From the frigid, majestic North (Canada), hails a creature like no other. Is it a bear that took up viking-ing? Or a viking that turned into a bear?

I’ve been on a bit of a kettle chip kick, and I’ve been getting reacquainted with the old flame that is Miss Vickie’s. Admittedly I have a thing for older women, and they don’t get…
Brookside Dark Chocolate – Merlot Grape & Blackcurrant
Brookside is the brand I credit with making chocolate covered fruit jellies popular and vogue. They weren’t the first to do it, but they put the snack and themselves on the map, and today’s creative…
