Book Club Tuesday: 100 Cookies
I don’t think it was until I boxed up that first batch of treats to give to my neighbours that I baked from Sarah Kieffer’s latest book, 100 Cookies, that I realized what has been bothering me. Being a pandemic year notwithstanding, I missed being able to connect to people through food. When my Continue reading “Book Club Tuesday: 100 Cookies”
Book Club Tuesday: Falastin
I’ll be honest — I’m a homebody. I love the comfort of staying put but I also enjoy seeing different places, a contradiction, perhaps, but not if I can enjoy these places via a good cookbook. The undeniable theme of 2020 is Continue reading “Book Club Tuesday: Falastin”
The Eatworthy Books of 2019
What began with all the best of intentions has me looking at the calendar wondering where the time went and what the heck happened with my gift guide? (Not only this, I can hardly believe we’re rolling into a new decade and my blog is going into it’s fifth year). So, I can tell you what happened with the gift guide — too much choice! Continue reading “The Eatworthy Books of 2019”
Book Club Tuesday: The Munchy Munchy Cookbook

Book Club Tuesday: From the Oven to the Table
I haven’t always been interested in cooking or cookbooks. When I was a kid and young adult I was completely obsessed with movies. Didn’t give my folks much bother because Continue reading “Book Club Tuesday: From the Oven to the Table”
Book Club Friday Fun Edition: Kitchen Party
I am an avid MasterChef Canada viewer — there I said it — but it’s true. Back in early 2014 when I was pregnant, I really got into reality cooking competition shows. I found it completely fascinating how Canadians from all different Continue reading “Book Club Friday Fun Edition: Kitchen Party”
Book Club Tuesday: The Forest Feast Mediterranean
While I love to travel, I think my introverted nature much prefers to hear all about other people’s travel stories or to get lost in a good cookbook full of faraway places and food to match. True story — when I was little my mom asked me if Continue reading “Book Club Tuesday: The Forest Feast Mediterranean”
Book Club Friday Fun Edition: Little Green Kitchen
Ever since I began reviewing cookbooks mail day has become a wild card — you can never be sure what surprise might be waiting for you down at the community post box or arriving at the front door. One afternoon while my daughter was playing with her toys, she spotted the Continue reading “Book Club Friday Fun Edition: Little Green Kitchen”
Book Club Friday Fun Edition: Let Me Feed You
My hope is that you’ll find recipes in this book as delicious and satisfying as they are straightforward and achievable. (3)
Cooking is a language that I speak fluently. Like Rosie Daykin, I use that language to say things to those around me. I want people to taste the effort, taste the love. And, part of being able to cook for someone isn’t about showing off the latest culinary technique or hard-to-find ingredient it’s all about making food that’s Continue reading “Book Club Friday Fun Edition: Let Me Feed You”
