Introduction is authored by me, Marion May. I prepared all of the food and took all the photos you see on this blog. I am a writer, artist and literacy advocate living in Ottawa, Canada. Cooking, baking, running, gardening, event planning are my sideline activities. Oh yes...and taking pictures of food! Breadbaking is my speciality. I now make bread dough in one of my many breadmakers, shape the dough and bake it in the oven. {One of my breadmakers was recently adopted to a good home at my neice's house in Southern Ontario.} Most of all I love writing-especially about food!
