It's been too long

I know it's been so long since I've last updated this little collection I've got going on. No excuse really – just life. But when I saw this today over at Little Garden, I thought it was was worth sharing.

Going Home, kind of

Some or most have you have probably already seen or heard about this as it's been all over the media. It's the new Arcade Fire online mini site/video called The Wilderness Downtown. If you haven't already checked it out I recommend you do - it will take you home.

I don't want to spoil it so I won't say anymore.

I hate to say the word

Snow. 

Winter. 

Freezing temperatures. 

I think this year I'm going to get myself some nice practical and pretty great looking winter boots to keep my little feetsies warm. Maybe something like these winter boots from L.L.Bean. 

Or something a little puffier like these found on endless.com

Fall in the Forest

How was your weekend darlings? 

Mine was lovely. Saturday afternoon J, Olive and I headed to Elk Island National Park for a mini hike. It felt so great to get out of the city. Plus the forest is so beautiful now that it's fall and things are starting to change colours. 

What was the highlight of your weekend? 

Doppelganger of a pal

As you already know I've been riding the bus (yesterday was a bad bus day, I had a mini fit when the people in the door wouldn't move. Firs I politely said 'excuse me' then finally, 'SOMEONE MOVE! please'. They moved.

Anyways, on the bus there's a man who reminds me very much of a pal who's currently living the life UK style in Scotland. This look-a-like fella is not quite as hip as my dear pal but he's got the same essence (at least from a far). It's weird when one person can remind you of someone else you know.

MIss you T.

Butter chicken dreams

Today for dinner I made J and I some butter chicken (translation: organic chicken with a store bought jar of sauce) with Naan (translation: store bought packaged version) and basmati rice. Oh it had so much promise. Unfortunately after all our mouth watering excitement it turned out to be a major dud. Nothing like the yummy indian food pictured. I hate when that happens.

Happy Friday!

Phew, it may have been a short week but I always find I do the same amount of work as I would if it were a regular 5 day work week. I think that just proves that I should take a long weekend every weekend and still be super productive. 

And now, we dance!
