The following is a list of all entries from the food category.

Sandwich Time

During the renovations, we didn’t eat well at all. We frequented A&W (it’s one of the only fast food places here), which is a very sad thing. No one should frequent A&W. Mostly we would grab a bacon and n’ egger (on a wheat bun, with tomato) in the morning. One morning, shortly after we […]


Tiramisu!

The onesies that we made for Paul and Gen went over quite well at the shower, especially the tiramisu one. So I made up a few more and listed them on etsy (See link in sidebar).
In honor of this new listing, I want to present the tiramisu recipe that inspired the onesie.
This recipe is from […]


Cravings

I’m torn.
Do I risk invalidating my authenticity by telling you squabblers that I haven’t been posting because I’m doing a cleanse? Yup, I’m on day 4 of a ten-day cleanse/fast. But in my defense, it isn’t a fad - it’s been around for 60 years. And it’s not a diet. I was just sick of […]

Blue Dot Test

Have you ever wondered why some people like bland, unseasoned food? Ryan and I err on the side of overspicing. We love rich espresso, dark chocolate, kalamata olives, aged white cheddar, garlic, chili peppers, curry, and dry red wine. This, we just discovered, is because we are non-tasters.
The book Harmony on the Palate, which is […]


(A Little Less Faux) Sushi

There is this amazing raw food restaurant in Nelson called Raw Freshing. The owner makes hemp and walnut crust pizzas, truffles and macaroons - all raw, of course. She apparently teaches courses, too, which I think would be fun. When we were on our honeymoon, I picked up the Raw “un-cookbook” by Charlie Trotter and […]


Goat Cheese Covers a Multitude of Sins

We had a delicious greek salad with our dinner. Cucumber, tomatoes, bell peppers with goat cheese, fresh lemon and a drizzle of olive oil. And, lastly, a sprinkle of thyme and a heavy dousing of… curry?! Sure, those stainless steel spice jars look nice but, functionally, it’s nice to have labels. So I decided […]
