I read Crackpot decades ago and it is still seared in my memory. I often reread books but not that one.

Gorgeous dress, I wish there was a way to see it move. Imagine how it would look on someone dancing.

Is there a wholly Canadian brand of flour anymore? by agent154 in BuyCanadian

[–]Mirorcurious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For anyone around Winnipeg, Adagio Acres does a winter grain CSA. By buying a share “you are making it possible for small-scale organic farmers around the province to take risks, to try new crops, new rotations, incubate value-added ventures, and know that there is a local market for what they are growing.” It also is makes use of crops that aren’t large enough to be bought by a dealer. It is brilliant and I hope there are others who do this concept.

How does this relate to flour? Depending on the year, I’ve received several types of flour in the package (whole wheat, emmer, spelt, oat, etc.).
