Recipe Swap: Apple Cinnamon Rolls, Sour Cream Rolls, and English Bath Buns

By Lorraine Stevenson October 16, 2014

On cold late-fall days, I remember coming home from school to a kitchen warm and fragrant with fresh-baked buns. Usually the scent of floor cleaner lingered with it; Mom always washed the floor after baking. Like many housekeepers of the mid-1960s, she’d ceased making bread, partly because of the chore it was, but more likely

As I wrote this, Morden’s Corn and Apple Festival was just about to begin. We go every year. It’s one of my favourite summer festivals, equal parts midway, farmers’ market, street sale, annual homecoming and for many, a chance for a rare taste of corn on the cob. If you’ve been to the Corn and

Recipe Swap: Afternoon tea a trip down memory lane

By Lorraine Stevenson April 18, 2013

Afternoon tea might evoke visions of finger sandwiches and clotted cream or pinkies held out affectedly. For me it brings back memories of being at my grandmother’s house after school.
