"I travelled west at age 18 for one summer and never made it home. I knew that I wasn't ready for univer- sity directly out of high school and wanted to see the world much to everyone's dismay," says Dinney. "I had it in my mind that I was going to wake up in the mornings and be able to be on the ski hill in less than five minutes. In the off sea- son I was going to see the world through travelling," Dinney adds. Now a few years later Dinney is living out a dream, having just taken part in creating a cookbook, "Fabulous Fairholme Breakfasts & Brunches," with Sylvia Main, owner of the historic and award winning Fairholme Manor Inn, where Dinney is the chef. Dinney, who was educated at Camosun College in Victoria, B.C., where the Fairholme Manor Inn is, was originally interested in competi- tive cooking, and was on the grand prize winning team of the 2006 Grand Marnier Dessert challenge and apprentice to Jeff Keenliside, winner of the Vancouver Island Chef of the Year Competition. Dinney met Main while eating breakfast with her grandmother Ada Dinney at Main's Inn. "I was intrigued by the quality of the food and Main's style. Nestled in Victoria's beautiful neighbourhood our `dynamic duo' was born," says Dinney. "I created my own position for myself at Sylvia's Inn and started working the next morning at 7 a.m. We have been together ever since," Dinney adds. After several requests for recipes from customers, Main suggested compiling everything in a cookbook. "We actually sold over 100 books before we even started," and "In the first month of publication we sold over 1,400 books," says Dinney. Dinney and Main had never writ- ten a book before but piece by piece Dinney says things came together for the duo. "I am thrilled with the end result...but it didn't come without many long dark, rainy winter days in the office, late nights and a few 'what the heck are we doings?" admits Dinney, adding that she and Main actually didn't really stick by the conventional standards while writing the book. "I always tell Sylvia we are both ones who never take the easy road or the common road but we always get the best result. That's part of our success." Dinney says the hard work on the book is far from over with promo- tions, cooking shows, book signings, demonstrations, shipping and sales. "We love it though. We are always running," says Dinney enthusiastical- ly. As for a favourite recipe, Dinney says it's a tough question but, "the lemon heart shaped scones are our signature and they are so moist and delicious but the Lemon Lavender Blueberry Muffins are hard to beat or maybe it's the Baked Raspberry French Toast...very tough question." Cookbook created — Sunny Dinney, a former Exeter resident and chef for the Fairholme Manor Inn in Victoria, B.C. has just helped create a cookbook with Fairholme Manor Inn owner Sylvia Main. (photo/submitted) Developing community visions EXETER — What do you want your community to look like? My name is Tristalyn Russell, and I'm a planning assistant in the Planning/Building Department with the Municipality of South Huron. I recently graduated from the University of Western Ontario's Media, Information, and Technoculture pro- gram. Over the next couple of months I will be writing a series of articles about economic development in co- operation with the South Huron Chamber of Commerce, the Exeter Business Improvement Association (BIA) and the Municipality of South Huron. It's our hope that these articles will increase your awareness and inspire you to become involved in the development of our community. Economic development has many meanings, and most often it is associated with money. However, economic development does not only include a growth in the local economy, but also an improvement in citizens' quality of life. This improvement can be a result of job creation, increases in the standard of living, providing more necessities such as food and shelter, or creating more social choice and awareness. In the end, the goal is improving the welfare of residents in our community. There are several initiatives under way in South Huron working towards this goal. There are opportunities for South Huron to get involved in community -building events such as Communities in Bloom, a municipal beautification and sustainable development program, or Doors Open Ontario, a festival providing public access to local historical, architectural or cultural sites. The South Huron Chamber of Commerce and the Exeter BIA have been working on the Business Retention and Expansion (BR&E) project which helps identify opportunities to assist local businesses in expansion, retention and creation of jobs, as well improving the local business climate. Land use planning is also another tool that can be used to help shape our area, as work continues to go on to develop new planning documents that sup- port economic development initiatives. South Huron is a community of communities with great potential. Exeter has many beautiful heritage buildings that grace the downtown, servicing Crediton and Centralia with sewers creates opportunity for develop- ment, and Huron Park is undergoing a huge revitaliza- tion of both its residential and industrial side. The BR&E project undertaken by our local Chamber of Commerce and BIA is an excellent example of how groups can join together to maximize the potential of the South Huron community. In the coming months, I will describe some of the resources available for communities to take advantage of their strengths and support economic development opportunities. Creating strong communities will require teamwork and co-operation. Input is needed from resi- dents, local government, businesses and community groups to address the issues fairly and represent all groups. It's our community and that's why it's so important we all become aware of the economic development activities happening in South Huron and get involved. I look forward to your comments or suggestions.
