I write a lot about foods that keep our bodies healthy, but let’s not forget how important it is to keep our mouths healthy too. I try to set a good example for my kids by brushing and rinsing twice a day, and flossing every day as well. I admit, I’m not perfect at it. Sometimes I get lazy…
Chocolate Peanut Butter Coconut Freezer Bars
I like having a stash of chocolate treats that I keep all to myself, in case of emergency chocolate cravings. These little chocolate peanut butter coconut treats are stashed in my freezer, and I’m pretty sure nobody knows they’re in there but me. I’d like to keep it that way, because they’re way too good to share. …
Creamy Perogie Dinner
I have a weakness for perogies. To me, they are the ultimate comfort food. I try to go easy on the carbs most of the time, but when it comes to perogies, I just can’t help myself. And they make such a quick and easy dinner, so that’s a big bonus right there. If it…

Pork Picadillo Wraps
Several months ago, I had the opportunity to attend a cooking class at Well Seasoned in Langley BC on how to cook perfect pork, featuring Johnston’s Local Quality BC Pork. Along with other local bloggers and foodies in media, I sipped Narrative wine while watching Angie Quaale from Well Seasoned prepare delicious pork dishes for us all to sample….
Smoky Corn Chowder
We’ve been pretty lucky here in BC to have beautiful spring-like weather lately. We took our boat out on the water this weekend, and I felt a little bad posting photos of our outing while the rest of Canada is immersed in snow. Took our boat out on the water this afternoon. What a…

Easy Skillet Chicken Parmesan
While I share a lot of slow-cooker recipes on this blog, I also like to feature easy meals that you can put together quickly at the end of the day, because I know not everyone has the time or forethought to put something in the crockpot in the morning. A lot of the time, I just…
