Our Silver Moments

I am a retired museum professional, a wife, a mother and grandmother who enjoys sharing my knowledge of cooking and canning. I was born and raised in the Columbia Valley in the heart of the southern interior region of British Columbia. Both my parents were born here so our roots run deep and I love to share information about my family and their relationship to food. I hope you will join me in my journey.

Quick update, I'm sorry, folks, we are experiencing issues with our internet, so I have been trying to upload a video for two days now. Hopefully, that gets resolved soon. Thanks for your patience! ❤️

It is only August, but we had snow fall on the mountains around us. It feels like October! Look for an easy tasty sheet pan meal and super easy dessert coming later today. Hope you are all having a great day! Blessings, Colleen

We have rain! Yahoo! It has been raining for days, so much rain has fallen that the wildfire evacuation alert has been completely lifted for our area. Thank you to all of you who have been praying for this day. Watch for a video coming out later today!

Goodmorning everyone, it started to rain last night and the fire changed direction so we are in the clear so far. Everybody is very relieved this morning. We are not out of the woods yet, but in a much better position today.


Thanks for all your good wishes and prayers ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤎

Hello friends, We find ourselves just a 15 minute drive away from an out of control forest fire that was caused by lightening. We have no idea what that might mean for the channel here in the short term but wanted to give you a heads up that we might not be able to get a video up next week. I will stay in touch the best that I can. The picture is from my husband's family farm. Take care, Colleen ❤️

Good morning, everyone. Please watch for a new video coming out this evening. I am still feeling raw, but it certainly is good to have something else to focus on. Thanks so much for your love and support! Colleen

Hello friends,

Thank you for your patience as we deal with the loss of our daughter. I am trying to get my feet back under me and hope to be back with you soon. In the meantime, thank you so much for your prayers and messages. It seemed that every day, when I was at my lowest, one of you would post a message that reminded me to breathe and be kind to myself. I promise to have something for you soon ❤️

It is with a broken heart that we announce the passing of our amazing daughter last night after a 32 year battle with Lupus. She fought so hard for so many years, and last night, she slipped quietly away on her journey to heaven. She will be forever missed by her father and I, her children Mike and Jessica, her two bothers and sisters, and many nieces, nephews, and friends. Thank you for your understanding as we grapple with this unimaginable loss.
