Let’s Talk Food and Love
Do you remember a time you when cooked your prized meal for your special someone, only to have it turn into the worst night ever? How about that romantic dinner that made you cry with joy? Cry with embarrassment? It’s time to share the romantic, disastrous, embarrassing stories of FOOD AND LOVE for our special Valentine’s Day Guest Post. Be as creative as you like! Include a recipe if you wish, pictures…
Here’s a wee taste from my story book: (just to get you started!)
Imagine… fresh pumpkin pie for my loved ones. My proud moment. Pulling it out of the box. Heating it up. Watching in anticipation as he took his first mouthwatering bite….. followed by this statement: “Oh my gosh…this is awful.. it tastes raw!!” Lesson learned: Not all store bought pumpkin pies are pre-cooked. Good thing it was my father… he had to keep me around.
Send your story and picture to info@ajocksguide.com along with any blog or website that you are attached to 
I’ll link to it when I post.
Be brave, story tellers… be brave.
Lots of love,
The Jock
Rogers Daytime Television: New Year’s Visit
So the last time I was at Rogers, I made my Grandma’s famous German Pancakes but this time, we kicked off the new year with MY version of the classic Canadian pastry, BeaverTails. Thank you to the awesome hosts, Derick Fage and Lois Lee, for letting me stuff them with cinnamon and sugar goodness… and thanks to the Roger’s Television Family for helping me clean up and dispose of alllllll the leftovers 😉
CONTEST ALERT:
I’m currently on the hunt for a “name” for my pastry! I can’t refer to it as a BeaverTail because I’m not associated with that wonderful company, nor do I have its secret recipe.
I’d like my pastries to have their own identity anyways, so if you have an idea, check out the Facebook page for contest details. You could win an official Jock’s Guide apron if your idea is selected!
Love,
The Jock
