In a week, Mack and I will be in San Francisco! I’ve been counting down the days for quite some time – with the move and a busy summer season in Edmonton, I’m more ready than ever to get away. On to this week’s food notes:

The City Market is “exploring extending operations to include an [...]

The leaves are changing! It’s not even September and the leaves are changing! As much as I love fall, summer always seems to end too soon – I’m going to try to enjoy whatever warm days are left, and I hope you will as well (on a related note – this is a pretty cool [...]

The Dish is hosting Brews ‘n Views on Thursday, August 19: “Alberta Views magazine presents a public discussion on local food and urban farming with a panel and Show n’ Tell featuring some of Edmonton’s most interesting and innovative inner-city farmers>” Panellists include Patty Milligan (aka Lola Canola) and Ron Berezan.
Groupon finally hit Edmonton last [...]

Beer & Boar took a lot out of me, but I won’t have a lot of time to recover, with the Fringe right around the corner! We missed out on Frequent Fringer passes last year, so I made sure to order them on the day they were released – good thing too, as they were [...]

I really needed this long weekend – as we are now into August, it feels like the summer is flying by at a maddening pace, and I can’t keep up! And with the Fringe right around the corner, I know it’ll be September before we know it. On to this week’s food notes:

It’s your last [...]

I’m grateful summer days are full of daylight – I honestly don’t know where the time goes sometimes (okay, some of it was spent watching The Bachelorette tonight). With a busy week ahead (it is festival season after all), there’s nothing better than a quiet evening capped off with tea and cookies. On to this [...]

I still can’t believe The Hills pulled that kind of ending on us. Six seasons and four years later, they choose the series finale to tease the audience with the suggestion that everything was staged? Sure, I’ve acknowledged that it was a “scripted reality” from the start, but why not just continue the charade? Sigh. [...]

Sometimes it feels like I’m going to be back-blogging for ages. I know one day I’ll catch up, but until then, thanks for being patient with me! On to this week’s food notes:

Some of the Fork Fest menus have been released – hopefully the rest will follow fairly soon! The pre-fixe food festival runs July [...]

Though we still have numerous boxes scattered throughout the condo, I feel more settled now than I did on the weekend. We even cooked our first meal last night in the kitchen! And I have to say, nothing’s better than being able to walk to the office in less than fifteen minutes – beats waiting [...]

I really thought I could do it all – the sorting, the packing, the moving, the cleaning – all while keeping up with my blogging. But nope, I was defeated by the moving process. We were up until the wee hours of the morning readying the apartment for our move-out inspection – I don’t think [...]
