I was watching Modern Family on Wednesday, dying of laughter at what was referred to as “Satan’s Trifecta”, with Claire, Haley, and Alex all on the same “cycle”. I laughed at poor Phil’s angst as I ate handful after handful of trail mix, wondering how I could possibly still be so hungry. I wondered how, […]
The Anti-Clean Plate Club
February 26, 2012 by
This morning the world is white and grey, snow falling and the colour of the sky perfectly matching that of the ground. Jake has the sniffles, my husband had a cortisone shot in his shoulder on Friday and hence has been rendered the one-armed man (wasn’t there a show about that?), I am running the book […]
Whale Tail!
February 23, 2012 by
At first I was going to do a “Wordless Wednesday” post – does anyone still do that? I’m so hip to the scene – but then I realized that it’s Thursday, which is great, really, but probably means that “Wordless Wednesday” isn’t exactly relevant. Nonetheless, I was going to entitle it Whale Tail and then […]
Flying through the air with the greatest of ease.
February 21, 2012 by
Before we left on our trip, a friend of mine told me that her favourite part about any holiday is being on the plane, heading towards the destination, because at that point the trip is just beginning and all the fun is ahead of you. I agreed with the sentiment, but I can’t say the […]

How could we ask for more? I’ve been to paradise but I’ve never been to meeeeee. I may be a little delirious since I flew […]
It’s the least relevant day…of the year.
February 2, 2012 by
It’s Groundhog Day, or, as I like to call it, the least relevant day of the year if you live where I do. I don’t care what’s happening in the rest of the world – six more weeks of winter would be an early spring; we’ve been having unseasonably mild weather which makes me a […]
COME ON DOWN! You’re the next contestant…
January 31, 2012 by
It’s the last day of January, which feels very strange given that, with the exception of about ten days wherein I had that feeling of doom that I would never be warm again, it has been mild. The snow is almost melted in my backyard, which is odd. Perhaps the apocalypse is upon us? I […]
