetables and I’m a happy camper. I’m particularly happy when I get to crack open a jar of preserved peaches in February.
A few (ok, many) months ago the folks at Thomas Allen […]
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 […]
While I’m pretty good about eating most foods (despite my dislike for raisins and cucumbers), I can be oddly picky about certain things. Anyone who has ever had brunch with me knows about my “egg thing”. It’s not that I don’t like eggs, it’s just that on any day I can be […]
Second year of business school is a pretty glorious time for me. Not only do I (sort of) have this whole school thing down, my classes this quarter are interesting but don’t have a ton of work, I have a good sense of who my friends are PLUS I’m lucky enough to have […]
