Take care with cantaloupe

By
Just get it started and it will practically roll out of its skin,” the man doing the knife demonstration assured his audience. I was thinking about those knife ads from years ago. The knives cut through tin cans and shoe leather, then through ripe tomatoes, making slices so thin “your relatives will never come back”[...]

Staying hydrated in the heat of summer

By
Like many people, I have been busy with yardwork lately. We have had a proliferation of miniature maple trees popping up all over our yard, thanks to hundreds (maybe thousands) of propeller-like seeds dropping from our tree. I wander around the yard every day, inspecting my pots and gardens for the telltale reddish stems and[...]

Keep it safe this summer with food

By
The other day, I wiped off and arranged the outdoor furniture on our patio after the furniture finally came out of storage. Then I sat down at the table to enjoy the warm breeze and admire the flowers I just planted. After a long, cold winter and spring, I was beginning to wonder whether warm[...]

Make the most of rhubarb season

By
Mom, how did they figure out we could eat rhubarb, anyway?” my older daughter asked me. I had cut some stalks of rhubarb and was disposing of the large green leaves. A wilted leaf caught her attention and soon she had it draped over her head like a large green scarf. Of course, she snapped[...]

I suppose this is going to be a column,” my son said as I pushed a grocery cart and he added items to it. We had paused in the produce aisle and he added bananas, oranges, strawberries, broccoli, cauliflower, lettuce, onions, potatoes, several types of peppers and other colourful produce items. He examined the items[...]

Staying safe with food

By
A recent scare around romaine lettuce here in the U.S. (Canadian readers can rest assured they were unaffected, though the CFIA says it’s monitoring the situation) has many wondering just how safe those leafy greens really are. “Can I eat the romaine lettuce in my refrigerator?” one recent caller asked me. “No, we need to[...]

Lunch in a jar

By
Every now and then I get a little envious of the creativity of my co-workers’ lunches. I have noted a couple of people making “salads in a jar” on occasion. All they need to do is gently shake the glass quart jar to mix the ingredients, grab a fork and enjoy their healthful creation. Maybe[...]

Cleaning up

By
The calendar insists it’s spring, despite the snow and ice that continue to keep the daffodils and tulips hidden below ground. The birds probably are wondering if they missed summer. Spring puts me in a cleaning mood, even when snow still is blanketing the ground. In the kitchen, spring cleaning usually means scrubbing surfaces and[...]

Are eggs healthful?

By
I remember going to my daughter’s preschool for “green eggs and ham” day. Yes, the food was dyed green in honour of the Dr. Seuss book that inspired the menu, and the kids were quite excited. Unfortunately, I associate green ham with mouldy ham, but I ate the emerald-coloured ham and eggs, and forced a[...]
