eG Foodblog: Peter the eater - Nova Scotia Eats

[heidih]

Thank you for showing me a part of the world I know little about. The photos were wonderful. I think I will see the young miss pushing the rhubarb in her pink stroller for quite a while in my mind's eye. I also really got a sense of ease and freedom about the way you cook. You have inspired me to try a similar salmon "side by side" with the gravlax and ceviche styles. Thank you, thank you for your time & effort.

Wonderful blog, thoroughly enjoyed following along.

Almost tempting me to try doing something with dulse to make it palatable. I saw some packages in the grocery store today.

[Marigene]

Thanks, Peter. I really enjoyed this blog.

Thanks for sharing, Peter! Makes my feet itchy for travel now! That kilt photo is cropped, I just know it! Also, cutest avatar ever.

I wish I'd had more time this week to participate in your blog, but I've really enjoyed it, especially the lovely photos!

[Pan]

This week-long blog has been enourmously fun for me, I can't believe I have run out of days.

Me neither, which must mean that I, too, have been having a great time reading it.

You and your family seem to have a very enjoyable life. And, therefore, I probably can give you no better wish than to just keep living and enjoying!

loved the blog..thanks Peter.

Great job, Peter! I enjoyed this very much, even if I did not pester you with questions. Best to you and your delightful family.

Lovely, just lovely! Is your polydactyl cat a male? Both of mine were; one was a tan-ish tabby and the other, his son, was pure white, with gold eyes. Thanks for a great blog!

[Chufi]

Thank you for a great blog Peter. Ah, all that wonderful seafood! And rhubarb!

I am reading The Shipping News and I while I know Nova Scotia is not Newfoundland, your blog and that book did seem to go well together

A few more words and pictures!

As promised, here are some shots from the Lebanese food place:

And a few points to clear up:

- Pete's Frootique's other store is in Bedford, not Dartmouth.

- My mother-in-law is originally from Forest Hills, NY, not Flushing - sorry Pam.

- judiu: Beryl the cat is an affectionate female.

- heidih: that was actually my son Griffin pushing the pink pram, no worries, they share everything.

- MarketStEl: special thanks for your comprehensive comments.

- jumanggy, little ms foodie and Smithy: here's another kilt shot, can anyone identify this wine cellar? I have never seen such a collection.

Hint: it's in Chicago, been there 20 yrs.

decorated lobster statues, they are everywhere! What variation on this theme does your city have?

←

Toronto has, or did have moose. They were everywhere for a while, but I think a lot of them got broken.

Just a fabulous blog Peter, thank you. We really want to get down to your part of Canada soon!

[Lady T]

Thank you so much for blogging. You and yours seem to live up there with a great unanxious grace, and it was wonderful to share that for a week.

One more image, courtesy of stevarino. This is a monkfish with its head still attached, and it looks as though it has been skinned. It appears to be similar in size to the one I grilled and shared a few days ago.

Warning! The following is a crazy fish photo!

I found you! Great Pics! I'll have to spend some time here!

Wonderful blog!

As a Cajun born and raised in Louisiana and then Texas, I really enjoyed reading about the area my ancestors are from.

Darling children!!

[little ms foodie]

I'm guessing that is in the cellar of Trotters!

[DCP]

Peter,

I'll add my thanks and praise to the chorus of others. It's been a wonderful read, and I'm sad to see the week over so soon.

[Domestic Goddess]

Peter, thank you for inviting us into your world. More health and happiness to you and your family. Hope to see you blogging again soon!

You got it!

Thanks for sharing, Peter. It looks very pretty where you are. Joel and Kim are great, we've met them and had dinner at their place, and have enjoyed Joel's cured meats as well. I also love the mid-east store, and Pete's, and thanks for all the great photos of the farmer's market.

[Kouign Aman]

A lovely week.

My favorite pix are of your kids on the floor with the crab, and of your son pushing the pram + rhubarb. Someone gave our munchkin that same pram.

All that lovely seafood, yum. A week of watching someone else do what I wont dare. Thanks!
