I'm still around
Just spent the weekend in Vancouver with my husband. We ate and drank a lot! Friday was fantastic, and we walked the water in Yaletown, from David Lam Park to the Burrard St. Bridge. We ate dinner at Chili's a great Thai restaurant, reasonably priced, too ( Read more... ) -

Illness, Spring and Weird Dreams
I'm finally feeling better, after two weeks of a cold that developed into bronchitis. I was incredibly blocked, and had to lie on my back, just so I could breathe at night. It seemed as my lungs clear, my sinuses are getting worse. The other night I dreamed I was living in a house where all the toilets were constantly backed up. I don't think ( Read more... ) -
Hello, More Canadian Ridiculousness
The big brouhaha in Vancouver, over the theft of the 2010 Olympic flag, is bordering on ridiculous.
The 1600 dollar flag was stolen a couple days ago (Story), and there was some talk of setting up a 24 hour guard. Yes, this story was on equal footing with the story that a horrific torturer of women had just served a 20 year sentence, and had been ( Read more... ) -

Yeah, I liked Friday's entry, the one about the last truly summerwarm day before the air started carrying a cooler undercurrent, and ( Read more... ) -

I love Firefox
Something that has always bothered me about LJ is that I don't control user icons. So, sometimes I'll be browsing around a community, and some horrid thing will pop up. And it's usually animated ( Read more... ) -
Pho-pho-pho
I made a great Pho, last night. I'm sure it was anything but authentic, but it was certainly delicious. I had a recipe from a low fat cookbook, and my mom took a copy and completely rewrote it (she's talented like that). It had star anise, cinnamon, cloves, hot pepper and garlic as the main flavours for the broth (along with hoisin sauce, fish ( Read more... )
