Globe and Mail Green Party

Well, The DeLish Bite has one of its first media recognitions! I was interviewed this week for an article about Green Parties in the Globe and Mail Life Section!!

The Yellow Fish Road.

Last week I had the opportunity of joining more than 250 students from Secord Elementary School, located in Ward 31 (Beaches- East York), for the annual Trout Unlimited Canada's Yellow Fish Road™ program.

Thanksgiving special!

Thanksgiving is almost upon us, and this year, Simon and I are hosting it in our new home!

TOMS Shoes

It goes beyond face, beyond body, even beyond clothes: this is about shoes. Yes, those lovely things beneath our feet on which we spend near all of our time often go unnoticed and underappreciated... but not these shoes. Not Toms Shoes.

A rainbow on your plate.

Sweet or savory, vegan or meaty, raw or not, local farmers markets offer something for everyone to enjoy.

Vote off this CUFF!

Normally I would say do NOT vote off the cuff - vote with purpose and meaning - but this is one cuff off which you can most certainly vote (and hopefully inspire others to do the same). If perfection were to include voting, encouraging others to vote, looking stylish, and saving the world, then I have found the definition... and it comes in the form of a fashion-forward recycled record album cuff.

Make a mindful choice this Thanksgiving.

Growing up in South Africa we did not celebrate Thanksgiving, when I moved here twenty years ago, I saw it as just another holiday. I got a day off school and I got to enjoy pumpkin pie for the first time....mmmm...yummy.

A Green Debut.

Attention all greenies, A Greener Toronto makes its debut this week, if you're interested in knowing what's happening in our city then tune in Thursday nights at 9:30pm on Rogers Cable 10.

Green & Blacks

There are few foods that have the ability to elicit a true passion like chocolate. Now, I am not a huge dessert fan, but I have to say that I do have a weakness for really good chocolate. I have recently discovered an exciting company called Green & Black's, which obviously shares my passion.

The Little Black Dress (or LBD as they are known to some) is classic and timeless img_0279.jpg

The ABC's on greening your nursery.

Moms and dads listen up, it's time for the ABC's on greening your nursery.

Ultimate Chili Con Carne

It is hard to ignore it. The mornings are getting colder and the evenings frostier. Winter, it seems, is definitely drawing near. If you are looking for the perfect way to share a toasty evening with friends or family, my ultimate Chili Con Carne is the perfect choice.
