Our weekends are ruled by the hockey schedule of our boys now, but #DadChef and I are making a deliberate attempt to slow down and unplug on Sunday evenings to actually enjoy making a hearty family meal that isn’t rushed and gather together for an end of weekend family feast (just like Nonna used to insist we do when I was growing up). After a

Easy Cold Weather Classic Meal Ideas Your Family Will Love | La Cucina di Kerrs
Nothing warms me up to the idea of classic comfort foods than just having spent the last weekend brr-ing our way through a hockey tournament 😉 Life is feeling fast & full again, and while we’re VERY grateful for every bit of goodness that’s been allowed back into our world, all those slow-cooked meals we enjoyed when things were on pause feel fewer & far
Fried Zucchini Flowers – Fiori di Zucca Fritti | La Cucina di Kerrs
What foods evoke Summer nostalgia for you? Growing up, a sure sign of summer was Nonna’s fresh plate of Fiori di Zucca Fritti – Fried Zucchini Flowers (aka Squash Blossoms). She had the most beautifully tended vegetable garden and picking fresh harvest with her is a memory I’ll never forget (although I now know zucchini are, botanically speaking, a fruit…allora!).

Behind the blog, life wasn’t all yummy recipes & outdoor adventures this week, so you bet DadChef & I turned to one of our healthy coping mechanisms – finding some culinary calm cooking up all the things in la Cucina, silly stupid kitchen dances & a toast to walking through hard parenting things with the biggest glass of Cab Sav ;).

Zucchini Pizza Bianca Recipe – La Cucina di Kerrs
We had a fun little day trip out to the quaint little spot Port Perry in Scugog, Ontario this past weekend and picked up a fresh haul of fruit and veg at their lakefront farmers’ market – in-season peaches & zucchini – and among other recipes, got inspired to make a traditional Zucchini Pizza Bianca. In Italy, Pizza Bianca (“white pizza”) is a pie made
Granpa Loved to Cook – Moving Forward & Sharing Papa’s Legacy
I’ve pulled back from posting a while as our family heals from tremendous loss…as we learn to keep going while the holes in our hearts the size of Papa remain. Almost a month since Dad’s passing – peacefully & after the tender loving care of Mom (his forever love & High School sweetie). He’s a huge part of our family story, of who I am
