The Chelsea Smokehouse woo hoo!

There's a new business in the family: my brother Michael has bought one of his favourite places, an artisanal salmon smokehouse near his home in Chelsea, Quebec, and has spent months learning how to smoke. Salmon.

They'll be opening in a few weeks. Imagine, we now have limitless supplies of delicious smoked salmon in the family! I'm happy and proud - wish my parents could be at the opening. If you're in Ottawa, take a quick ride over the bridge to Quebec and give yourself a treat.

    I'll try this out on my next trip to Ottawa! Looks delicious. Older son works in Gatineau so we often cross the river...

    Fantastic! You can buy some for a family picnic in the Gatineau or at Kingsmere.

    I don't know - I'll find out, George. He opens next week and is frantically busy. Very exciting. I do hope you can soon have a taste of some family lox!
