I balance work, spouse, family, house, travel, budgets, home, food and the works just like you do!
I am a north of 50, food lovin’ Italian, flexitarian, married to a food lovin’ Ukrainian, international man of mystery, who doubles as my tech support, photographer, confidant – the rock that I roll with. Dealing with work, food, fun, travelling and family (with a side order of guilt) is standard procedure. I tote a lunch to work and cook dinner most weeknights.
I’m a registered dietitian (RD) by trade with 25 years of experience in counselling, corporate, food and nutrition policy and communications. I'm on the popular Cookspiration App development team and am “Francy the Foodie” for AboutKidsHealth at Sick Kids Hospital. I am a member and co-chair of Health Canada’s Food Expert Advisory Committee (FEAC) and past President and CEO of the Canadian Council of Food and Nutrition (CCFN), Francy Pillo-Blocka RD FDC by name. I have an opinion on most things “food”. And oh, I’m a blogger by night at "Through Thick and Thin".
