What’s with the shite foods at sporting events?

Sooo I was at the Jays game last Sunday (where we killed Boston…at least one of Toronto’s sports teams is clear that it’s not just about having fun…that bringing home a win every now and then is kinda nice too) and as we were approaching the Sky Dome (yah, I said it) the aroma of hot dogs filled my nose. It was intoxicating! I was salivating at the thought of one of those smoky, juicy dogs. Mmmmmmmm…

Mexican(ish) Black Bean Salad

I made this salad last week for the DivaGirl Conference and it was a hit. It’s a great salad for the upcoming summer weather as it’s light and fresh but still filling. I promised all the ladies who attended that I would post the recipe so they could recreate the deliciousness in their own kitchens. 

So without further ado, here it is:

WTF is a “natural flavour” anyway?

Three letters for ya: M-S-G! 

*gasp*

Say it ain’t so?!

Big shocker, I know! That ingredient “natural flavour” isn’t quite so natural! It’s actually a super secret code name for the not so healthy flavour enhancer MonoSodium Glutamate. It alters our perception of how things taste, making it hard to stop at just one potato chip, chocolate, candy, and so on.

Why should we care that it’s in our food?

Moo babies can live happily ever after with their moo moms! 

Organic Meadow: you da bomb!

OMG! My new fave “fast food” joint. You’ve gotta try it!

Healthy fast food is pretty limited. Sad but true. Subway, despite what Jared whatshisname says, is not a healthy choice. Not the worst choice but we can do better than that.

Cue IQ Foods. Stumbled upon it one day in the TD Food Hall (downtown) and I never looked back. The guy who started this was a finance dude who wanted to go into the food biz making honest, good-for-you food. Gold star finance dude! You did good!

Happy Love-Your-Self Day

Ugh, Valentine’s day. The day of loovveeee. A day of chocolate, flowers, greeting cards, heart-shaped balloons, wine, dinner and, if all goes as planned, some loovvvinnn’. Nothing wrong with any of those things but I think the day is a bit silly. People who are in relationships should show the person they love that they care every day of the year. And people who aren’t in relationships hate seeing the lovey dovey propaganda shoved in their faces. I have the best Valentine this year but for many years before this one I didn’t. And, to be quite honest, it kinda sucked. I have no problem being a single lady but Valentine’s day seems set on making those going solo feel like crap about their status.

Banana moppins, nour-ish styles.

My grandparents have a cottage up near Kingston and every summer since I was an itty bitty baby we’ve gone up there. It’s a magical place filled with spiders, bocce ball, water skiing, mini putt and my Nan’s banana muffins. Now Nan’s no Chef Ramsay (I’m a bad granddaughter for saying that), and she is the sole reason I get nauseous thinking of pork chops (she’s of the mindset that if you can still chew it then it’s not cooked enough), but boy can she bake a mean banana muffin! She’ll bake a couple dozen muffins at the beginning of every stay and because they’re in such hot demand we’re only allowed two muffins each morning for breakfast (or a third as a snack when she’s not looking - hope she doesn’t read this as my plan is very much in the open now). They’re good cold, they’re good hot, they’re good anytime and anywhere! The perfect treat!

Make today ridiculously amazing!

Go to Fresh for a delicious juice.
Give your main squeeze a big, wet kiss.
Eat your greens (and lots of ‘em). Dress them up in olive oil, lemon juice & sea salt.
Go skating outside and then race home to a big pot of DAVIDsTEA.
Watch a movie and make your own popcorn on the stove with coconut oil & sea salt. 

Whatever you do, make it a little more amazing! Bonus: you’ll feel that much more amazing!

Food. Don’t waste it.

I stumbled across this poster the other day. It was used by the Americans during World War 1 to encourage people to ration their food (and their money) carefully. I think it’s still relevant now what with there being a kajillion of mouths to feed, a growing obesity epidemic and a world that’s fuelled on crappity junk foods. To be honest, it makes more sense than a lot of the propaganda we’re fed now, almost a century later.
