I arrived at Frith Farm on a crisp and sunny October morning, the land all sparkling and misty following a much-needed day of rain. I immediately noticed the long beautifully aligned beds, covered in lush green vegetation, some of them vegetables, some of them a vibrant mix of rye grasses…

Addicted 2 Sushi — Fri, 15 Mar 2024 18:15:08 +0000

When I bite into a strawberry cream puff, I am instantly transported to summers at my grandmother’s house in Nova Scotia. Everything about Beatrice Collins (aka “Grammie,” “Mum,” “Queen Bea”) was elegant yet practical and simple. Nothing was fancy or fussy, but everything she touched felt magical. She was a…

The first time I saw a photo of one of John Forti’s epic heirloom salads, I knew we had to make an episode about them. John’s salads are works of art and they have blown up and expanded my previously limited notions of what a garden salad can be. It’s…

The bright star of this summer was having my nephews stay with me for two delicious weeks. It was their first time visiting me on their own, without mom or dad, and I went into full Auntie Aubie mode. We spent our time swimming at the lake, exploring for interesting…
