Ottawa has some serious winter appeal

How I like to kill time

Out of season, without reason

A little chaos after the storm in Blind River

A little chaos after the storm in Blind River

Dinner last night - sometimes, we cook together and it’s really good! 
The sweet potatoes reappear, I’ve got a secret blend of spices that will make your potatoes potatWOWS! I prefer to roast mine, wrapped in aluminum with a light drizzle of EVOO and salt and pepper. Yesterday’s adventure to the Byward Market left us with some beautiful heirloom carrots that were roasted the same. Sweet potatoes are a regular around our house, easy and delicious. 
Okay, you’ve held out long enough for me - My secret? Allspice, cinnamon, chili flakes and a little bit of olive oil. Stir, enjoy, enjoy the next day too. 
We also delved right into the glory that is pickerel, roasted with fresh herbs and balsamic.The highlight however, were our seasonal favourite fiddleheads sauteed with garlic, onion, olive oil and fresh basil leaves.
