How living on your own changes the food you eat
One of the most exciting parts of moving away from living at home was the idea that I could eat what I want, when I want. And to some extent this is true. I figure out what my budget is after each of my bills is paid and I curate my meals based on that.

Food of Past
What ever happen to the good old days where a family of four would go out one day a week to an actual restaurant as a special time instead of always eating out. Families will always say cooking is so time consuming so going out is easy. This is true but also false due to the fact that if families plan out meals stand budget the can save so much money especially during this crisis and unrest. Money is another reason that families go out is that fast food places are "cheaper" but that is another excuse for not being lazy . This is not a story about reasons why people go out to fast food place or being lazy to cook but a story how I went from being a plain jane of food to becoming a real foodie who will try anything that I come across be it be small mom & pop joints to a restaurant chain hole in a wall .

A Hotdog
So most people have eaten a hotdog at some point. America’s favorite junk food to eat at all kinds of sporting events, backyard gatherings, Festivals, and eating competitions. I certainly had my fair share of hotdogs growing up. Well recently over the past year I’ve heard about this debate I had no idea existed and had never thought about before. It revolves around the hotdog and whether it is in question a sandwich or not. Well in this piece I’m going to weigh in on my opinion of the topic. So first let's explore what makes a sandwich.

Dear Donald
Dear Donald, When I realized that you would become our president in 2016, I instantly became depressed and determined all at the same time. I was depressed because I know what you stand for and I have known for a long time, but I was confused as to why millions of my fellow Americans did not. Maybe they did know and just shared your views, or they had seen you on tv or a movie and felt like it was time for a change. Either way, you held the most important position on the planet for obvious reasons was simply wrong as the previous 4 years have clearly shown. You are a racist, a bigot, a narcissist, a liar all wrapped in a burrito of criminality. If all that was not enough from day one you have been a national embarrassment. Not just to yourself, but to our country. You were supposed to be our chief representative on the world stage and for 4 years the US has been a laughingstock. With every incompetent word you spewed, another wave of anger and depression swept over me and I am sure over several million of my fellow citizens. It was exhausting to say the very least. I would have rather the office sit empty than have you occupy it for one second. Your businesses were failures and the people who voted had to been hoping for you to come into the White House and bring it down from the inside. You almost did, but the voters spoke out and thankfully, on the 20th, you will be replaced with an actual leader. I think the best part of watching your circus of an administration was when every so often we were treated to pure comedy, when your wife Melania would snatch her hands from you in disgust, the same disgust that more than half the country was feeling every single day. I would laugh so hard at that, but it was a small reprieve. The next day you would be at it again with your stupidity and thuggish behavior. If only members of the senate would have been brave enough to stand up to you, but it's ok, the people did it for them, as we usually must do due to all the corruption that plagues our government. It is fine. We survived the test. That brings me to how determined you made me.

Mouthwatering, Crispy, & Sticky Tofu !
Tofu sometimes gets a bad rep, hey? Half the time it seems it's because people just don't know what the heck to do with it! Do I fry it? Do I bake it? Do I season it?! It's hard to know sometimes. Especially if tofu is a new food to you! But I am here to save the day, and I have a feeling that after you try this quick tofu recipe out, you will feel like you have mastered the art of preparing tofu once and for all. This tofu is so so crispy on the outside, but still nice and fluffy in the middle (thanks to the good ol' defrosting trick!), and when coated in the sauce it becomes a mouthful of sticky, spicy, sweet deliciousness. And is super simple and quick! Even my meat-eating parents and boyfriend who aren't vegan, absolutely love this dish. So.. let's begin!!

The Family Pizza Tour
There are two things every family enjoys. No matter who you are or where you come from, we all love a road trip and we all love pizza. This summer we decided to drive from our home in Saskatchewan to visit our families in South-Eastern Ontario. A 38 hour road trip, in a Yaris, with a nearly 3 year old who is full-on three-nager and a busy 6 year old boy.
