Well in to Summer now! At long last it seems that summer heat has landed on Toronto’s doorstep and I am now focusing my energy on evening out the awfully awkward tan that accompanies getting around by bicycle in the summer months. As it heats up outside, it cools down in my kitchen. With my post on Rotten Grapes and New Jeans getting picked up by Toronto Life’s Daily Dish, my mom is now convinced that Pusateri’s will come after her and that she will be excommunicated from North Toronto. I say, Let Them Eat Cake !
Monday: Rotten Grapes and New Jeans
Do you return produce? A basic enough question that spurred lots of response.
Tuesday: It’s Not Just About Food
It is so easy to get caught up in our health; worrying about eating the right foods, exercising enough, doing enough. Here is my reminder that it takes more than good food to nourish our health as I get out my glue gun and paints and remind you that it’s a-okay to cry over spilled milk and that it all simply is what it is.
Wednesday: Fridge Bits Pasta (Recipes)
Gross! What is it now, day 18 of the garbage strike? I can’t stop my bicycle on corners anymore as overflowing garbage bins have taken over and they just stink. So as not to contribute to the stenchy mess, I devised this delicious pasta that had no waste.
Thursday: Nourish Your Soul (Video)
Did someone say Caribbean retreat in St. Lucia where for one full week you will do all things sweet and healthful like invigorating yoga, explore organic farms, botanical gardens, hike in waterfalls, eat the best local organic food, and learn about all things nutrition? Yes. I did! Join me, January 10th -17th, 2010.
Friday: Let Them Eat Cake (Recipe)
So much summer fruit, so little appetite left for a fruit crumble. Instead, I came up with this sweet little cake number. Gluten and dairy free of course and Candianly sweetened with maple syrup. If ever there was a time to have dessert after breakfast, this would be it.
