So what’s cooking here?
Is it enough to say delicious stuff? Yeah, probably not. Ok then, so I love to cook and eat simple, seasonal and delicious food.
I love spending time in the kitchen, cooking and baking and enjoying the best of every season, whether it’s Winter comfort food or Summer meals on the grill. I eat all the foods, except, of course, the ones I don’t like (looking at you, olives :).
I try to keep a healthy balance, indulging in some foods less often than others. I try to follow the Michael Pollan mantra “Eat Real Food, Not Too Much, Mostly Plants.” Truth be told, I struggle with the “mostly plants” part. It definitely doesn’t come naturally to me, but I’m working on it :) #FoodGoals
That said, I do believe that if I’m making food myself, in my own kitchen, from good and fresh ingredients, I’m already a good part of the way to eating well.
So you’ll find a bit of everything here – seasonal and healthy; hearty and comforting; sometimes a little bit sinful … but trying to find that healthy balance and always … real food, done delicious.
A bit more about the cook …
I am a home cook, schooled by trial and error and almost 40 years of getting dinner on the table. And in those 40 years, I’ve learned a thing or two :)
- I’ve learned what works and what doesn’t (and will happily share that knowledge to prevent other people from repeating my mistakes!).
- I’ve learned that time and ingredients are valuable, and nobody wants to waste either of them when it comes to cooking at home (that’s why I only share tried and well-tested recipes with all the tips!).
- I’ve learned that while it’s fun to explore new recipes and flavours, there are some special recipes that stand out amongst the rest and will always show up regularly in my kitchen (scroll down for a few of those special recipes!).
- I’ve learned that eating well doesn’t have to involve lots of time, money or fancy ingredients and that I can absolutely eat delicious food at home without breaking the bank or breaking a sweat (check out my collection of 30-minute meals!
I like to think I’ve cracked the code a bit over the years and figured out how to cook at home easily, simply, seasonally and above all, deliciously!
And yes … I also love to bake because baking therapy is definitely a thing. Whether homemade bread or a little something sweet now and then, there will always be room in my world for some home-baked goodness.
So, whether you’ve been cooking for 40 years too and are out of ideas, or you are a beginner cook and are looking for some seasoned guidance as you learn, you’ll find that here.

Photography usage and round-up requests
Fellow bloggers are free to use one photo from any recipe post in round-up type posts, with attribution by linking the photo and with an accompanying link back to the original recipe post on my site.
It’s cool to post any of my photos on Pinterest or Tumblr (or a similar photo-sharing site), providing the photo links back to the respective recipe page. And thanks for sharing!
The Fine Print (or what’s cool and what’s not)
It’s cool to use any recipe you find on this site on your site (recipes are for sharing!) BUT … If posting on your own blog, please take your own photos and re-write the instructions into your own words. A link back to my original post would be cool, especially if the recipe is original (doesn’t indicate it was adapted from another source).
It’s not cool to post both my photos and recipe copy (re-written or not) on your site or post it onto a recipe sharing site. After all, if you’ve posted all the content on your site (or another site), what reason would anyone have to visit here? And since I’m the one who bought the ingredients, cooked it, photographed it and wrote it up, I figure it’s not too much to ask that visitors enjoy the content on my site (and not yours or theirs). It’s really only fair, right?
It’s not cool to use any photos from this site in any manner other than that detailed above (with a link back to my site).
All photos are © Seasons and Suppers. Always and forever. When in doubt about use, please email me for permission. I’m nice. I am usually happy to share.
