As a cookbook author and culinary instructor, I write a lot of recipes. Probably the most favourite pasta recipe of the masses would be my Famous Sausage & Fennel Pasta. This recipe is in my Volume 3 cookbook in the Chef Dez on Cooking cookbook series.

When Mérida Anderson (pictured) was 16 and told her family she had decided to become vegan, her mother plopped a stack of cookbooks in front of her and said, "We're having chicken for dinner, what are you having?"

This being said, however, I have been asked many times about the preparing the perfect hot wings, and thus I am giving in to share with you my personal favourite.

Nostalgic for Mum's cooking
When asked to share one of her family's traditional Christmas recipes, Pitt Meadows's own Annette Code admitted she was hard pressed to find one - because there weren't many to be had.
Why is that on the menu?
Memory is a funny thing, particularly at Christmas. We like to think that Christmases of old (by that I mean before most of us) were somehow better than the ones of today.
Great Gifts
The holidays are synonymous with many things, including get-togethers with family and friends, shopping and, at the tail end of the season, resolutions. One of the more common New Year's resolutions is a commitment to getting healthier. This year, holiday shoppers can combine the tradition of gift-giving with the tradition of making New Year's resolutions by giving a loved one who wants to improve personal health a gift that can make keeping that resolution that much easier.
