Taco night. We make tacos regularly at home. It's a quick, easy and tasty meal. Especially for summer when the weather makes a big meal just too much. We mix it up and use hard, soft, and lettuce shells. @Gerrythorpe had mastered making corn tortillas and I've perfected our house taco seasoning that gives the right kick without to much salt. A drizzle of chipotle hit sauce on dollop of sour cream makes for a nice photo, but sometimes it's just great to pile on grilled eppers and onions.

Because the canning is never done processing before the sun sets. And tonight the bugs just need to chase the smell of cherry jam and mulled cherry jelly to find me.

Final course: 11. Chocolate & cherry! @BoskTO listed the final tasting menu dish as parsnip cheesecake... it's like a little devil had called them and told them about my relationship with parsnips. Which, let's just say, i s far from cordial. Chefs across the city have teased me by serving it when I'm at a tasting menu committed to try everything out in front of me. The team at Bosk were gentler and let me swap out for chocolate and cherry, two of my favourite flavours together. Cocoa nib ice cream alongside many plays on chocolate and cherry and textures. Thanks to the entire team at Bosk for treating us like we were on a media dinner, when we weren't. From our server Lauren (with whom I share a river), to our Somm whose name I didn't catch (oops) and @chef_rsingh and his team back of house. The meal and experience was lovely start to finish. #chocolate #cherry #dessert #sweet #boskTO #dinner #chefsmenu #the6ix #Torontofood #tofoodies #tastethesix #Torontoeats #toeats #tastingmenu #staycation #playcation @shangrilato #Toronto #luxury #foodielife #foodanddrink #f52grams #instafood #igerscanada #fbcigers #foodblogger #feedfeed #food52 #LexGoFurther via Instagram ift.tt/2mns6bD

I honestly don’t know why I’m up so early today. But what a glorious sunrise and surprise I found out the window. Guess I slept through the weather. I hope your day contains some beauty and maybe even some good surprises.

Leaving @marbill_hill_farm property for the first time in 2 weeks aka 15 days aka 360 hours. I’m very lucky to have room to get out an about and still #stayathome and be social distancing. I probably won’t leave the car, but I put on my “going to town” pants and my fancy shoes. (Okay let’s be honest, I put on shoes.) . . . #wearingpants #wearingshoes #ootd #LexGoFurther #LexGoNowhere via Instagram instagr.am/p/B_IRO6SBTMb/

No cute foal shot today, she was back in her stall before I got a break today. So instead I give you Pixie on the driveway. As we were out for our 4pm constitutional... I.e. walk around the farm after the staff has left so we maintain distance. . . . #walkies @marbill_hill_farm #pixiembh #otherpeoplesdogs #driveway #beautifulday #LexGoFurther via Instagram instagr.am/p/B_6DFkgBS_g/

Last night’s birthday dinner was at @surirestaurants. The food was very good, and we had the option of ordering from either the menu (mainly tapas, flatbreads and small plates) and a couple of “You & Me” entree sized sizes like this gorgeous osso buco w/ gnocchi that @tilfordduncan ordered. Or the Wednesday night Asada special - an Argentinian-style all you can eat bbq with meats grilled over a large open fire. Unfortunately, we didn’t all order the Asada option which was quick and easy and while all the food was tasty, it took almost 2 hours for most of the food to start rolling out to the table. Luckily the company was excellent and we had a great, albeit long, night. . . . #ossobuco #gnocchi #suriwest #wef #wellieworld #wellingtoneats #lovefl #floridaeats #wef2018 #birthdaydinner #fbcigers #foodblogger #nyeeats #foodforfoodies #foodielife #foodietribe #lovefood #foodblogger #canadianblogger #foodanddrink #eatingforinsta #palmbeachfl #treasurecoast #treasurecoastfood #LexGoFurther via Instagram ift.tt/2lZ0yrN

Corn fritters for dinner with a sriracha maple dip. Fritters made with 1/2 fresh, 1/2 roasted corn, parmesan, an egg, chives, scapes, flour, corn starch, and a hit of cayenne. Pan fried in a spicy olive oil. Dip made with homemade sriracha, homemade maple syrup and @sheldoncreekdairy sour cream (which is actually sour and fantastic!). I'd say, I killed it!

Last tourtiere of the season baked off and ready for dinner. These single serving pies worked beautifully... Especially since if you pack them as full as I did, they are enough for 2 if you have sides and dessert. (Or folks who aren't big eaters.) So good.

Noodles, lovely Singapore Noodles. I discovered this dish at small hole in the wall with just enough room for two huge woks in Waterloo near the university. And it has been one of my comfort foods for over 30 years. If you haven't tried it, it's a rice noodle dish flavoured with yellow curry powder with veg, egg and a usually a combination of chicken, shrimp and BBQ pork (char siu). Great as a side, in lieu of rice, or as a meal on its own. . . . #noodles #singaporenoodles #houseofgourmet #chinatowntoronto #currynoodles #shrimp #ricenoodles #dundaswest #foodTO #cheapeats #cheapeatstoronto #foodpics #food #fbcigers #comfortfood #toronto_restaurants #LexGoFurther via Instagram ift.tt/2h99WGa

Weirdest night trying to order-in. First restaurant wasn’t answering their phone and the second was out of everything we wanted. We said “screw it!” And ordered @burgerfi for pickup. In the same amount of time we spent trying to order in we ordered, drove over, picked it up and we’re back home eating. And dinner we excellent even without grill asparagus and bordelaise. . . . #dinner #burger #cheeseburger #burgerfi #wellingtoneats #wellieworld #wef2018 #burgersfordinner #brandedburger #bun #food #pickup #fbcigers #florida #LexGoFurther via Instagram ift.tt/2mHSo6O

Syrup deliveries for those who leant a hand, fixed the tubing, hauled sap, chopped wood, built a fire and stood in the cold for hours. Sugaring is a labour intensive activity.

Meanwhile, this heat wave is doing wonders for my sriracha fermentation. (Especially since I had to slow it down by shoving it in the fridge at the farm for a week because I couldn't take it home with me on the Go Train.) Imagine the looks I'd get from the commuters at 7am. "Sorry, you'll have to find another seat. This one's reserved for my hot sauce" said no one ever.

A little winter island time during #LexGoFurther. Lots of snow, lots of storms and one incredibly adorable puppy!

Next level stuff here: avocado deviled eggs from @greaseburgerwpb! Complete with candied bacon. I even added some of their Hell Sauce to really bring out the devil in those eggs.

Why, yes I did just whip up a peach cobbler with those peaches ripening on the counter. I did it the way i was taught, with sweet biscuits making a cobblestone pattern across the top. Though I did make a biscuit dough cylinder and slice off rounds rather than doing drop biscuits or even properly cutting the biscuits (so they didn't rise properly. But they taste sooooo good!
