Life & My Dog. 10 Favourite Small Businesses for Canada Day! July 1, 2016. I am obviously passionate about supporting local, Canadian businesses, but my real love affair is with the wonderful people behind them. On this wonderful celebration of our 149 year old nation, I wanted to feature 10 of my favourite (yes, there’s a ‘u’ in favourite you silly Americans) Canadian Small Businesses, in no particular order, of course. 1 Little Blue Canoe / Kelly. Follow her on Facebook. 2 Picot Collective / Britt.

Homemade Condiments |
http://www.handmadetherapy.ca/2014/03/24/homemade-condiments
A while ago I was sent a copy of the book Homemade Condiments. By Jessica Harlan. This book is totally my kind of cookbook. If I can make it instead of buy it, you know I will. I only recently started making salad dressings and they were seriously lacking inspiration so this book has inspired me to step it up a notch. I also made a honey mustard recipe that turned out great as well. I put it on a ham sandwich and I’m pretty sure it would go really well as a dipping sauce too. Want to win a copy? Click to...

About Me |
http://www.handmadetherapy.ca/about-me
I’m Hilda and this is a small corner of my world. I love to sew, grow food, bake, cook, and just about anything else I can do myself. I spend the majority of my time with my four kids as a stay at home. I also design handbags and other sewn items as well as design sewing patterns. My husband and I grow our own food in our city yard, hunt our own meat, and source the rest of our food locally and ethically whenever we can. I live in Calgary, Alberta Canada where it’s cold far too often. I’m intereste...

Garden Beginning of June |
http://www.handmadetherapy.ca/2012/06/07/garden-beginning-of-june
Garden Beginning of June. Kaed’s gotten quite good at digging out dandelions from the backyard. Not a bad thing to have your 5 year old do for you 😉. Kohlrabi is coming up! I’ve never had Kohlrabi before so I’m pretty excited to try it. Tomatoes are coming along nicely too. We try them every year and have yet to be successful but I’m confident this year is the year. Last year they actually grew well but Ara consistently picked them just as they started turning red. Click to print (Opens in new window).

Chokecherry Jelly |
http://www.handmadetherapy.ca/2013/09/26/chokecherry-jelly
We were a few days late this year meaning the birds had cleared two of the three trees already. The kids got right in on the picking which made it go really fast. We had a good 6 liters in about half an hour. Two years ago Travis made wine out of the berries, this year I used it for Jelly. I ended up making up the recipe as I went as I found only a couple recipes for Chokecherry Jelly specifically online and both of them had ridiculous amounts of sugar in them. 3 cups of water. 35 cups chokecherry juice.

More Kids Clothes Week Sewing |
http://www.handmadetherapy.ca/2014/01/31/more-kids-clothes-week-sewing
More Kids Clothes Week Sewing. A few months ago I splurged and bought some Liberty of London Hello Kitty fabric. Ara is a big Hello Kitty fan and I’ve always wanted to buy some Liberty of London fabric so I figured it was just meant to be. Today I finally cut into it and sewed up a dress for my girl for this coming Summer. I might have to find a cardigan and some leggings for her to wear with it though because she has her heart set on wearing it to church this coming Sunday. After attempting to photograp...

Honeybees, A Closer Inspection |
http://www.handmadetherapy.ca/2013/06/12/honeybees-a-closer-inspection
Honeybees, A Closer Inspection. Travis did some cleaning out in the hive a couple of weeks ago and I snapped about a hundred photos. Here are some of my favorites. That really is all he wears when he goes in the hive. Our bees are super docile, which is fantastic. Near the end of his cleaning, probably a good 45 minutes in they started to get a bit aggressive so he put a net on his head but no stings! Not a sting yet from this hive.
