Saturday Snap – A Gift of Oranges

Sasha had permission to invite a friend over to watch a movie this afternoon and somehow that grew to five girls showing up today to watch movies, eat pizza, and hang out for a few hours.

But with vaccinations and boosters also being increasingly common, we’re all slowly returning to “normal” (whatever that is.)

Secular Sunday – A Rare Atheist Prayer

We’re in Edmonton on holidays. The downtown is like a war-zone due to all the construction. Through the mists of concrete dust in the air, you can see the beautiful Rogers Place. By all accounts, Rogers is the nirvana of NHL arenas. The Oilers are on a five-game winning streak after getting a new coach. […]

Health Food for Superb Owl?

Told you I saw some home fries in my future (and in terms of “healthy”, I’m sure one of those puff pastries has some green stuff in it!) 😉 No matter what you’re eating, enjoy the Superb Owl!
