I ‘pooed!

By in caitlin's crap

I admit it, after almost a year, I shampooed my hair tonight. I’d washed it with Dr. Bronner‘s peppermint soap a couple weeks ago, during the lice fiasco (which, for the record, I didn’t have and do not currently have) and my hair felt so light and clean that after a lot of thought, I’ve […]

The Royal

By in food, we have fun, work

I went to the Royal Winter Fair last Friday with my boss and my dad. It was the first time they’ve met and they got along really well. As always, my favourite part (since they didn’t have any poultry worth looking at) are the giant veggies. This beast is a 32lb beet. Imagine how much […]

Someone has a new best friend.

By in a good day, friends

Remember Puppers? He thinks Shannon is the business. He licked Shannon’s arms so much that I do believe that the tattoos have faded. What a sweet dog and what a lovely family Ashley has. Thank you times eleventy million for your hospitality (AND those steaks, WOW.)

Play/Knit list

By in crochet, love, making stuff is good

I filled my MP3 player with old mixed cds I made 10 years ago and it’s been making me happy. For example today, on my way to and from work here is what I heard: 1. ‘Homeboy’ by Adorable 2. ‘Girl You Know it’s True’ by Milli Vanilli 3.  ‘Money Can’t Buy Me Happiness’ by […]

‘Nother cool thing

By in daily grind

Remember I wrote about the Google ‘next’ button a while ago? And the ‘subscribe’ button? Amazon’s gone ahead and topped those. There’s an ‘add to wishlist’ button for your browser now. It automatically adds whatever piece of amazingness to your wishlist so it’s one stop shopping. Love it.

Busy

By in a good day

Well. Sort of busy. I still have my ears full of Stephen Fry reading Harry Potter to me. I think I love Stephen Fry. He’s amazing. Have you ever watched QI? I mean, maple slurple. Think about that. So I have been watching that too. And, believe it or not, knitting. I’ve finished lots of […]

Simple Pleasures

By in food, love, we have fun

Today I made cupcakes to celebrate Hallowe’en. Nothing like eating sweets on the way out the door to collect more sweets, right? I know Ari will share her bounty with us, she never likes ALL the candy she gets and she does love to be generous. I honestly can’t remember the last time I went […]

Early X-mas

By in a good day, caitlin's crap, love, we have fun

I was thinking about writing a little about karma, but seeing as I don’t really believe in it, I will tell you what I DO believe in. Love. From family and friends. So I got a message from my friend Michelle who works for MAC makeup (and is on maternity leave right now) asking me […]

Cottage cheese

By in a good day, Art!, Griping, haha

I took this on my way home from Dufferin Mall today. I had to squat down to take my camera out of my backpack plus I had my headphones in and an apple clamped in my teeth so naturally this is the perfect time to be harassed by a security guard. Now I know everyone […]

Costa Rica, Panama

By in we have fun

Our trip was so interesting, we did so many different things, met lots of interesting people, ate great food, it’s impossible to pick just one thing. And while I have to admit it’s nice to be home and no longer sharing a room with a 6 year old who rises with the sun, I would […]
