When you think of beach food, French pastry probably doesn't usually come to mind. While I certainly love fried scallops, chowder and s'mores, sometimes I want something a little more refined.

Colin Hay at The Egg
Back in May, I chaperoned a middle school field trip to Montreal. It was an exceedingly long day and somewhere around hour number 16 the acoustic Colin Hay version of Men at Work's song "Overkill" got stuck in my brain. It seemed appropriate.

I was spending the night with a school friend who had hippy parents who joyfully exposed me to all sorts of new things - like a water bed, Fleetwood Mac's Rumors, an unusual musky smoke wafting around and pomegranates. Although I have owned a copy of … Continue reading Love apples
