Zig to the zag

By in Art!, making stuff is good

This took way less time and agony than usual. I don’t know if it’s because (most of) the fabrics I used were decent quality and all the same weight or if it was because I figured it out all on my own. I won’t go so far as to say I designed it, haha, that […]

A new student at Hogwarts?

By in a good day, haha

I got misdirected emails a long time ago, people who just guessed at their friend’s email address and wound up with me. I always tried to be polite and redirect them-or at least tell them to try something different. I got another one the other day and felt playful. Here is what I originally got […]

CNE too

By in a good day, fucking weird man, seriously?

Shannon already blogged about our day and I am completely distracted by what must be the world’s sorest feet, but I did think I needed to add my own 2 cents: Poor old Michael Jackson. Even a year after his death they haven’t found his nose.

A quilting I will go

By in a good day, Art!, making stuff is good

Just when you (and I) thought I had given up on quilting completely, I went ahead and finished one quilt, made another and started a third. Go figure. The first one was for Saira and Michael’s baby, Kiran. Yes, I’d made her a sweater too and given the quilt over at the baby shower, but […]

By in a good day, work

Stumbled upon on tumblr,  and because  I haven’t updated in a while, here’s what I look like right now, today: I had a long day: worked out at the gym until I thought I broke something inside, subway to Yonge and Bloor and then I walked home. It’s about 6km if I include all the […]

Lakeside Park, so many memories

By in a good day, we have fun

Anyone that grew up in the Niagara Region has spent time at Lakeside Park in Port Dalhousie. Even Neil Peart, a local hero, wrote a song about it. The wonderful merry-go-round is still there and it still only costs five cents a ride. A good deal for kids of all ages. There are more than […]

Caitlin and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day.

By in Griping, seriously?

It’s actually already come to an end, but the badness started about 24 hours ago and it’s all George Lucas’ fault. Or Spielberg’s.  Let me explain: I’ve been very much addicted to the Lego Indiana Jones game for DS. I play it a lot because, frankly, it’s crazy fun. And Ari is playing it too […]

New favourite

By in food, friends, seriously?

Pop. So it’s not the most exciting blog post? I can only find this at one store in all of Toronto, and believe me, I’ve been to ALL the stores here. All of them. Well, most of them. Can’t you just taste it right now? So delicious. So full of artificial everything. Yummmm. Ok, and […]

Boosting the Blue Jays

By in a good day, seriously?, we have fun

I went to another ball game last night, Blue Jays vs. Cleveland Indians. We got great seats because we went with a friend who’s in a wheelchair: disabled seating’s quite fantastic, actually, you’re on the floor right behind the 100′s and they give you folding chairs, so there’s tons of legroom, you can stand up […]

Exciting give away time!

By in we have fun

Shannon ordered the three shirt surprise pack from teefury and liked only 2 of them. This is where I come in. Rather than let shirt #3 rot on the couch, I thought I could mail it to a deserving recipient. This is a Lost shirt, a men’s size XL, it’s pretty big. This is the […]
