Dishing in the Kitchen has teamed up with the Golden Ears FEAST, Haney Farmers Market, and Big Feast Bistro and Catering in Maple Ridge B.C. to bring Jamie Oliver’s Food Revolution Day to our local town. If you love real food and want to help celebrate, check out the Food Revolution Day site here. Local? [...]
Lately, I seem to be hooked on a theme related to home remedies. It is probably a natural extension of my interest in healthy foods, and not necessarily a bad thing to be hooked on. Years ago, I battled a substance abuse problem and I would very often follow a ‘party’ night with a junk [...]
Making Peace with Spring Colds. It’s definitely spring in our part of the world, and along with daffodils, primulas and signals that the mythical Bunny made its annual appearance, the big giveaway is the number of lingering head colds plaguing friends and neighbours. It’s that cold. Starts out as a small sniffle or tickle in [...]
Do you ever have the feeling that somehow things are magically working out in your favour? I set a goal in 2012 to come up with a handful of killer desserts that would qualify as ‘clean’ by my definition. Meaning gluten and dairy -free, without cane sugar, and mouthwateringly delicious.

In the 14 days leading up to Valentine’s Day, I challenged my Facebook fans and followers to find 14 people (not in their direct families – ‘cos that would kinda be too easy) and tell these 14 people that they loved them and to go further and get specific and tell them what it is [...]

A jillion thanks to Steffani for posting it where we can all get our greedy bolognese-loving hands on it! It’s a perfect comfort food, especially in the [...]
Is it possible to be in love with a pie? This one was so good, and so gorgeous to look it, I couldn’t stop taking pictures of it. Never mind eating it. That made us swoon. This year for Christmas dinner, hubby and I shared a lovely 14-lb turkey. Yes, just us. Why? Because we’re [...]
Okay, so the world didn’t end as predicted by the Apocalyptics, and the Transcendents seem to be still with us (at least the ones that I know personally). However….the year is drawing to a close, and what if it were really possible to start over? And why not? Here’s what I think makes a great [...]
Happened to have the family over for a pre-Christmas gathering recently. Turned out it was Grey Cup Sunday, which is a big football-y deal here in Canada. At least I think it’s a big deal in Canada. For all I know, it might just be a big deal in Western Canada. Is there something called [...]
