Gotta chowhound in your house?

Restaurants want to give them a pawsitively fantastic time on their patios.

From barkuterie boards to pina dogladas to bone broth beers, more patios are pup-friendly.

Yes, this week's column went to the dogs.

As Cole Porter once wrote, it's too darn hot.

To give you a break from summer's swelter, this week's CBCKW food column is about refreshing and tasty cold soups found here in Waterloo Region

Soft, fluffy, sometimes glooshy. Sweet, but not too sweet. Flavour combinations that can mix sweet, savoury and salty. My latest food column is about a recent crop of Asian bakeries here in Waterloo Region.

My latest Substack is up! It's about my new adventure as CBC-KW's new food columnist! It's exciting (and a bit scary, but the team there is so lovely). I also share a recipe for Devil's Food cake (incl what I did to veganise it).

Hello, new people (and welcome to those who've found me from elsewhere).

A bit of an #Introduction if we don't know one another:

I'm a food writer, living in Kitchener, Ontario, Canada (Waterloo Region). I'm also a strategic communications consultant and I teach culinary communications.

My posts are fairly wide ranging, incl food, history, arts, culture, humanities, politics, people doing good. And cats.

I think that's it for now. If you decide to follow, welcome, my lovelies :)
