If you haven’t seen Margaret’s Portuguese Kitchen on Facebook, or read her blog, Décor and Dining, then you are in for a treat of some great decorating and cooking tips! In this episode we interview Margaret Varela Pereira, blogger and foodie, about her experience immigrating to Canada from Portugal, learning to cook from her mother-in-law, and some of her favorite dishes to eat and to cook.
And there’s a “call to action” at the end, so be sure to listen!
Enjoy our conversation with the lovely Margaret!
