Excellent Boiled Potatoes with Dill & Cream

Asparagus with Lemon, Feta & Sundried Tomatoes

Catching UP....It stayed cold. And then went stupid.

And yes, that is Celcius. SO COLD. It hurt to breathe and it hurt your eyeballs.


Lookit this little chunker.

So pretty. SO cold.

What to do?!?!?


We went out walking. All bundled up.


It really was pretty.

Started with some new colourways for the shop!



Adding some cute buttons and fringe really updated these looks.

Versatile, and the denim colour goes with everything!
In the Shop!

Christmas Baking. In March. Whatever.

So I'm a bit behind.
Oh well.
It's MARCH Christmas baking.
So I love to bake. And I love to make messes. But I'm also the most impatient baker you'll ever meet.
I dont' usually mess around with squidgy details or make stuff super pretty or fancy.

THEN I started hanging out with (some of the most amazing women I've never met) this Facebook group of Sallys' Baking Addiction fans. I love that this group of total strangers comes together and hangs out and chats about baking. And SO supportive!! 

I recommend finding this group and hanging out...it's like having a group of sisters and moms and grandmas ready to help with pretty much any situation.
So there were some baking challenges to work on or gain new skills. Here's some photos...enjoy.
Ahem. Cuz it's not festive baking without the festive.


Royal Icing decorated sugar cookies!


So. Many. Cookies.

Gingerbread in progress. Watching "The Holiday". Because Jude Law.

This made me laugh really hard.


The trees.

Christmas Eve party spread!

And....more cookies!!!

First year making a Christmas tree gingerbread table centre!

It was fun. But a lot of work. Tasty.


The Bird.

It got cold.

And colder.

And then we went right into stupid cold.

Catching Up...again

It seems every time I turn around; life has zoomed into hyperdrive, and then it's 2 months (or more...eek) since my last post.

Here's some catching up! My life in photos.... mostly...December. Enjoy.

Went to get my hair cut.....I liked this.
Buuuuut I ended up with this. When you're an actor, you don't mess with your headshots.


My Flu Shot is all across Canada in Shopper's Drug Marts.

SUPER moon!

Projects galore.....

Tree was up!

NEW Christmas lights....Pink, of course!


It got really cold. And kept getting colder.

Tiger Woods!!! (not really)

The most fun at work...this is Judi!


Took the brother to Rainforest Cafe...he'd never been.

Hittin' up all the Targets as we cross border shopped!
