Yummy!

Tuesday, January 27th 2009

Good morning all,

Dinner last night was delish. It was some paté chinois ... which I gather is like shepherds pie but with mushrooms instead of tomatoes. When I was younger I lived in Montréal and my babysitter would make this for me all the time. Granted I had to tweak it a little to get as much fat out of there as possible. But it turned out really well I think (this was my first time making it!) And the SO really enjoyed it as well so all in all I would say it was a winner.

Quite a nice weekend!

Monday, January 26th 2009

Good morning!

I had an interesting weekend ... food was ... dicey but all in all it wasn't a total loss (Aside from Friday which I am just going to ignore and move on)

I got my hairs did!!! Yay!!! It was SO needed I think the last time I had my hair done was November of 07 ... so it was LONG overdue. I went to a new salon and the hair dresser I scored was REALLY nice. I'm very excited. I get free trims in the interim between cuts (as long as I don't wait for you know ... over a year)

For reals ... we were at a glorious 15* on Monday and today it is -18* with a wind-chill of up to -30* and blowing snow ARGH!!!

Boring.

Wednesday, January 21st 2009

Boo I feel really boring today, I've got like ... nothing fun to say.

Yesterday I did my shred ... wussed out on 2 of the exercises and had to do the easy way ... but that’s better than the first time I did it so I will call it a step up. Then I did some crazy hula hooping courtesy of the Wii fit. I can tell you it's been a LONG time since these bum muscles have hurt.

**Possible Biggest Loser spoiler**
Then I watched some biggest looser, I am really upset that "Jillian's Team&q...

Thoughtful Tuesday,

Tuesday, January 20th 2009

Good morning,

Well today is a pretty awesome day for those of you whom live in the States. It's a day that you get to welcome real positive change and a bright outlook into your country. Sorry even up here in the great white north it's on all the radio stations so I can only imagine what it's like down there.
I hope you all have a pleasant inauguration day!
Canada could surely use some positive changes with our leaders ... and hopefully this will spur us on as citizens to push for som...
