Remembering Dad: Please Pass the Potatoes

Mar 31, 2018 | Food story

I’m not sure how young I was when I realized my Dad’s love for potatoes. It wasn’t just a mediocre love, no, more like a to-die-for passion for this tuber. You couldn’t eat enough of them. Potatoes were a necessity for life. And life with the potato we had. Our...

  • While we have a large number of high quality chocolatiers 🍫 in Canada, when on vacation in the states -- when in Phoenix -- my go to is See's Candies, a place that my twin sister @lanamargaret introduced me to a number of years ago. Usually I'm visiting my sister and her family who live here by myself but this time my hubby Martin is with me for a family wedding. (My sister's youngest son is getting married on Saturday.) With the full knowledge that Valentine's Day is tomorrow, Martin knew I'd love some chocolate. Well then, it was not hard for me to suggest where to go get some! 💗 Here we have a 1 lb box of nuts and chews that I personally selected while he waited in the huge lineup. I chose both milk and dark chocolate so... Okay, I'll share :) 💗 Are you buying yourself any chocolate tomorrow? Do you get chocolate? Is chocolate a must on these sweet holidays or do you indulge on any day? 🍫 These chocolates have no preservatives in them so they must be consumed within 60 days... or did they mean hours, or, er, minutes?? LOL 🍫 Happy Valentine's Day my sweet Instagram friends. Don't wait for chocolate. Buy your own! 💗🍫💗 #chocolates #chocolatier #chocoholic #chocolate #chocolateday #valentinesday #bemine #loveyou #seescandies #sweethubby #valentinechocolate #valentines #candy What's #urfoodstory? 🌱
  • Do you support your local farmers, growers producers, suppliers? What do you buy this time of year from any of the above? Here we have a plate filled with a lot of local food or ingredients! It's the deep of winter and yet we can get locally supplied food: chorizo sausages, Canadian wild rice, and from our local food box @farmboundbox, green beans, green onions, and kale. I added pomegranate arils for a color pop on the cooked kale with @evoolution104 blood orange evoo. Scrumptious, and nutritious meal that helps our economy and all of us!
