English muffin with peanut butter and milk


Soup, braised veal with fig sauce, veggies, fudge

That fudge wanted to steal my teeth. The veal was sooo yummy! Veal and figs: it's a good thing.

One of my work team had a little celebration to mark the success of a project that was dear to our hearts: the makeover of the giant Garanteed Pure Milk bottle. Our reward: cupcakes!







I picked a pumpkin cupcake with an amazing maple fluff on top.

Gab picked a chocolaty one

Corinne picked one that had a ghost on it! WooooooooOOOoooo!

We poured glasses of milk and cheered the Milk Bottle!

Diet Coke from the vending machine - $1.25


Shot of whisky

Something sad happened to two of my friends and I felt like I had to have a drink in their honor.

Mashed potatoes, broccoli, ham

Comfort food, I love you.

Ridiculously small snack cake

English muffin, peanut butter, milk


Today, I went on a little adventure in sunny Sherbrooke! I was interviewing students from Université de Sherbrooke who are candidates for an intership in january. The U has a nice department that is all set up for employers to do just this, including refreshments and a little buffet at lunch.

Water - free (per diem)



Juice box from the break room - free


The buffet lunch was nothing to write home about, but it did the trick. I was famished!

Crudités, sandwich, yogurt dip, pasta salad, Diet pepsi


Petits-fours

The white one was a booby-trapped coffee ball of doom. (I hate coffee.)

Vitamin Water and chips - free (paid with per diem)


Apple from home on the bus ride home


Chicken pot pie, mashed potatoes, peas

I've discovered that if you have lumps in your mashed potatoes, just call them "rustic-style" and call it a day.

The last cookie

I think I am done with cookies for a while.

A fall breakfast for a strong artisan

I told you we have a great breakfasts bar at work but since like to eat at home, I rarely take advantage of it. Good thing Samuel is here to show you! Here is his very healthy meal, perfectly balanced and fueling him for a good day of creativity.

What better way to start the day than with a full breafast? Yum.

Waffles, eggs, orange 



In the pm, I went to the theatre to see Zombieland with Marc.
Hot-dog - $3.79 (outrageous!!!!)



Soda - $4.50 (crazy!!!)

I usualy bring my own contraband drink but forgot. These prices are just ridiculous.

Popcorn - $5.45 (insane!!!)


Back home, after a bit of shopping, I made a little dinner starting with a cream sauce prepared with tomato paste, herbs, capers, parmesan cheese and a bit of my onion confit.


As a starter, I had a bowl of my pumpkin soup drizzled with a bit of truffle oil.

Then, gnocchi with my sauce and some parm on top.


And the second-to-last cookie.


By the way, I am well aware that I eat way, way to much carbs. I think it's because I have bears in my family. Winter is coming after all.

Adieu Gourmet

I received my first and last copy of Gourmet magazine on Thursday.

Pretty ironic that I decied to subscribe again last month, just as they shut down. I guess I'm gonna start getting stupid Bon Appétit instead. Grrr...
