Michele Sabad Livres

Food. Who doesn’t love food and stories about food? Michele Sabad takes us along for some of her adventures with food and episodes about coffee, and steaks. About wine, and nachos. Oatmeal. Grilled Cheese sandwiches. There are recipes (sort of), observations about restaurants, and life lessons. It’s about family and changes in eating as we grow, as society moves along, as one can afford. In true storytelling style, the anecdotes are heartwarming, insightful, amusing, and cautionary accounts of people, like the author, and the intimate relationships they have—with food. A charming memoir, story-by-story, by the author of Camp Follower One Army Brat’s Story. Interesting and fun. Take a break, grab a snack and drink, and indulge yourself with the tales.

Michele Sabad takes us on one Canadian Army brat's life journey with stories about a childhood in Calgary, Germany, Labrador, and Saskatchewan; becoming a young Air Force wife and Hockey Mom in Edmonton, Kingston, Winnipeg, and Cold Lake; building a career in Information Technology; and finally, settling in a new culture and life in Ottawa and Aylmer, Quebec. Michele's story will interest, inspire, and enlighten both those who grew up in "the life" and those curious to peek at how this kind of life turned out. "A base brat life, sure, but one unique in Canadian history-kids don't grow up like this anymore-not even military kids. Fascinating insight; a slice of Canadiana."

2020. Globally, the world governments dealt with a deadly pandemic. Locally, people wrestled with the effects on their own lives and lifestyles. Lost Year A Pandemic Diary 2020 is one such individual's experience, blogged about month by month as the year, and the pandemic, progressed. Filled with reflections, anecdotes and stories, this book, like the year, is memorable for the pain, the suffering, even the humour, but above all, for the hope of one human's spirit to persist.Michele Sabad is the author of two previous memoirs, Camp Follower One Army Brat's Story and First We Eat. Food, Life, and More Stories. Both, like this book, are filled with tales of her life as an army brat, Air Force wife, hockey mom, and retired computer consultant, living in her kids' hometown of Aylmer, Quebec, Canada.
