We are blessed to live close (enough) to a wonderful farm. Harmony Farm in Harmony RI (where else would you want to go?!) Last fall we discovered them when we went, en masse, apple picking. Tonight we returned and filled our buckets and bags with blueberries and peaches. I want to go back this weekend and try their blackberries and raspberri ...

For the second year now, I decided to take to the streets with my flowered bicycle and baskets full of apples. Last year I hit up the intersection of Bay and King, in the heart of Toronto’s financial district. This year, we went for a slightly different demographic, venturing a little further North to Yonge and College. Though there a ...

Hello there, friends! You may have noticed this is a super late post today. However, the reason has nothing to do with staying late at work (for once). In fact, since I went in to work over the weekend for a few hours, I got to take a “half day” today. Woohoo! I was technically allowed to leave work at 12:30 (which would have been amazing) but ...

Peach tomatoes are exactly as they sound. They have a shape like a tomato, but are fuzzy and lightly colo ...

There are certain food combinations that strike one as just so naturally compatible, you couldn’t imagine them any other way. Consider the seminal chocolate and peanut butter, for instance: could there be a happier marriage of sweet, salty, creamy, smooth, and enticing? Or what about vodka and orange juice, or pancakes and maple syrup, o ...
