Next stop: Steveston. A picturesque little town. Mr. Chi-Town and I were awed by it’s beauty. Before exploring the area, we decided to grab some chow. They say when in doubt, ask the locals, so we parked the rental car and walked into Mary’s British Home, a little English-goodies/grocery store. The sights and smells of …

It’s Day 4. What’s new? Cloudy, dribbly BC-style. But there’s just something about this cloudy-dribbly day. I hate to say it. It’s beautiful. So it’s brunch time. When it’s cold out, I crave for hot. Hankering for some wild Indian spices, we sped off to D.C. (Dosa Corner). Lamb curry X-TRA spicy was highly recommended …

Day 2 in BC. Really? (Pinch, pinch). Rise and “shine”, Beautiful City. 🙂 We woke up to A.M. drizzles. If waking up was hard to do, decision-making was even harder. With only four days to venture around Vancouver, Mr. Chi-Town and I caught ourselves silently going back-and forth with our to-do list. Priorities change once …

Yikes! As it Cooks is 1, folks! Here’s my question for you. How did you or how would you celebrate your blog’s first anniversary? There are a few options. Nothing fancy. Bear in mind, it’s going to be in the Great Plains. Option 1: An inviting piece 0f dark chocolate and a juicy, fluffy raspberry …
Here’s my 15 year old beautiful red bud tree. Like a bird’s eye chillie, she’s one tough cookie. Sadly, she lost a branch during last year’s ice storm. When the going gets tough, this lady keeps going. Today, she’s Jupiter’s work of ice art. Look! She’s so pweeedy! Everything is so quiet and peaceful here …

What do you do when the mighty ice storm hits, the roads are frozen solid, and there’s no where to go? I pipe dream. I pipe dream of food. Good food like Chicago good food. As I sit here by my frozen window in the middle of nowhere in the Jupiter-hit Great Plains, I close …
