As you know, I have banned myself from buying shoes in 2010. And, as you also know, I have acquired only two pair of shoes during this time: one pair of running shoes (which were considered, right from the time I installed the ban, an exception because having properly functioning running shoes when training for […] →Read more
So yesterday was my (slightly belated) one year post-laser eye surgery #2 check up with my optometrist. It was also my annual eye exam, since it was time for that anyway.

After yesterday’s bread baking, I also made some vanilla extract. My sister’s been making her own vanilla extract for ages and I decided it was high time I tried it myself! And I have to say – it’s super duper easy! The hardest part was finding the vanilla beans! Seriously, all it takes is a […] →Read more
I had to do a bunch of stuff around the house today – since I’ve decided to do my hot yoga in the mornings before work, I need to be uber organized! – so I decided that since I was going to be home for a chunk of the day (in between morning yoga and […] →Read more
Beth can’t come to the blog right now because she’s in a sugar coma, having discovered a store in Surrey that sells vegetarian marshmallows. Let me repeat that: Beth found a store that sells freaking vegetarian freaking marsh- freaking -mallows!!

So my beloved Zaphod Beeblebrox the Car hit the 30,000 km mark this past week, which meant it was time for her second service appointment. For her first appointment, I took her to the dealership in Vancouver where I bought her, but this time I thought I’d take her to the Surrey location, what with […] →Read more
