Red.

Messy. Mistakes.
It’s tempting to look back and think of how we could have done things differently.

We fall. Break.

Better to feel something than to languish..
Insipidly. Fearfully. Uninspired.

Fail. Regret.
Repeat until you triumph.

Feel it. Even if it burns.

Because failures give value to triumphs. And this symbiotic balance gives this whole mess meaning.

Perilla Kal-guksu (knife noodles) with a crushed chili sesame seed oil sauce topped with toasted walnuts, Parmesan ribbons and tomatoes.
I’ll eventually share recipe.

I have a million things to do.

Wash my windows. file my taxes. sew that button back on my jacket. Clean squalid fridge. Cut little Georgy’s hair. Work. Contemplate the meaning of life.

Instead I choose to idle in this glorious sun and enjoy this truffle potato chip crusted inside out grilled @ViolifeCa Mature Cheddar Cheese sandwich.

“Wash Me” ..maybe tomorrow.

Ingredients: (Loosely)
2 slices of your fave bread
8 slices Violife 100% Dairy-Free Mature Cheddar Cheese Slices
Fistful of truffle potato chips
2 tbsp vegan butter

Instructions:
Over medium high heat, melt butter and sprinkle crushed potato chips.
Place 2 rows of (2 slices each row) Violife Mature Cheddar Cheese Slices over chips.
Lay a slice of bread over each row of cheese and press down.
Add another layer of Violife Mature Cheddar Cheese Slices (2 per slice) and cover with lid.
Allow cheese to melt for about 2 minutes.
Layer some chips over each slice of bread.
Flip one slice of bread over the other and serve.

Crispy smashed potatoes with avocado, tomatoes on sourdough topped with @sharpssauce hot sauce. Very tasty. You can find the sauce in @1924us shop online. I’ll put a link in stories. Great sauce for pretty much everything.
Made this video for @1924us @sharpssauce a while back. Just getting around to posting content made for clients now.

Peat smoke, eucalyptus, and berries. A visual experience of @Bowmore’s 12 and 15, including Bowmore Aston Martin Masters’ Selection 22 Year Old. Paying homage to the craftsmanship and legacy of Bowmore’s single malts, the Art of Time is central to every stage of the distilling process.

Bowmore has unveiled the second installment in its Masters’ Selection Series: Bowmore Aston Martin Masters’ Selection 22 Year Old. A spirit that embodies the harmony between two distinctive
brands.

On a quest for the perfect snack,

Georgy ate..and ate..and ate.
But nothing quite hit the spot.

Until he discovered @delfrescopure ’s divinely delicious peppers..
Mouthwatering mini cucumbers..

And scrumptiously superb strawberries. AKA YES!Berries.

#AD Beauty, innovation and craft. The pursuit of excellence takes time.

@Bowmore , the oldest licensed distillery on Islay has been refining its craft for more than 240 years. The craftsmanship at every stage of the process truly shines with sophistication in each bottle. Just as the distiller’s hand-selected the Bowmore casks, each flower was chosen to speak to the tasting notes of the expressions.

A leader in the world of single malts, Bowmore has become one of the world’s most collectible Islay malts.
After nosing my way through the 12 Year Old, 15 Year Old and the Bowmore Aston Martin Masters’ Selection 22 Year Old, it’s obvious the team of talented distillers at Bowmore achieve excellence in creating premium single malts. Textured, with a complex balance of smoke, rich fruit and notes of sea salt, Bowmore pursues perfection by understanding and accepting the impact time has on everything they do.

My 2022 gingerbread house masterpiece. 16 kg of dough sprinkled with sugar by my other masterpiece, Georgy.

For the past three Christmas’ i’ve built massive gingerbread houses and wrote thoughtful captions.

I’m tired.

What I learned this year is sometimes giving up is not a sign of weakness rather a strength to know when to let go.

Thanks for the hug and help Georgy.

Happy holidays.

About a year ago I had the pleasure of mentoring a group of talented high school students snap food photographs for a cookbook during the pandemic lockdowns.

Thrilled to announce the e-book is officially up for sale with all proceeds going to The Daily Bread Food Bank @dailybreadto
Some recipes featured in Flash in the Pandemic Cookbook include Alo, Gusto 501, Pure Spirits, Cluny, Richmond Station, Good Behaviour, La Palette, Kimchi Korea House, Piano Piano plus dozens more.

There’s also a LAUNCH PARTY.
Tuesday OCTOBER 11th. Sample unlimited canapés and food from stations such as @mikutoronto @mapleleaftavern @gladstonehotel_orange @broadviewhotel and Michelin star restaurant @hanayorkville and more.
Plus live music, Jim Creeggan @barenakedladiesmusic (Eventbrite tix in stories link)

Delicata Squash, Kimchi and vegan Mozzarella Spring Rolls made with @ViolifeCa vegan Mozzarella Shreds, glass noodles and mushrooms.

A great starter or side dish for your Thanksgiving table or autumn meal. They’re crispy, cheesy, packed with umami and uber scrumptious. And can we talk about the taste and texture of @vioilfeca vegan Mozzarella Shreds? The texture is exactly the same as the dairy version, and in MHO Violife has more flavour than reg mozzarella. It’s also gluten, soy, nut and preservative free.

Serve with a side of Cranberry dipping sauce (recipe below) or plum sauce.

➔ Yields 12 spring rolls

Delicata, Kimchi and vegan Mozzarella Spring Rolls:
1 1/2 cup Violife vegan Mozzarella Shreds
1 cup grated delicata squash or any type of squash
1 cup drained and chopped vegan kimchi
1 cup cooked and chopped glass noodles
1 cup shimeji mushrooms (or any type of mushroom)
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp salt
1 tbsp nutritional yeast
12 spring roll wrappers
2 tsp cornstarch (for sealing wrappers)
2 tbsp water (for sealing wrappers)
Vegetable oil for frying
Dipping sauce
1 cup cranberry s1 tbsp fresh squeezed lime juice
2 tbsp chopped cilantro

Lemon yogurt cake recipe and preparation by the ever so elegant Cristina @the_publishers_daughter

This video was an improvisation after @thebittersweetspoon asked to see my workflow from beginning to end during the retreat “Finding your Voice” last week hosted by the generous gin folks @valleyofmotherofgod

After watching some footage by those who recorded me I realized my work-flow is intense, manic, deeply focused and a bit bossy (sorry Cristina lol). Oh…and loud (blasted baroque music)

Find @the_publishers_daughter delicious lemon cake recipe on her blog. I’ll put a link in stories.

More retreat content on its way. Just trying to catch my breath.
