Another day, another food truck! I had so much fun acquiring lunch from the Fillbelly’s comfort food truck on Tuesday that on Wednesday I decided to venture farther to try out another truck I’ve had my eye on: Clover Food Lab.

For every picnic, every class trip, every water park day, and every opportunity for packed lunch, I asked my mom for sushi. Little did I know then that the “sushi” my mom made for me is not what most would call sushi. When we think of sushi and maki rolls, we usually think of the Japanese kind or the Americanized-Japanese kind

There’s a revolution going on in the hotel industry. And it involves good food. It used to be that eating at a hotel restaurant was something you tried to never ever do.

And honestly, there’s not much worse than paying too much for a meal you can’t stand to finish

My Mom left this morning (she went back to Mexico) which means that I am literally back to work and hitting the ground running. The first thing I wanted to do was check back on my client work, on my research and teaching, and the various things I have to deal with as July draws to an end. A couple of days ago, my good friend and co-organizer of Mental Health Camp Vancouver 2010 posted her second recap of MHCYVR10 (you can read tweets associated with the hashtag #mhcyvr10 here )

Many people know that Yellowstone National Park was the first such park in the world, and almost everyone knows about the majestic beauty of the park. It seems that fewer people are aware of just how big the park is and how far away from major cities and airports it is.

China’s Three Gorges Dam is holding up against its first major flood-control test. The flow on the Yangtze River’s upper reaches topped 70,000 cubic metres a second Tuesday – 20,000 more than the flow during the 1998 floods that killed 4,150 people and the highest level since the dam was completed last year

I’ve mentioned before how carried away I get at the farmers market, especially when it comes to gorgeous fruit. So on my counter (that only needs to feed two people, mind you) spring’s strawberry surplus ( make jam! ) has given way to a summer bounty of peaches, plums and apricots. I picked up a pint each of Toigo Orchards mini plums and apricots at the Penn Quarter FreshFarm Market last week and turned them into this simple tart.
