GLIMMERS 💫

this week, one of my fav clients asked me to assist her in preparing her detox meals.

R E S E T S.

👋🏼

so I think most of you know me by name @rachelbies_ but for down the road, when we maybe get some new carte. followers here's a little blip about moi

🌱 i eat a lot of vegetables but also gimme a bucket of cheese, wine and a great steak and im yours

🌱 i believe in intentions over resolutions and one of those was to live in less fear of failure and open this little shop in hopes for my own joy and bringing something special to the county

🌱 i am allergic and hate cinnamon.

🌱 i talk a lot. so if you're in a rush when you come in, tell me or else i will keep you there, too long 😂

🌱 im a full-time, 24/7 working solo mama to a bean who's nearly 6️⃣, it's a lot but hopes this does well and helps US build out our future 💫

🌱 I really love soup. I will eat soup in the dead of summer. And not just chilled 🧊

🌱 i want to make classics for everyone BUT also want to push the flavour borders and make fun, playful foods for you to try too!

🌱 since moving to PEC, ive never owned so many matching sweatsuits. and i rarely wear heels 👠 but i often still say hello to them

🌱 im terrible at names, so please forgive me if it takes me a moment for new faces - not a jerk just a terrible memory 🧠

🌱 PLEASE take the time to come in and say 👋🏼, and introduce yourself!

🌱 bonus: I'm also a registered nutritionist/CNP so for clients with extra dietary restrictions or targeted diets WE will offer 1:1 consultations and create a file so WE always have something on hand (very least frozen 🥶) for you to grab every week!

OKAY so more than a blip !!!

happy 2025 x we are so excited and appreciative of all the love and support 💚

i don't often like to brag or pimp my sh*t out, but

TODAY IS NOT THAT DAY 🔥

for those that know us well, we had a few rocky financial years (accounts being emptied and custody lawyers) so the thought of buying a new car or a large purchase was not even in my vision board

BUT today. No co-signer, a large deposit, researched myself, paid for by myself and went in and negotiated BY MYSELF is a big day for ME.

it wasn't easy.
and im nowhere near where i want to be yet financially
im still pretty frugal
and rarely buy anything new

BUT i deserve this.

to most, it's just a car but to me its freedom that i worked towards (and safety for our family of 2)

so today, im bragging it up

S/O to Cian @kingston_toyota for being a gem to work with

*yes i totally made Cian take a pic 🤳🏼

💙 oh the mental health stigmas and being vulnerable, esp with with added guilt of work not being open...

so I'm fine!

but apparently my panic attack a few days ago never really left my body - no sleep, ptsd, my pills are no longer performing as they need to be

so five days later after having severe chest pain, shortness of breath and no sleep - I called telehealth.

They told me make an immediate appointment with our fam doctor

as luck would have it, he is on vacation until the end of the month (well deserved)

so they said get to emergency to rule out heart issues

so the vicious cycle of insomnia, anxiety, pills not working and a panic attack have left me in a constant state of short breathes and chest pain (which I can usually work through or hide)

the doctor said get to bed.
Rest.
Take Valium to end the cycle (the no sleep isn't helping) and then Monday I'll go in to slowly change over pills, stress test and such

WHY am I sharing this - well I'm supposed to rest, but i also am a one income home.
And B is very expensive 😂

So I'm taking today to rest, and pending how I feel - until I sort this out will maybe have shorter hours this week

BUT all our standing clients are fine and everything always works out

*also don't wait 5 days to go to docs 🙄

💋 imma bath and tea and rest for the day, and apologies for not being there

*this is not from today 😂 📸

STORY TIME 📕

for years in YYZ, ive been making kimchi stew and then when i first opened @carte_pec IT was one of my first dishes

many of you had never tried or heard of kimchi BUT you gave it a shot, and trusted me!

AND to this day it's one of my top sellers and SUCH a nourishing dish

🥬 base is beautybroth / bone broth

🥬 kimchi - fermented cabbage, spices and veggies WHICH is gut health ⭐️

🥬 GF - made with rice cakes or sliced cakes

🥬 tons of garlic, ginger and onions = immune booster

🥬 miso - added vitamins, gut health, antioxidants and PROBIOTICS

🥬 pork tenderloin - lean and clean, high protein which we all need 😝

🥬 zesty- which is great for metabolism and is a slow digestion meal. I eat it solo but you could eat over rice to add more bulk!

🥬 BONUS freezes well!!!!!

AND now making it with our lovely friends @stellaseatery kimchi which you can also purchase in store with sauerkraut and DLM

LOCAL SUPPORTS LOCAL 💚
