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. […]

Although a lot rarer than I remember as a kid, this year’s accumulated snowfall (and […]
In light of yesterday’s post where I happened to share the screenshot a portion of a life advice article that said we should eat salted butter as life is too short for unsalted, I thought I’d post a pic I happened to snap at Safeway recently. Saying “life is too short for unsalted butter” may […]
