Soup’s on

Well, soup’s in. It’s all gone already. We don’t have a microwave here and my work is not leftover friendly, so we try to eat as much of whatever’s been cooked right away. Including cookies. It’s almost competitive. Today, after a walk to Chapter’s for kid dictionaries (Ari had a stellar review at the parent-teacher [...]

SCATTERGORIES

Erase my answers and enter yours, post it in my comments. Use the 1st letter of your name to answer each of the following. They have to be real places, names, things..nothing made up! Try to use different answers if the person before you had the same 1st initial. You CAN’T use your name for [...]

Put the potato into the pot

We’ve been going through bags and bags of these fingerling potatoes by President’s Choice. They’re SO good. I just boil them and we eat a bunch with butter and salt, and what ever is left over we fry for breakfast. Healthy, right? Since I found the original peanut (or is it a duck?), I am [...]

I live in babytown

Spent the afternoon with the twins. They haven’t changed much since Thursday, but they are great. I found out that Gabe particularly likes having his picture taken, then looking at the pictures on my camera’s view finder. He laughed and laughed…I admit, I laughed too. Bea is known as the ham, but he’s pretty funny [...]

Mii fit

I have already been blabbing on about it on facebook, but here is where I say it again: I love Wii Fit. If I had the time, I would fiddle with it every day. I especially like the hula hoop game (only because I love it that the Shannon and Ari miis are in the [...]

Sunshine, lollipops and diarrhea?

While most of my life is perfect, occasionally a wrench does get thrown into the works. Today I had the extreme misfortune of drinking bad orange juice at work. Which led to me not being physically able to leave work for a full 15 minutes after my shift was over. Ugh. Of course I am [...]

Finally!

The zipper on my purse broke…2 weeks ago. I was worried every day that stuff would tumble out on the subway or worse, on the floor in a public washroom. I have been looking everywhere for a replacement (and really, I finally got it in my head that I was allowed a nice purse, one [...]

A love letter

Dear Festiva, I know most people would not expect you to be my favourite car in the world, but here we are. On the mornings I see you on my way to work I get an extra bounce in my step, knowing it will be a better day. Sorry for the blurry picture, I had [...]

Title goes here.

I hadn’t been to the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair in forever, so going with T today was a real treat. I love anything farm or farm related, so I was in heaven. Also, any fair that gives away so much free stuff that we had to hunt down an extra bag to carry our loot [...]

Done?

Well, not really. It’s easier on my brain if I do a little work on them and let them rest over night, so for now, they are done. The problem is that if I let myself fiddle, they start looking crazy, so I stop myself. Notice any changes?
