  • KFC Double Down Comes to Canada

    One of my guilty pleasures is having Breakfast TV on while I am getting ready to head to the office.

  • Celebrating Sunday Night Dinner

    One of my favourite memories from my childhood (other than the fact that our entire family moved, to live for a number of years, to our summer cabin…how cool is that!) was our weekly Sunday night dinners.
