Senhorita Macaroni

When I was little, I went on a trip to Portugal to visit my grandparents, who were wintering in the Algarve. I got given a nickname over there, due to my general love of pasta: Senhorita Macaroni.

I’ve kept that taste for noodles into adulthood. And then I was taken to The Bite, during my stint on [...]

The Pender Island Fall Fair – Geeks Welcome

Amid all the poultry, rabbit, sheep, goat and lamb exhibits, tucked away from the preserves, flower arrangements and quilts, I discovered this prime specimen of geekitude at the Pender Island Fall Fair (a misnomer since it occurs nowhere near the equinox).

My favourite part of the fair is watching the kids use a real fire hose set [...]

Up!

… or half a stairway to heaven?

I tweeted the other day about having a VOC hangover, and below you can see why. A significant amount of elbow grease and oil fumes went into putting the finish onto these babies, our new staircase.

Evening The Score

Based on the tag cloud the cat’s been getting more air-time than the dog. So here, have a doggie pic. Grainy but cute.

Oh, Dear

This is my house. Right now. We are having the weird linseed oil wash removed from the fir beams using an environmentally-friendly glass-blasting process.

This ranks right up there among the “what the hell have we done?” life [...]

Oops!

Yes, those are blossoms, and I kid you not, I took these pictures an hour and a half ago outside my office.

I suppose if all the snow melts, we can always have the beach [...]

Sooper-sekrit Saturday

I’ve been tweeting for half the week about “Sooper-sekrit Saturday”. This event was secret because it wasn’t strictly legal.

We’re talking underground dining here. Underground [...]
