Due to excessive face painting, we needed to go to my old stomping grounds, Malabar, to buy more white. I had a feeling it would be a hit, and I was right. Doug was nice enough to let Ari try on costumes. Sometimes I really miss working there, people love trying on crazy stuff and […]

Good news vs. Bad news
By Caitlin Jane in a good day, daily grind, food, we have funI had a great day. Seriously. The three of us went out for lunch today at a funny little weiner restaurant that was pretty good, apart from the sporadic-at best-service. While there, I saw a flier for a farmer’s market that is reasonably close to where we live and was happening today. SO, I rode […]

No boys allowed
By Caitlin Jane in a good day, we have funToday was girls only day. First, we made a bunch of stickers by cutting out pictures from tabloid magazines and sandwiching them between layers of clear sticky paper. They are now stuck all over the toy trunk. Then we had peanut butter sandwiches for lunch. Then we went to Melonheads and one of us had […]

For Ali
By Caitlin Jane in a good day, hahaI finally told him the joke last night and he wanted to be sure to remember it to tell Ari, who loved it too, but isn’t allowed to tell it at school as “we are not allowed to use bathroom words in school”.

Vacation
By Caitlin Jane in a good day, love, we have funAs you’ve already learned, Shannon and I (and a little person) went up North for the week. Other than the mosquitoes, it was a lovely holiday, although I realized by day two, that what we really needed was a nice, quiet cottage on a beach somewhere with lots of other kids near by and a […]

Crazy weekend, part 2

Crazy weekend, part 1
By Caitlin Jane in a good day, daily grindSeriously, I had the greatest weekend. On Saturday I went to Target with my mother and sister and spent $90. What did I get other than my favourite pharmaceuticals? New sheets ($12.48 for an entire king set, which is just…well, crazy), a wallet that I think is supposed to be a makeup bag, sandals and […]

Super supper time
By Caitlin Jane in a good day, foodWe ate lunch at a Middle Eastern restaurant and had veggie samosas that didn’t taste like any kind of samosa I am familiar with. Not bad, just different. So I was thinking about how much I love them (oh, and doubles, eat those some time and thank me for the recommendation) and how I had […]

Festivities!
By Caitlin Jane in a good day, babiesWe had a little picnic with friends yesterday in lovely High Park. Some people don’t get to eat outside very often and it’s a real treat. There was also a nature walk, playground races, petting zoo excitement (a wombat or something was stuck in the tree in the peacock’s cage) and ice cream. And cupcakes. […]
