to understand
beginnings
have no end

It just occurred to me that not only are we coming to a year’s end but these are the last days of this decade... the second one of a century that still feels new to me. This is how time goes... stealthily and quickly, while we’re busy with our ordinary lives not noticing. Hope you are making the best memories! 💙 : : : : : : : #foodforthought #byebye2019 #aquietstyle #anordinarylife #myquietbeauty #lifeandthyme #smallmomentsofcalm #thesimpleeveryday #thebeautyofsimplethings #myseasonaltable #eattheseasons #wintermood #christmasiscoming #desiblogger #mtlmoments #montreal #514shots #montrealphotographer #darktablemood #moodygrams #ihavethisthingfordarkness #eatlocal #marketdays

I always have an uneasy feeling this time of the year when schools and workplaces appeal to our generosity to donate non-perishable food for the less fortunate. Don’t get me wrong, food drives are a good thing. Their intentions are surely in the right place and they do a great job in visually raising awareness about food insecurity. My uneasiness stems from buying cans of soup and other processed foods that I wouldn’t normally buy to feed my family and friends. What can we do that is better? The best way to support food banks is to donate money. This gives them the freedom to stretch your dollars by buying from wholesalers and to buy fresh fruits and vegetables. Solving someone’s hunger should not come at the cost of their health. ⠀⠀ In the photo...vegan French Canadian pea soup I made awhile back but only got around to posting now 🤦‍♀️ Hope everyone is doing well... finally got all the work stuff out of the way, now time to rest! ⠀⠀ : : : : #soup #soupseason #peasoup #foodsovereignty #foodsecurity #foodsecurecanada #givingback #gratitude #charity #foodforthought #sharingtables #foodwithoutborders #foodstyling #ihavethisthingfordarkness #moodyfood #comfortfood #winterfood #healthylifestyle #healthyfood #madefromscratch #homemade #eatlocal #mtlmoments #mtleats #mtlphotographer #foodstylist

Happy December friends! Apple pie, made and eaten back in October. Is it just me or does the Earth seem to spin faster the last quarter of the year? 🤔 : : : : : : #applepie #myhusbandbakes #pie #december #autumnmood #winteriscoming #christmasiscoming #homemade #bakingday #feedfeed #feedfeedbaking #fromscratch #appleaday #seasonspoetry #seasonschange #eattheseasons #mtlblogger #montreal #mtlmoments #allthingsbeautiful #bakersofinstagram #food #ihavethisthingfordarkness #f52grams #latticepie #pietime #tarteauxpommes #sundaymood

I’ve been so swamped lately that my IG has been lagging behind my life but that doesn’t mean I’m not grateful for this community. Earlier this week, I met my IG friend, Amal @thunapahadiaries in person during his brief visit to Montréal... such a charming young man, as sweet as his bakes! ...a photo of us in my stories (and no, that is not my house, not even in my dreams!). ⠀⠀ In this photo: ceramics from @claybeehive vintage knife from @figsandpigsinsta serving board from @ateliermeipel bread from @premieremoisson ... we are so much better together!
