Boy, this is one hot summer we’re having here in Vancouver. The heat wave is giving us temperatures around 95 to 100. Way to hot for me. Really, we’re not use to temperatures like this. It makes it very hard to bake in the kitchen these days. So, I decided to make something quick and [...]

When the kids were smaller my wife and I would take them bike riding on a small island in the Fraser river called Barnston Island. It always seemed like an adventure to the kids. We would have to catch a small ferry that held about 6 cars at a time to take us across to [...]

I don’t know about you but, Lemon Meringue Pie has always brought back some of the fondest food memories growing up. I think one of the greatest things about being “human” is that we have memories.
