Her book has been out for ages so I don’t mind telling you the secret is an unhinged layering system, replacing some of the ricotta with sweet potato and adding spinach. Superhero stuff.

I barely run these days but that’s not stopping me from making Shalane’s marathon lasagna to carb load for the Toronto marathon which I will most definitely not be running. 😅

They want Bloor back because the other east-west roads are difficult to weave and race on because of the streetcar tracks.

Two lane roads with occasional parked cars and occasional left turning cars are unpleasant to drive for anyone who isn’t driving like they are playing a video game.

Cheryl White @ladyscorcher.bsky.social · 10/10/2026

I live near Bloor and my experience improved for cycling, driving and walking when the bike lanes were installed. The people who drove faster before the lanes went in are the antisocial drivers who weave through traffic and cut others off.

I harp on this all the time, but there is so much peer reviewed solid evidence that we benefit from small talk with strangers, knowing our neighbours, chatting with our baristas, etc. And I believe that our shift away from that stuff is at the root of all our antisocial behaviour right now.

"Ripping out these protected bike lanes against the will of Toronto city council is a colossal waste of $48 million. The province’s own experts know it will not ease traffic congestion, it will put people’s lives at risk…” One of the stupidest things I’ve ever seen any politician do to any city.

In the past month, I've started waking once a week at 1am--involuntarily--& being so wired that I can't get back to sleep all night. Couldn't figure out why. Wasn't doing anything different. Just realized: I'm scared by what I'm seeing in my research. Nihilistic billionaires toying with our lives.

My decision flow on if I ride my own bike is related to if I need to make a one way trip or if I am wearing wide leg pants that require a chain guard. Starting to think I should install a chain guard on my own bike.

I was just thinking the same thing. I miss the longer days but light wool layer season is wonderful. And outfits that work both outdoors and inside are really nice too.

Fall is the best season and I will not be debating this. I'm in a sweater biking to work. I will arrive at the perfect temperature, not sweaty and not cold. It's sunny out, but I don't need sunscreen. The best.

Riding a bike share or walking through the woods in High Park to get to my near-weekly hospital appointments feels like a cheat code for maintaining my mental health this year. Everyone deserves to live in a place where you don’t have to be car dependent.

It’s been two years since Ontario Place West Island was destroyed for a planned private spa. Hundreds of trees were cut down - here’s a snapshot of the many species who lost habitat. 🧵

I am once again at Biidaasige. $1.5 billion in investment that’s going to unlock something like $10 billion in development. An engineering project that allowed landscape architects to lead. We are very fortunate.

The other important point is that these lanes serve the front of these hospitals, while vehicle access is all at the back. The people wanting to displace cyclists are mainly driving from the mansion area of Toronto to the financial district of Toronto.

It was 2019 so some of these lanes weren’t yet built and every time a driver passed me too close I remember thinking: “the healthcare system is going to a lot of trouble to keep me alive and it would be a real bummer if I got run over on my way to my appointment”

When I was a frequent visitor of the hospitals I usually rode my bike. Slowly riding to the hospital felt like a good level of exertion was more manageable than the stairs associated with the subway or the parking garage.

I contrast ABC Toronto’s opposition of University bike lanes in May using a badly faked AI image, claiming it’s a hospital corridor 1st, w dozens healthcare workers rallying this week in support of lanes, w 650 of them signing an open letter to Doug Ford. Very Real vs Very Fake.

Wait what? I used to buy that brand, then they were acquired and discontinued and now they are relaunching but closing factories? Also the company is called maple leaf but their factories are apparently all in the US?
