autumn warmth
Greetings!

September ... we love September! As summer ends, we can count on crisp sunny days and cooler nights to provide a good night's sleep. We can still hang l aundry on the line, enjoy outdoor meals with family and friends, and maybe make time for one more camping trip before the rains come.  

September is also a good month to recharge, re-evaluate or even change our health routines.  Someone once said, “When it comes to diet and health, be proactive not reactive”.  Great advice. Going into the Fall and Winter seasons armed with good health is what we all want.

“Please make sure that all of your utensils, jars, bowls, working surface and food are scrupulously clean. We want the beneficial probiotics to grow – not the uninvited bacteria!” writes Jan. 

We can help you with this. Our pressed wood fibre Epicurean Cutting Boards won’t form grooves like other cutting boards do and they are non-porous so no hidden bacteria. They are knife friendly – easy on your knives so you will sharpen less. They are also heat resistant up to 350°F.
