Through a perspective combining motherhood studies and food studies, I have explored some aspects of the religious, social, cultural, environmental, and economic politics of food and feeding. I have edited two volumes with Demeter Press, What’s Cooking, Mom? Narratives about Food and Family (co-edited with Tanya M. Cassidy, 2015) and Mothers and Food. Negotiating Foodways from Maternal Perspectives (co-edited with Tanya M. Cassidy, 2016), and I contributed a chapter to a third volume by the same press, Moving Meals and Migrating Mothers: Culinary Cultures, Diasporic Dishes and Familial Foodways (2021). Previously, I have also written in a more personal and reflexive voice about similar topics in Cuizine, the Journal of Canadian Food Cultures. At the Université Laval, I am presently involved in preparing a summer school on food and religions (May 2023). I also participated in two workshops on this topic, the latest one on religions and vegetaR/Lian diets.
