Trans Rights Readathon – Middle Grade Reads

As I mentioned before, I’m participating in the Trans Rights Readathon. While I love reading grown up books and the whole thing, what re-sparked my love of reading a few years ago was the vast potential of children’s books to delight, to educate, and to expand horizons. We’ve been lucky...

Burger Time: Hamilton – Bring Me Some

I realized looking back that I’ve never talked about the amazingness that is Hamilton’s Bring Me Some. Well, it’s time to change that. Bring Me Some started out in the Hamilton’s Farmer’s Market and then they opened their own location at 638 Concession Street, in Hamilton’s Eastmount neighbourhood last year...

I will be fundraising for Skipping Stone and Trans Wellness. Skipping Stone is an organization in Alberta that connects trans and gender diverse...

Port-Hope – Bualai Taste of Thai

One of the things we’ve been doing over the last few months since moving to Northumberland is finding some of the vegan friendly spots in the area. Recently we grabbed dinner from Bualai Taste of Thai in Port Hope, and enjoyed it quite a bit. It’s sort of funny how...

February Reads

February wasn’t a month for voracious reading, but some more cerebral pieces of literature made it through in addition to the usual sci-fi, cozy mystery, and somewhat off the beaten pack romance novels. I’ve been working in a bit of non-fiction into my repertoire, but not too much this month,...

January Reads.

This year reading has come easy, after letting go of reading challenges last year, and just letting myself go with the flow, and with my whims, I didn’t reach the end of the year racing to meet some arbitrary goal, and I feel better for it. I started the year...

Burger Time: Toronto – Soy Boys

I’ve been sampling a variety of vegan burgers the past little while, and most of them have been pretty decent. They’re often met with ambivalence (from me and others) after decades of lack lustre veggie burgers or non-vegan places phoning it in with a wilted mushroom cap or something. But...

The Hugo Awards – 2022

This was my first time attending Chicon, and the Hugo Awards, virtually of course, but what a treat it was. I’ve read so many of the nominees this year, perhaps next year I will vote, but voting seems impossible since I love so many of the books – in my...

Real Sugar is Hard to Find by Sim Kern

I read Sim Kern’s Real Sugar is Hard To Find a few weeks ago, and it has stuck with me. The short story collection grapples with some heavy topics – climate change, reproductive freedom and reproductive justice (both to have, and to have not), what we owe one another, parenthood,...

Big Mountain Foods – Soyfree Tofu

I’m always excited to see more plant based protein options – especially for folks allergies – so when I had the opportunity to try Big Mountain Foods soy-free tofu recently, I was very excited. Their tofu is made from Canadian fava beans, and has a really efficient amount of protein...
