I, Stephanie Mitchell, believe that everything is better with a dollop of cream.
Bowl of poached quince? Check.
Ladle of borscht? Check.
Bad day? Check.
Vase of daffodils? Okay, maybe not everything.
I am a West Coast transplant now living in Montréal. I am drawn to old-fashioned recipes, because I believe that cooking should be simple and tasty. Sometimes, I find simple and tasty new-fashioned recipes and I don't discriminate: I know they are destined to be classics, so I add them to my collection.
Since I love eating good food and trying new things (upon which I may dollop cream), I also love trying new restaurants. I have passionate opinions about what's good and what's bad at restaurants, and I've shared my favourites – across Canada, the U.S., Europe and Japan – in hop & go fetch it.
In my other life, I am a writing coach for lawyers and other business professionals. Here's my website. When I'm not in the kitchen or working, I like to read novels, drink tea, plant garlic, and go on picnics.
