I did not write on the Saturday – it is a day when the majority of our group arrives and we have a lot of work, fun and a party to celebrate the annual reunion. I was working with my Father early in the morning when we realized we needed supplies and I decided to [...]

Grassfed Bison Raised in Ontario
It`s a rather unusual approach to a post today – Essentially we are turning a users comments into a post. Al (one of his food blogs is Torontovore) produced a small video on the essentials of raising grassfed Bison in Ontario (they are not finished with grain) along with Arlene and Aaron at the Mountain [...]
The Farmer’s Song (Murray McLauchlan)
Canadian singer Murray McLauchlan wrote this as a tribute for our farmers – I found this video on youtube which I found powerful – and appropriate since today we’re going for a massive walk and ending up at a local market.
Happy Saturday!

Something FRESH is in the air…
I have been meaning to post this trailer for some time. Fresh appears to be a movie that attempts to answer some of the questions raised by many in the food movement and looks like an exciting positive spin on where we are at and where we need to be, in relation to food.

You say “tom-ay-to”, I say “tom-ah-to”, in Spain they say “DUCK!”
I’m looking forward to spending spending part of the Labour Day weekend labouring over tomato sauce….two days (at least), up to our elbows in Tomatoes…but one day, we’ll have to go to the Tomatina festival in Buñol Spain to truly revel from head to toe in Tomato love…..

Finally…Canadian Content for food awareness
The Hellmann’s mayonnaise campaign of eating locally has raised a lot of eyebrows. We have been researching it for the last few months and have a tough time determining our end verdict on the campaign. More on that as it evolves.

Field Trip!
Well, it’s not really a field. It’s the SCIENCE BARGE! A sustainable farm and science museum, floating on the Hudson River in New York. It’s powered by solar energy and wind energy as well as biofuels. The farm is hydroponic and uses rainwater and purified river water. According to their website, the vegetables grown on [...]
No-Knead Bread (Courtesy of the Minimalist and friends from Twitter)
I have recently been thinking about learning to bake bread. I am finding the thought a little intimidating. I have no experience, no mixer, no yeast and no idea where to start. This is also the type of challenge that I find very exciting.
I turned to Twitter for help and asked people where I should [...]

But where are you from?
Blueberries had started to ripen and it was the start of blueberry season in Nova Scotia when we saw these last week:
We thought, at first, that they were product of Canada, then product of USA, then realized they also had the BC Grown label. It is getting tougher and tougher to understand where our food [...]

The Pause that refreshes… I heart Iced Tea made at home
This is a bit of a cheat – I’ve already mentioned my recently developed fondness for todays drink in our post on strawberry preserves and, secondly, I’m sure that it’s not riveting to most of you.
I am not proud to admit that I have a rather strong fondness for cola (specifically, Coke). I know the [...]

The Meatrix…then and now
Sustainable Table produced the following video in 2003:
There are two more videos available on The Meatrix – Canada is mentioned in the second video (I mention this as Well Preserved is Canadian based though we have many loyal followers in the US and UK). Dana sent it to me yesterday with the title “your next [...]

'Blank'
http://www.22squared.com The relationship between brands and consumers has irreversibly changed. What is needed now is a new marketing paradigm that calls for clients to actually STOP 'marketing'...
Time’s up!
Feelin’ the love for our new kitchen timer! Bought it at Anthropologie (Shops at Don Mills). It looks vintage, but it’s brand new…all metal and sticks to the fridge with a big magnet*
Nice and simple. We had a weird one that plays 70s game show tunes and looks like a blender….but never used it (too [...]

Molasses v. Marmite (ongoing)
Joel posted about his love for Molasses on bread today. Yes the battle of goopy black spread in our household is an ongoing thing, we’re both mildly grossed out and baffled by the other’s choice. I can respect why he loves it, memories of childhood and family and comfort because mine are the same…it all [...]
