A brand new year is upon us! With it comes hope, seemingly infinite possibilities and fresh beginnings! Since I started a Facebook group for Cat Can Cook, I have been rather lax about regular posts here on the main site, favouring instead, the simplicity of quick Facebook updates and interactive forums. I didn’t really realize [...]
President’s Choice has done it again, and again, and again….and this time they have come up with something completely new to get consumers excited by involving the consumer directly in the process of creating amazing new products. The impressive new adventure from PC is a reality show entitled “Recipe to Riches” in which home cooks compete [...]
Lovage (Levisticum officinale) is a tall perennial plant, with a flavour reminiscent of celery and anise blended together. It has a strong and distinctive flavour quite unlike other herbs. Lovage is an ancient plant, which was very popular during the Middle Ages. It has been said to possess qualities of a medicinal nature. Specifically, lovage [...]
Last night, I was invited to attend the Canadian Cheese Grand Prix at the Palais Royal in Toronto. For those unfamiliar with this event, basically, it’s a Canadian competition of cheese makers, to determine the best in Canada. The venue was spectacular, I met a lot of new people, visited with some foodie friends and [...]

It was an awesome event for the senses, in the historic St. Lawrence Market in beautiful Downtown Toronto where we enjoyed the culinary creations [...]
There is something about the eve of a brand new year that makes one very introspective. Tonight I am reflecting on what Cat Can Cook means to me and how food blogging and writing has changed my life for the better. From a small personal blog that I started 6 years ago, this site has [...]
As many of you know, I LOVE President’s Choice Products, plain and simple! I promise they do NOT pay me to say how much I adore their products. They’re just that good, and when you find something you love, usually you yammer on and on about it like I do! Hey, I’m allowed – it’s [...]
I love to help the local animal shelter where I can. We have given donations to them every year for as long as we’ve lived in Guelph, and one of our resident companion cats (Annie is pictured above) came from there also. The people that work with the animals in shelters across North America have [...]
