Tea, a gateway drug

Since V had a wonderful time last month when we went for tea at the Chateau Laurier, I knew she’d jump at the chance to go to another tea. I didn’t have to wait long to be proven right – last Saturday the Stittsville Sparks, Brownies, Guides and Pathfinders held a ‘Queen’s Royal Tea‘ and [...]

My helpful guide to identifying plants

Today saw me spending a lot of time outside communing with the plants. Some of the plants were familiar to me, and some of them were not. The previous homeowners loved feeding the birds and the birds loved seeding the garden so there are a tonne of random plants springing up where the feeders used [

From the archives: My Daughter, My Pride and Joy

Nothing like an 18 day break to recharge the ole batteries! Okay, I’m totally lying, for whatever reason my brain is screaming and my fingers aren’t listening. In a desperate attempt to look for inspiration I decided to see what I’d been writing about on this day last year and the year before. This

Princesses in the castle!

Have five little princesses hanging about? Here’s Auntie Cole’s recipe for a fun Sunday afternoon: Start with one fancy-schmancy downtown hotel. (Some might even call it a castle).

I’m not dead, I’m taking pictures.

For about a week now a couple of the trees near the entrance to our community have been blooming. And every time I drive by them I make a mental note to head back with my camera to capture the blooms. And every day, for about a week, something always came up. Finally, on Saturday [...]

Any veterinary opthamologists out there?

My dude (the husky) is getting old. We found him in 2003 and they estimated that he was between 1.5 and 2 years at the time, making him 10 or 11 years old now. That’s getting up there for a larger breed, and we’ve recently noticed some troubling signs. He’s legs shake, he’s creaky (much [...]

A poll which may prove I’m crazy pt.2

Let’s just say you’re feeling particularly lazy one day at lunch, so when you get to home you decide not to take off your boots (this is Canada people, we always take our shoes off! Well, except when we don’t). As you get ready to return to work you realize that something you want to [...]

Oh you were looking for me…

At the volunteer appreciation breakfast at V’s school? Here, let me help. Scan right on past all those (oh my god so) young moms. Don’t bother wasting any of your searching on the ones with the perfect make-up and the wrinkle-free business attire. Sure, it’s easy to get distracted by their perfectly

I never would have imagined it.

(Inspired by Rebecca from Bit Of Momsense) When we moved from our much smaller house last year we were quite happy to have a family room off the kitchen, as well as a basement rec room and a bedroom or two for V to play in. (Hey distributing the mess makes it look like less, [...]
