What a weekend! We had a wonderful stay in Prince Edward County (more posts to come) – we went with old friends, visited some newer ones and shared food with many. Fresh strawberries are in full tilt, asparagus is still haunting local stands (it’s as thick as your thumb) and the vineyards are starting to [...]

The day before was full of glorious sun (we were 100 kilometers away from the country that day) and the festival [...]

This is about as easy as it gets – set aside a few hours and you`ll be off to the races. This applesauce will be as good as it gets – it took me 5 or 6 hours to turn 75 pounds of apples into 9 liters of sauce (36-1 cup bottles) but you could [...]
