These are extraordinary times. People are scared and suffering under the weight and threat of a global pandemic. Of course, we are not immune to any of that even living in a little town on the western edge of Vancouver Island. We are all in this together.
As you may be aware, our Caplansky’s Deli location in Toronto’s Pearson Airport is temporarily closed. That was our main source of income. It allowed us the ability to move west to help care for Willa’s folks. What now? Well, mustard. And yes, I’ve heard your cries (literally – I’ve been called out) for our smoked meat, beef bacon and smoked turkey. Based on the success of our mustard adventure, you will see meat soon.
But I will do my best not to repeat the mistakes of the past. I don’t want to overwhelm myself. “Slow and steady wins the race,” my Nana, Thunderin’ Thelma herself, always used to say. She was one of the smartest people I ever knew. And she loved me like no other. We’re all in on mustard. Meat will follow but mustard is the first wave. I like that imagery. A wave of mustard.
