Get Kids in the Kitchen! 2010 EatRight Ontario Kids Recipe Challenge

Do you have a child who likes to cook or help with food preparation? Here’s a great opportunity to help your young chef get excited about being creative in the kitchen.

This is why Dietitians of Canada and the Ontario Ministry of Health Promotion and Sport are working together to get kids excited about healthy eating and creating kid-friendly healthy recipes.

You Won't Find 'I' In Team Sports by Funny Mommy Kathy Buckworth

This generation seems to have developed a love for children's organized team sports unlike any before it. Whether it's an acknowledgement to increased global competition, a focus on fitness, or simply a love of the juice box planning schedule, from soccer to hockey to football, baseball, and anything else where head injuries are imminent, we're all there, screaming (and writing cheques) from the sidelines.

All Hail The Mighty Meatloaf! By Nadine Hughes.

This month I give homage to traditional recipes that have sustained families for years. Recipes that many of us can wing without a formal recipe or if we do have one it’s so covered in spills and stains we can’t decipher if it’s ¼ cup or 4 cups anymore! Recipes like Oven Roasted Chicken, Sunday Night Roast Beef and evenly the lowly Meatloaf.
