2006

2006 is a year that just can’t end soon enough. For months now it has been apparent to me that 2006 was just not my year. The first thing that comes to mind is getting divorced – while definitely the right decision for me, deciding to end a marriage of almost a decade (not to […] →Read more

I’m Officially a Cliché

I’m going to spend my New Year’s Eve working as a coat check girl/hostess. In a bar. That’s Dr. Coat Check girl to you. →Read more

Christmas Booty

Being a good Pastafarian, it was important that I got some good Christmas booty (not booty). And good booty I did receive! First of all, Kalev & I had a wicked good dinner, the ingredients of which were purchased at Urban Fare in Yaletown, where Kalev informed the cashier that it was “our first Christmas […] →Read more

Why didn’t this site come out before I did my Christmas baking? I want to be eating the same Choco-Coco Squares as Mattias Ohlund! And for the record, I notice that Taylor’s Pyatt’s gf didn’t contribute any recipes. She’s no good for you Taylor!! →Read more

Send a Message to Canada’s Top Greenhouse Gas Polluters

The good people of Environmental Defence have a petition that I thought I’d pass along to you. From their petition: This is supposed to be a season of giving. But the kind of gifts the Top Ten Greenhouse Gas Emitters in Canada are giving us all are not only unwelcome – they’re changing the climate […] →Read more

Varia

Three blog postings in one day yesterday? That must mean (a) Beth has real work that she should be doing but isn’t, (b) Beth’s roommate has gone home for the holidays and there is no one here to listen to her various witty remarks, so she feels the need to blog. Also, it appears, at […] →Read more
