Good Books

I am in the middle of reading this trilogy, the first book being Poison Study. I loved the first book, and am almost done the second, Magic Study, and loving it as well. I am always in a better mood when I'm reading a good book!

New Hair

I pretty much never get my hair done, so I was really looking forward for this. It is kind of a big change for me, much blonder, but I like it.
Glad that I don't have a bald spot.

Lent

I gave up chocolate and desserts for lent, starting last Wednesday. This picture is from Tuesday night. I assure you I went through withdrawal.

Winter Wear

Taken about a month ago, but doesn't it just remind you of "The Christmas Story"?!

Winnipeg Rye

When we were in Winnipeg and Headingley over New Years we were at Grandma's house a lot (tangent: I took a bath in Grandma's awesome tub! It was great. I waited until it was pretty full and then hopped over the door and into it. Even though Dad warned me not to put the bubble bath in until the end, I was a little early with it and put it a little too much in. With the jets running there were just more and more bubbles, until probably the top 4 inches were bubbles. Anyone could have walked into the bathroom and I would have been completely covered!). While there I was thinking about how we used to have corned beef cut on Grandma's meat slicer with toasted rye bread for a delicious corn beef sandwich. So when I got back to Edmonton and was at the grocery store I went to buy some corn beef and rye bread to satisfy my craving. I grabbed one bag, and then saw another that was labeled 'Winnipeg Style'. Apparently Winnipeg rye is pretty famous. Either way, my corn beef sandwich was very satisfying!

Such a Lucky Girl I Am

So..last Friday night Chris and I were out with Macy at the grocery store (not our regular one, it was one closer to where we used to live around Whyte Ave). Anyway, we get our treats and are at the checkout. Our cashier asks us how we are and he is quite obviously and stereotypically gay. Then he totally hits on Chris and says that he is absolutely gorgeous! He asks me if I am married to my boyfriend and then says I am so lucky, he is just gorgeous. He also calls Chris 'honey' while processing the payment. Bahaha, it was hilarious! As we leave I cannot stop laughing. This has made my night, week, possibly year! Chris handled it all with stride and just smiled and nodded to the guy. He later told me that he has never even been hit on like that by a girl, let alone a dude. Haha. Anyways, enjoy this laugh at my gorgeous husband's expense!
