Food & Wine | Recipieces.ca & You

For the majority of us, life is full of to do lists, chores and errands that take up our energy and time.

Some days are easier then others, and sometimes we succumb to the inevitable take out because it is just too easy. I have written about other brands and companies that try to solve that problem of inspiration and convenience in the kitchen by bringing everything you need to the door.
