“Friends and Family in the News” Edition

Saskatchewan Naval Commander Helps Drug Bust Victoria Divita, only the fourth woman in history to command a Canadian Naval vessel, is from Indian Head. I grew up with Victoria (though I knew her as “Vickie”), she was in my sister’s grade, a couple years younger than me, and in fact, her older brother was best […]

Ten Things That Make Me Happy These Days

I’ve recently rediscovered hummus. God, that stuff is addictive! The local hard rock radio station playing German quasi-death metal on my drive back to work after lunch recently = Jason has a very productive afternoon! 😉 I’ve mentioned this before but getting to come home for lunch every day is beyond awesome. That’s partly because, […]

Friday Fun Link – Yes Please!

Today on Facebook, a friend asked if I’d seen this particular flavour of Hammond’s chocolate bars. I’d seen the regular kind (and had bought my mom and dad one as a gift when Sasha was born) but if I’d seen this kind, I don’t know if I’d ever eat another kind of chocolate bar again!

Inside Mark McMorris’ Technique

Saskatchewan’s Mark McMorris brought home Canada’s first Olympic medal, a bronze in the slope style competition. This is pretty amazing considering he broke a rib only a couple weeks ago at the Winter X Games (not to mention that he’s a kid from the flat Canadian prairie of course!) 😉 McMorris grew up in Regina. The closest […]
