Those of you who read this regularly know I’ve been a little spotty on the Monday Morning Love List lately – #41 is overdue. This is NOT because I’m not loving things (far from it!) but because I’ve been a busy chica and haven’t had the brain cells available to put it all together. Apologies. [...]

Affair With Autumn

That night was the turning-point in the season. We had gone to bed in summer, and we awoke in autumn; for summer passes into autumn in some imaginable point of time, like the turning of a leaf. ~ Henry David Thoreau (1817-1862)I love the turning of the season in Vancouver – there’s something about walking [...]

It’s talk like a pirate day today.
I kid you not. Truly.
Don’t believe me? Go here.
But here’s the thing…
Despite my early enjoyment of pirate portrayals in Tintin’s The Secret Of The Unicorn, Gilbert & Sullivan’s Pirates of Penzance, and movies such as Pirates of the Caribbean and Princess Bride (not the Pirate Movie though – that [...]

After the usual amount of over-discussion and analytics, the darling boy and I decided it was time to get cable again. He missed hockey. I had never had the opportunity to see George in action on his show at the CBC – at least not from the comfort of my own couch. Both of us [...]
A Love for New Beginnings

Once upon a time my parents decided that it would be a grand idea to buy a house in the suburbs and bring up their kids there. I highly doubt they checked in with me, but I suspect if they had I would have given them the same look had they suggested that they were [...]

Love – We had one day of semi-fall weather this weekend; enough to wash the streets of their summer grime and give the tourists a reason to check out some of the indoor attractions.
Love – That Sunday morning I photographed all of Lunchtruck’s design drawings. Now that that’s finally done I can start work on [...]
Scarlet Promises

It seemed somehow fitting that the first pre-planned fall knit shop trip dawned rainy and cool.
After months of working with mostly neutral yarns, I’ve been craving colour, something deep and rich and fun to work with. Enter this beautiful Alpaca and Silk mix yarn from Blue Sky Alpaca, which I picked up from the newest [...]

For the next while you may see some odd things happening on this blog – bear with me – today I switched over to Blogger Beta, changed my template and will probably tinker , tinker, tinker until I’m happy with the new layout.
My apologies for pulling out the obvious David Bowie reference.

I’m putting out a pre-emptive apology for the mess I’m about to create of this blog.
