There comes a time in everyone’s life where you realize a new passion. For me, it was in my early twenties, working an office job, obsessing about what to eat every day for lunch. I realized I liked thinking about food so much that I wanted to learn more about it. I wanted to cook…
What To Do About NOT EATING DONUTS
I know exactly what I am missing. Back in the day, when I was a wee lad, some friends and I used to make regular trips to a certain donut establishment, which shall remain nameless. Let’s just say I owned a t-shirt from them, and I owned stock in their company… really. I was enamored…
What To Do About BUYING PEACHES
I like a good peach. Remember that song by The Presidents of The United States of America? The song that goes, “Moving to the country. Going to eat a lot of peaches”. I always disliked that song. I always made fun of that song… “They’re not talking about peaches, you know”. Occasionally, Terry will get…
What To Do About GETTING YOUR KIDS TO EAT VEGETABLES
How quickly we forget what it was like to be sitting at a table staring at broccoli or brussels sprouts, crying and telling our parents that we didn’t want them, or that we did not like them.

A) Be a very content person, and
B) Keep it simple.
What To Do About HAVING A WELL STOCKED FRIDGE
This is a sentimental subject for me… I hope I do not tear up as I write this. When I see a well stocked fridge it brings me back to the days when I was a wee lad visiting my grandparents. I remember opening my grandma’s fridge and seeing all sorts of wonderful food inside and her welcoming me to whatever my heart desired.
