Our house has a rather large pantry and we keep it full of favourite foods we want to keep at our fingertips, and two of the biggest space fillers are cookies and crackers. Both are staples in our house. Since we started to eat a little better this Summer, I was thrilled to discover Nairns Oat Crackers and Cookie and was suprised I had never heard of them before. Nairn’s Oat Crackers and Cookies are available across Canada in seven delicious flavours, all made from wheat free recipes with whole … [Read more...]

Experiencing Niagara Falls from Above, Below and Behind!
