On this recent post I wrote for Foodists I shared a recipe for grilled polenta. There was a comment was that grilled polenta seemed like a wonderful way to include vegetarians at a barbecue, and, reading it I thought, well yes, and no. Grilled polenta, while fun to make and eat and absolutely delicious, isn’t [...]

Hello July! Summer is certainly upon us, regardless of what the wildly fluctuating Stockholm weather may be doing. We’ve had some smoking hot days followed by some cool and rainy days. On the nice days we’ve been packing up some drinks and heading about four blocks north of our apartment to a spot we refer [...]

Birthday cupcakes? Dang straight! The Muffin Myth was launched one year ago today! If I may, I’ll take a moment to thank once again the people responsible for helping me get this project off the ground, those who continue to support me in this endeavor, those who read, and those who actually make the recipes I [...]

If you’ve been hanging around here for a while, you’ve probably heard me rave about how much I love Vij’s Indian restaurant in Vancouver. One of my favourite dining experiences of all time was a few years back when my sister, Emily, and her soon-to-be husband, Andy, were visiting Vancouver and decided to take the entire [...]

In the summers, because my dad was a high school teacher and had summers off, we would pack up and leave the city for two whole months, living in a cottage behind my grandparent’s house on the Sunshine Coast. Each and every Sunday morning my grandparents would host a pancake breakfast that was always attended [...]

Here I am, again, about to make excuses for why it’s been a little while since I posted. Are you ready? I wrapped up an avalanche of work on Monday last week. Tuesday I graduated, Wednesday I boarded an airplane, and Thursday evening I arrived in Stockholm, where my fella met me at the train [...]

May has always been a month that has brought change to my life. Twelve years ago this May, a 20 year old me dropped out of a creative writing program at the University of Victoria, crammed some essentials into a suitcase, and left Canada alone for the first time, flying to New Zealand to work [...]

I know, I’ve been bad lately. Actually, scratch that. I’ve been very very good lately, hence the total lack of posts. Classes are now done with, papers handed in, projects wrapped up. My first four exams came in quick sequence; a one-two-three-four punch. I was feeling moderately sorry for myself until a girl in one [...]

Hello there! It’s me, Katie, coming up for air. I keep telling myself that the worst is over, and I do think that’s true. The surge of contract work that saw me trying to squeeze studying in around 12 hour days of teaching is mostly done with, and I have to give a huge shout [...]

My friend Lindsay taught me how to run. I mean, I was always physically capable, I think, but I had viewed running mostly as something that was necessary only when being chased. Or something conceived by my high school gym teachers, who would torture us by seeing how many times we could run around the [...]
