21 February 12

I was mildly freaking out about all the stuff I had to do this day, but I managed.

19 January 12

Jeff and I were both home sick but we somehow managed to go to Costco? Then soup and Game of Thrones and tea.

16 January 12

Taken at night, but to me the light looks like early morning.

10 January 12

Sunrise.

15 December 11

pinup.

11 December 11

While we were having breakfast, there were a bunch of birds using our garage roof gutter to take a bath. I was afraid I'd scare them away if I went out back, so I took these through the kitchen window which produced some interesting results.

20 November 11

Jeff and I stopped at New Brighton Park on our way to the grocery store. It was freezing cold, but beautiful.

31 January 11

It was inventory day, so I started work at 6:45am. Luckily everything went okay and I got to leave at 2:30. There was still lots of daylight! In the back garden I noticed a bunch of fascinating ice crystals, but ended up being more intrigued by how cool these zucchini vines looked.

27 January 11

I failed to take a photo on the 26th. Probably because I was too busy downtown giving away eight dozen cupcakes in less than fifteen minutes!
On this day I was walking home from work and saw a fantastic, brilliantly red sunset. Unfortunately iphones do not do such beauty justice... and sunsets I feel are one of those things that are always, always 1000x better in real life than in photos.

20 January 11

I stayed home from work with a cold and when I woke up it was snowing! After a little bit though the rain had washed most of it away. Later I vacuumed and made carrot-ginger soup.

11 January 11

It snowed a little. Only in the night time, though. By the morning it was mostly slush.

02 January 11

Jeff and I slept late and then went for lunch with Tony and his new lady friend, Joanne, at Bombay Bhel (seemingly the only restaurant in the Heights that was open). The food was delicious... Indian food is something I almost never crave or feel in the mood for, but once I start eating it it's so good. In the evening Jesse used my chili recipe to make dinner and we watched the hockey game.

01 January 11

First day of 2011. Nothing much happened, really... slept in, Jesse made pancakes, and after Jeff left for work I spent my evening watching trashy lesbian movies and eating candy.

29 December 10

I stayed home from work because of my wrist. In the evening Jeff and I braved the sub-zero temperatures and went to the Capilano Suspension Bridge to see it all lit up (my mom gave us free passes). We lasted less than an hour before I thought my feet might actually freeze and break off in little shards, so we left and warmed up with dinner at a pub.
A couple photos of the bridge can be viewed here.

It was a strangely warm day for late December and I walked to the grocery store wearing only a jean jacket and a scarf over this. Later I went to Malloreigh's for a Christmas baking exchange, where we all chatted over tea and delicious vegan goodies. She also gave me a gift: a zine she and Kaylie made of recipes of theirs, along with a little bag of nutritional yeast and a box of fenugreek leaves :)

18 December 10

After the hockey game, I met up with Iain and Steph and others for sushi and then theatre sports on Granville Island. Always a good time, and man do I love having Iain back in town!

17 December 10

Sarah hosted a Solstice party (a few days early) at our place. It was a fun time full of booze and food. I don't think any glasses even got broken, which usually happens at our parties.

12 December 10

Driving along I-5 in the fog, to Portland with Alice and my mom. We didn't stop for lunch and then we all felt too ill to eat much dinner.

11 December 10

It was my staff Christmas party at the Cascadia Hotel on Hornby, which was a surprisingly good time. I wasn't expecting to drink because I had no money and the bar was paid, but people kept giving me tickets for glasses of wine...
