Popeye got it right. He knew that to be fit, smart and savvy, you had to eat your spinach every day. And he probably didn’t cook the you-know-what out of it. Sandra Phinney explores how to truly celebrate this versatile vegetable with some great recipes.
Juggling Work and Family While Mapping the World
Graham Nickerson suffers a wicked sword blow to the neck from a pint-sized warrior. With a mighty roar, the swordsman strikes again. This time, Graham manages to raise his arm against attacker. Alas, his arm is hacked off at the shoulder. Sitting right there at the kitchen table in front of a laptop full of […]
The Pig Whisperer
As I sat feeding Billy the kid his last bottle of the day, I was reminded of my old friend, Pig. See, Pig was a piglet that one of my friends found wandering out on Interstate 29, so of course she picked him up and took him home. She named him Bacon (she was also very resourceful).
Finding Life Balance Through Creating and Consuming
To find the coveted work-life balance, it may simply be a matter of giving out value as a Creator, and being open to receiving value back as a Consumer.
Retirement Plans
While other writers have been talking of clutter in these pages, I’m ever-so-slowly getting rid of everything. Giving it away mostly. I’ve been shrinking into smaller places for the last ten years, since my marriage broke up.

The results are a menu that includes Venison Wellington, Miso-glazed Bone Marrow, Pheasant and Licorice Pie, and Rendell’s favourite dish, Tandoori Foie Gras Torchon with Earl Grey.
The Tree Whisperer
I envisioned this tree while I was in the hospital in labour with my daughter. It was a Technicolor trip aided by a good ol’ snort of nitrous oxide (Woo Hoo!), which left me convinced that I had, without a doubt, graduated from Tree Hugger to Tree Whisperer.
Home
I live in the heart of a city, but when I look outside my window I breathe in the blue of the sky and the towering elm trees that create a canopy over my street. I live in the heart of a city, but I am exactly one block away from the river and a […]
Tea Time for the Body, Mind and Spirit
I love the little sayings printed on the tea bag tags — kind of like the beverage version of fortune cookies. While brewing your tea, you might be told “The beauty of life is to experience yourself,” “Your greatness is not what you have, it’s what you give,” “When you know that all is light, you are enlightened,” or “Meditation is the medicine of the mind.”
