No time for reasoned analysis again this year, I have too much to accomplish before settling down in front of the big game. I was initially leaning toward the Cardinals, on the theory that nobody expected them to beat the Steelers, which makes them a mortal lock to do so. On further reflection, however, it […] Spouse and I headed out today with Popeye in tow for a walk in the winter woods. There are a lot of pretty well-known birding areas not far from the borders of Juniorvania, perfect destinations for wintry perambulations. The F.W.R. Dickson Wilderness Area is a beautiful little plot of land that is the site of […] Credit me this much: tonight, I did the food preparation thing without a recipe. Yup, workin’ without a net. No don’t go getting too excited, it wasn’t anything terribly complicated. Tonight’s offering was tandoori chicken, which I made by lathering a pre-mixed tandoori paste (store bought) with some plain yoghurt (as per the directions on […] I meant to post about this right after Christmas, but I kept forgetting to take the necessary photograph.

It was an odd start to the day, because the delivery truck driver […] When we got home tonight, Spouse had plans to head out on a shopping excursion: with the cold weather upon us (and how), she had decreed that new boots and a particularly warm pair of “barn gloves” were needed for the nights she spends visiting Ralph. That plan went sideways though, shortly after we arrived […] A quick post today; I was back to work for the first time in three glorious weeks, and I have to admit that it only took about two hours of the chaos inherent in office life to get me pining nostalgically for my morning cup of tea in the living room with the cat purring […] We had a truly Canadian evening last night. It was snowing quite hard in the early evening, starting around 6:30 or so, and Spouse and I had earlier determined that we would be attending the hockey game between the St. George Dukes (a local team in the Southern Ontario Junior Hockey League) and the defending […] |
