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...

Arboreality by Rebecca Campbell

I read Arboreality by Rebecca Campbell in a hammock under the canopy of old cedar and pine trees –  it felt like the perfect place to be. In the trees, relating to trees. The authour describes herself as someone who “writes weird fiction” and that was a major selling point...

Weekend Maple Tree Visit at Purple Woods

Our small human recently celebrated a birthday and we booked a cottage near Presquille Provincial Park, and had a lovely little time. While we were in the area, we also took the opportunity to check out the Purple Woods Maple Festival. We heard about it while taking part in an...

Bloomer’s Copycat Cobb Salad

I don’t know about you, but in 2014-2015 I basically lived at bloomers every Tuesday morning. I’d make sure to buy coffee and food on the regular, but I would park myself in a booth, and sit there with my laptop for several hours. It was not usually super busy...

Coburg, Ontario – The Market and Smør

We’ve been spending more time in Northumberland County lately, in preparation for moving to the woods (to some degree or another) and one of our visits included a stop into a very lovely independent grocery store. I will come back to take more pictures when it’s a little less busy,...

Peterborough, Ontario – Nateure’s Plate

The past few months we’ve been spending a lot of time looking around rural Ontario – and luckily, some of those trips have taken us through Peterborough. In doing so, got us to Nateure’s Plate for the first time. Nateure’s Plate has been open since 2018, but somehow it took...

Barrie, Ontario – Mexhico

Continuing our trip home from North Bay, and past the 2.5 Provincial Parks we’d end up visiting, we passed through Huntsville and charged our car for a few minutes and popped into the food coop in Huntsville I had wanted to visit for a while, which was unfortunately an abysmal...

Parks and Food Trucks

Continuing on from our North Bay trip, we got up Sunday morning, packed into the car, and got on the road. First stop, South Bay Provincial Park (traditional territories of Michif Piyii, and Anishinabewaki). Or so we thought. Normally I do a more thorough check of our destinations, but didn’t...

North Bay Roadtrip – North Star Diner

Last weekend we decided to visit North Bay – specifically to eat the East Coast Brunch brunch at the North Star Diner, and because I have a fondness for North-Central Ontario. Currently , I’m eager to take any excuse to travel a bit further than our usual 2hr radius away...
