Stew
Did you think I had fallen down a rabbit hole? Well I sort of did. We’re in the middle of renovating the main bathroom in our little home by the sea. It’s not very big, this bathroom, but when we take stock of what’s being done, it’s not too unlike building a small home. Tiling, […]
Hi all you Galley Kat Peeps. I thought that this month instead of a collection of your most viewed recipes, I’d re-post my favourite chowder recipes. Last week’s post of Fisherman’s Stew was one of your most searched of my little galley recipes this month (you can find that recipe here). Is it maybe because […]
We recently took a vacation from our little home by the sea to visit Cape Breton and the beautiful Cabot Trail. Fall….in my opinion…. is the best season in Nova Scotia.

As some of you know we have been homeless for the past few months. Our condo in Montreal sold and closed the 12th October. All our wordly possessions were packed into an 8’x8’x16’ POD moving container which is now waiting for delivery this coming week. During the transition of closing in Montreal and closing here […]
LA GARBURE – #15 of 44 FRENCH CLASSICS YOU NEED TO TRY BEFORE YOU DIE
Back at it, picking away at my 44 French Classics. So many of the South-western French recipes on the list are basic stews with varying ingredients. For this next one, I found many recipes of the same name but the meat ingredients seemed to vary. The common elements were duck legs, cabbage, and were heavy […]
Captain and the Kat aren’t the only able-bodied chefs in our galley.. During my son Luke’s recent visit, I had him help prepare our evening meal. Always eager to give a hand, he jumped right in, donning his favourite apron. He did a marvelous job browning the sausage… …adding fistfuls of […]
POT-AU-FEU – #14 of 44 CLASSIC FRENCH MEALS YOU NEED TO TRY BEFORE YOU DIE
