Sunday Morning Coffee

Sunday mornings I usually take some time to read stories I may not have time for through the week. I plan to share some of my favourite links here so that you might catch up on the with your Sunday morning coffee as well.

West-end Halifax farmer fills front yard with corn crop – Nova Scotia – CBC News

It’s the envy of the neighbourhood….he shares his crops with his church…and hopes to save seeds from his cornfield to help his neighbours grow their own corn…what’s not to love about this story!

Bokwang Noh can eat his lawn, and so can his neighbours. Eight-foot stalks of corn fill the the front yard of his west-end Halifax property, and make a tasty treat when harvest time rolls around. The retired military veteran from Korea began growing corn in his yard five years ago. His garden also includes radishes, tomatoes, mint and much more.

A Back-to-School Survival Guide for Grownups — Survival Guides from The Kitchn | The Kitchn

September is for getting back to the routine and that involves grab and go breakfast, packed lunches, and some portable snacks. This a good read and round-up of recipes that might spur some of us back into the kitchen. My summer meal planning is…weak…but I can feel myself gearing up for September. One cannot live on burgers and watermelon alone. Or can we? 😉

This week I returned to school full-time, and although there is no shortage of back-to-school food ideas this time of year, none of it is geared toward me: an adult who needs to subsist on quick, nutritious, largely portable meals and snacks that don’t involve cartoon characters or a ton of sugar. I don’t have the tastes of a toddler or the metabolism of a college freshman. Where’s my back-to-school guide?
