I’m no fan of green beer, so to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, I usually turn to an old Irish favourite. A global brand with a 260-year history that is apparently now brewed in 50 countries – Guinness stout. It’s black, rich and creamy, and pours with a velvety head so thick you can write your […]

In previous blogs, I’ve tackled the weighty topic of pizza history, and won’t repeat it here. Suffice to say this tasty, topped flatbread has come far since the classic Margherita was first served in the late nineteenth century. There are few restrictions on what can be placed on a pizza – the only one being

The 2022 Beijing Olympics have just begun, and for the next 16 days, there will be non-stop winter sports from bobsleigh to curling to alpine skiing. But wait, there’s still more. Roughly halfway through – on February 13 – we have Superbowl 56. So for diehard fans, this means you’ll be watching a little more

If you read last week’s blog, the theme (no surprise!) was on getting a healthy start to 2022. Whole foods are a key part of a healthy diet, and nuts – as long as you have no allergy or sensitivity to them – are a whole food that offers numerous benefits. Ditto for nut butters.

While the cold weather appears to be here to stay for a while (even though we’re all hoping it’s over sooner rather than later), nothing warms the hearts and stomachs of our loved ones like a family favourite meal. Comfort foods give us a pleasant dose of nostalgia along with important nutrition. Is it any

The summer heat has been steady over the past several weeks, but I’m not complaining. Ditto for when I was a kid during the “dog days” of summer when the sweltering weather was often at its peak. Back then, helping us through the high temps were a variety of frozen treats, with some squeezed through

When it comes to summer beverages, I’m a fan of the offbeat. I enjoy craft beer, but am also partial to other beverages – namely ciders and radlers – that offer a typically sweeter, but sometimes more refreshing alternative. This brief, but eclectic sampling of summer sippers may be an ideal way to celebrate our
