To my Ladner Clients

I am sorry to inform you I was refuse at the Ladner Market one's again, This is the Only place in I was never considerate to be part of a Market or a Craft Show.
It is not then they refuse me as they just never respond to my application for the Market one' s again. I guest this is what happen when you are so successful you could bully your way around.
Well You could always come and see us at the Kisilano Market or in Whistler any Sunday this Summer.

fresh mint tea


I love my Cast iron Tea pot  I found it in Bellingham at Russ for $16.00   
What a deal!
I see it on Granville Island at $70.00 
I love to buy local but there is a limit 

Flavor oil




























Fresh mint, sorrel & chive are just some example of fresh herbs you could blend with oil (I like  grape seed oil) in a blender or a magic bullet and  filter true cheese cloth.  I like to make small batch and use them fast as there is a moisture contain in the fresh herbs compare to dry herb you want to keep them in the refrigerator all the time.
You will have a beautiful color and amazing flavor oil at little price,  the chive is great to finish on eggs, salad or stir fry, the sorrel great on fish or a cheese, mint is amazing on a lamb, fish or tofu 
Just have fun
