Well folks....I have been away far too long. Vacation is over and time to get back to my writing. It's all about food.

It was announced recently that The Chew has been cancelled. This show has had an influence on my cooking for the past few years. A lot of the recipes provided by the cast are easy to follow and fun to make.

More so, the sad news last week of the loss of Anthony Bourdain. I was a fairly new follower of his show but have been enjoying it immensely. He got me interested in researching foods from different regions and trying some new recipes along the way.

So I'm back! I'm going to continue to research new recipes from the different regions and find ways to use healthy ingredients while keeping the integrity and flavour of the dish.

With shopping list in hand...I head out to restock....stay tuned!
