It should probably come as no surprise that this recipe is a bit of a retro. My mother and I have been making variations of this creamy chicken recipe for about 30 years, and its origins probably go back even farther. Canned goods became a staple of cooking in the 1950s, and they influenced foods…
#ExploreGTA Twitter Chat – Wednesday June 3, 2015 8pm ET
Hey, my friends! You may remember that I helped out with the Ontario Greenbelt series last fall. Well I just wanted to get the word out that Conservation Parks has a Twitter chat coming up next week about the fabulous regions to explore in the Greater Toronto Area. There’ll be discussions on beautiful places to go…
Win Tickets to See #MonsterJam in Hamilton April 25-26! #HamOnt #CanWin (ends 4/16)
Everyone’s wound up for Easter to be here. Kidlet’s been bouncing off the walls, which is not especially helpful when I’ve been trying to clean and prep for the big day tomorrow (we have everyone over for Easter). So I admit, I may have (in a fit of exhaustion and over being equally sick of hearing…

Caloric Cuvee Giveaway – Cause Plain Wine Glasses Are Boring (ends 11/15)
I have been a really busy slacker lately. I’ve owed my friend Renee a posting and a giveaway for her awesome glassware. Custom personal glassware is really in right now, and I have cousins on my husbands side who have people beating down their doors for hand-painted stemware. It’s kind of like your personal use…
Watershed chats at #ONGreenbelt – Wed October 8, 2014 8pm ET
Good morning my friends! Fresh back from the conference, and feeling inspired but just a little bit deflated cause I already miss all those crazy wonderful people I met there already. This Wednesday, I’ll be participating in my most favorite-est subject matter about the Greenbelt… the watershed! I’m sure you probably could tell from all…
Where’s the Food?? (Tune in Tomorrow!)
I went AWOL Friday and over the weekend to attend to a special assignment for this week. Unfortunately, it doesn’t go live until Tuesday (sorry kids, rules are rules!), so that means that your regularly scheduled Monday recipe will be bumped a day. Wait, wait! Believe me, it’ll be worth your while to check in!…
$50 GC Giveaway for Penny Lane Organics
You might have seen the review I did just after Christmas for some of Penny Lane’s organic, vegan/vegetarian facial care products. Well, I like these gals a lot. Following the vlog, I stayed in correspondence with them. I know I don’t talk about my son on this blog much beyond mentioning his food allergies now and…

Hey guys and gals, I’m super excited about this! Jenn at YouPinspireMe and I, being big #lovelocalbiz fans, reached out to our great Hamilton community to help bring a little Santa something special to the adults this year. We’ve got some great prizes in store including two pairs of tickets to see Cirque du Soleil’s newest…
BLUNTmoms #Giveaway
I sometimes write over at BLUNTmoms when I’m feeling the need to express myself about things that aren’t food. They’re a great bunch of ladies who talk about life as it is–raw or funny and frequently in language not suitable for Disney–and they have compiled some sweet holiday cash that will be bestowed on one lucky…
