Do you need a vitamin pill?

By
You need to eat more vegetables,” my husband said to our 13-year-old daughter. He was scraping the uneaten vegetables from her plate while she was getting a daily kids’ vitamin for herself. I walked into the kitchen during their conversation. “I really don’t like vegetables,” she announced a little sheepishly. I can attest that she[...]

What’s in artificial sweetener packets?

By
What kind of sweetener would you like?” my husband asked me. “I’ll have a blue packet,” I said. He handed me the small packet. I ripped it open and added half of it to my coffee cup. He took a pink packet. We were eating in a restaurant. I’m not sure why we always add[...]

Cook quickly with canned foods

By
Back when I was in college, my roommates and I relied on canned food and other staples such as rice and pasta for quick, economical meals. We mixed in some fresh meat, fruits and vegetables, too, of course. Preparing canned food was faster, though. One of my roommates was famous for her “mono-meals,” or one-item[...]

By
When I was young, I often was greeted by the sound of our pressure cooker hissing and the weighted gauge clicking rhythmically as I entered our home after school on winter days.

What’s your favourite episode of ‘SpongeBob SquarePants’?” my daughter asked her siblings. Her brother and sister began describing the antics of SpongeBob, a yellow kitchen sponge who lives in a pineapple at the bottom of the sea. He works as a dedicated fry cook with an interesting bunch of characters at a restaurant. My kids[...]

Go wild for wild game

By
We might see men and women dressed in blaze-orange coats, vests, caps and overalls at this time of year. The bright clothing is for safety and not necessarily a fashion statement. Fall is hunting season after all. When I was a kid, I saw many people in orange clothing around my hometown in the fall.[...]

What kind of hand soap do you buy?

By
My eyes combed the store shelves in pursuit of the next item on my shopping list. I noted blue, orange, gold, green and clear liquid in plastic containers. I was beckoned by appealing descriptions on the front of the packages, including apple, cranberry, citrus and cucumber. I started picking up the bottles and reading more[...]

Try an unusual fruit this season

By
What is that thing?” my husband asked, as he pointed at something in the produce aisle. “I have no idea,” I said as I walked slowly toward the bin of fruits. I reached out timidly to examine the bright-pink globular thing with green spines protruding from the sides and top. I was ready to pull[...]

How to stay cool and hydrated in the heat

By
I figure my distant ancestors spent most of their time in cold climates with little exposure to the sun. They probably slogged through snowdrifts to reach their recreational icebergs, where they could dip their toes in freezing water. When the sun came out, they probably retreated to cold, dark caves. Therefore, I think I have[...]
