Today I met kohlrabi....actually he's been hanging out in my fridge for about two weeks and I haven't had the heart to cut up his sputnik physique until tonight at dinner. Was it worth it...HECK YES! Please, if you haven't tried this funny little delightful veggie give it a try. They come in purple and green so if you are looking for something to give your repetitive potato dishes some colour dice one of these up and throw it in to anything.....seriously :)

  1. Wow! I am impressed... and hungry! This sounds so healthy and delicious. I bought groceries in London for the first time since moving back and got a few things local. Where do you do most of your shopping?

    Keep up the good work!

  3. Hey Lana! I haven't found too much stuff in London when I've visited but Waterloo is loaded and worth the travels if you have a free weekend. The Farmers Market is a great source as well as a few independent health food stores around the city. Hope things are going well!

    Candace, Thanks for checking out my blog. I found the flax seeds at Full Circle on Charles street in Kitchener and the cranberries at the Kitchener Market. Make sure to ask which ones are covered in local apple juice (the others are covered in sugar)
