Tea and more tea!
Having a love of tea makes it difficult for me to control myself arond anything tea related. I guess it’s not a bad addiction to have, tea is, after all, very healthy! And it’s the best thing to have around when company shows up. Like the great quote from Gladstone goes: ”If you are cold, tea [...]
The World in Your Kitchen 2010 – Ethiopia
I wanted to share the recipes from my lovely 2010 calendar. All of the recipes are vegetarian and most of the ingredients are very easy to find. If the recipe calls for something unusual it also gives you a simple substitution. I love it! Here’s the recipe for January… Ethiopia.

The World in Your Kitchen Calendar
I think my favourite part about ringing in a new year is choosing my new calendar. No, I don’t think, I know! Yes, there’s always the sense of “possibility” that comes with the start of new year, but for me the best way to see those possibilites is with a new calendar. I used [...]
A New Year, A New Decade

I thought I would take a short hiatus in following my international recipe dictionary and instead of going on to Nepal, next on my list of recipes to try, I want to add an entry about cookies. After all, this is the one season of the whole year when the most amount of cookies are [...]

First, a little information about Korea: Korea is a formerly unified nation that’s divided into two states. [...]
Jamaica Mon!
Finally! A breather! I was hoping to continue blogging while the move was going on but that was a pipe dream apparently. Moving and getting internet connection as well as taking a cross-country drive to Vancouver and coming back a week later to unpack really takes a lot out of a girl! Whew! I’m so [...]
