Food, Photography & Fun
Apparently I go into withdrawal if I don’t take photos regularly. I hadn’t touched my camera since the wedding almost nine days ago and I was getting a little sad and loopy. It really is the best therapy. So today Mitzi was my subject again because no one else was around. This feather on a …
I’ve always wanted to visit the Maritimes but it just never happened till now. I can finally add New Brunswick to my cartwheeling map. Definitely going back for PEI, Nova Scotia and Newfoundland… but I might end up in NB a few more times first 🙂
I know for sure that I want to do photography with people and/or animals. Landscapes, nature that doesn’t move, inanimate objects and buildings just don’t capture my fancy that much. So just to start getting a handle on how to use the camera, it made the most sense to start with my dear Rumble and …
Once upon a time when organic, free-thinking humans were banned from places like concert halls, they made their own concerts in their own halls… Sometimes those halls looked more like fields in the middle of nowhere. After almost two years of no events to practice for, I suddenly had the opportunity to accompany the infamous …
I’ve been working as a Virtual Assistant for Dawn from The Minimal Mom since April 2020. She is one of the kindest and most generous humans I know, and always sends me a package for Christmas and birthdays with thoughtful gifts. But since she’s a minimalist, and gifts are not her love language, I don’t …
You know those people who do wildly ambitious things like biking or running or walking across the country? Why doesn’t someone cartwheel across the country…. somebody like me?!? Like seriously, that would be crazy fun! Except for the fact that half the trip would be upside down and I’d probably get a concussion from my …
Although my house has a decent amount of floor space for a cat to run around, I soon realized after becoming a two-cat home that we really needed more vertical space for climbing! I don’t particularly enjoy doing extensive research for bigger purchases. I just want someone to tell me what to buy and be …
Back in May 2020, it seemed like all the musicians would couldn’t play at concerts anymore were performing online, so I wanted to record something too, just for fun. The only trouble is I’m an accompanist now and haven’t performed or practiced solo repertoire for well over a decade. So I pulled out the old …
I’ve always been a bit nuts about cats. I had MANY cats growing up (along with birds, fish, a rabbit and a raccoon!). I went through a phase where I managed to make every school project cat-related. And for my 12th birthday, almost everything on my wish list was kitty-something-or-other. Just a wee tad obsessed!?? …
Way back when I was a volunteer, looking after kids in Alberta, part of the daily routine was singing time. Which means I had earworms constantly. After several months of Father Abraham being ever-present in my brain, I sat down one day and wrote this entire arrangement in one day. It just sorta came out. …
