Brr.

As I already told Laura, I am having an all-choked-up sort of day and these 2 fellows patiently waiting their master inside the grocery store really captured my mood. The lighter coloured dog has a funny sort of lumpy head that at first I thought was snow piling up. It’s -6C here, pretty chilly. They [...]

Happy family

I love that I got all three of the girls in one picture. They were all chilling out together last night and the camera flash didn’t seem to bother them at all. Unlike the red laser pointer that makes them all go crazy. Sorry about that. I told the women at my (last) quilting class [...]

The winter blechs

Dog owners. You know, the main reason I don’t have a dog is because there’s no way in HELL I would ever pick up dog crap. I know that somehow it would get on me, under my nails or a skid down my sleeve that would go unnoticed. And I think that a lot of [...]

Phone

I got a new phone the other day. My old, crappy phone was no longer holding a charge so it felt like time to trade up for something half decent. Half decent, she says? Ok, I got an iphone. And guess what! I LOVE IT!!! It takes great pictures on top of everything. And while [...]

Whatever the opposite of gorgeousness is

Shannon and Ari were watching some documentary about animals on the verge (as in, the last one in the world) of exctinction and paused it at this screen shot. Lord. I stared at this for half an hour while he made dinner.  Never has the name Turdy been more appropriate. It’s not a caption, it’s [...]

Salmon=Success

The gravlax I mentioned the other day was unwrapped, rinsed, sliced and eaten. Not entirely, no, that would be crazy, but we ate about a quarter of it. A lot. The only thing I would do differently-next time I make it and there will be a next time-is to use actual Kosher salt rather than [...]

It’s a Rose

She’s grey, she’s fat, she meows!

It’s a 2 parter

1. Pigeon! This one, again at Bathurst Station, was too pretty to ignore so I snapped her picture. She looked like she might be offering Lotto advice. This was across from the Jamaican patty bakery downstairs. 2. For Joanie: One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish pants. On Queen West, outside of CityTV. It’s [...]

Rescued!

No pictures, sorry, he’s shy. But I rescued the World’s Smartest Turtle from certain death earlier today. Or yesterday, I guess, same thing. When I woke up and walked past the pond there was no water squizzling out of the squirter and I was all, DANG IT! because I’d just cleaned the filter and it [...]

I’ve told you a million times!!

I. Love. PIGEONS!!! Check out the attitude on the fellow in the back.  This was a pack of junior pigeons that had silly feathers and didn’t really know what to do when a giant, zombie chasin’ truck was bearing down on them.
