Grillin' like a villain



Those who know me, know that I loooove charcoal BBQ. Here's a shot of some tofu/veggie kabobs from a couple weeks back.

Latest BBQ discovery, marinated broccoli on the grill is AWESOME!

Flotsam: enabled



Found this big 'ole piece of driftwood on my travels along the shoreline last week.

I wish I had put something in the shot for a better sense of scale. That tire is ~4-5 ft. in diameter, with what looks like a telephone pole in 4 pieces stuck in the middle.

It looks like it is a piece of a wharf, or is it something else? Ring toss for giants perhaps?

Lines 'o' colour



I like the how the lines of colours turned out. There are thousands of periwinkle shells littering the shoreline on this point, so neat!

Apple Berry Re-Opening: Wood fired bread!



Apple Berry farm market in Bridgewater was bustling with activity Saturday morning, in preparation for their grand re-opening.

Above is a shot of a portable wood fired bread oven, festooned with all manner of local grain products from Speerville Mills in New Brunswick.

Sadly, I was not able to stick around for some fresh baked goodies or the free pork roast, boo'rns!

Check out Apple Berry's excellent selection of 'happy' meats from Meadowbrook Farms (valley), gluten free items from Schoolhouse Gluten-free Gourmet (Martin's River), dairy products from Foxhill Cheese (also from the Valley) and my personal fave: frozen cider from Boates (from the valley, where else?).
