Elizabeth Baird Receives Order of Canada A mainstay of the Volunteer Historic Cooks at Fort York, Elizabeth was recently appointed a member of the Order of Canada. Her friends at the fort where she is found frequently preparing food to historic recipes are tremendously proud she was honoured “for her contributions to the promotion of Canada’s diverse food heritage.” The former food editor of Canadian Living magazine, she is the author of more than twenty-five cookbooks. She has co-edited with Bridget Wranich, head of the Historic Foodways program at Fort York, Setting a Fine Table: Historical Desserts and Drinks from the Officers’ Kitchens at Fort York, forthcoming shortly from Whitecap Books. Priced at $19.95, it will be available at the fort’s Canteen shop, mainstreet bookstores, and on the Internet. Photo by Stan Switalski
