It’s become a bit of a family tradition to take the kid (and now “kids”) to a small parking lot fair that sets up every June at the Northgate Mall, close to our house, instead of the bigger, busier, more expensive Queen City Ex later in the summer. Here’s a pic from when Pace was […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – My Only Ontario Vote (November 2006) #ElectionDay #OntarioVotes2018 #onpooli
With the Ontario provincial election happening today, I’m reminded of the time I unexpectedly got to vote in that province. It was while I was at Western completing my Master’s of Library Science degree and it happened during a federal byelection in London North-Centre which featured Elizabeth May parachuting in to try to win the […]
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Smile? (July 2014)
For a brief period of time, I loved the devil face Sasha would make when you told her to smile! đ
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – On National Caesar Day, Is This The Best Wedding Ever? (Summer 2017, Somewhere in Ontario)
Like most good Canadians, I enjoy a good caesar. And since it’s National Caesar Day, I’m going to break from Throwback Thursday tradition and instead of posting one of my own pictures of me drinking a caesar or making a caesar or looking lovingly at a caesar on a restaurant table, I wanted to post an awesome […]
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – SLA Conference Bonfire (May 2017) #CFLAFCAB2018

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – And Sometimes We Wear Gloves (June 2012)
I sometimes joke “And sometimes people ever borrow books!” when I think about all the things we have to do as librarians that have nothing to do with people taking out books and then returning the books so that others may enjoy them next. I’m not even going to discuss why someone would have to […]
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – #JerseysForHumboldt (February 2009) #HumboldtStrong #JerseyDay
Today, I wore the same jersey today that I’ve worn for years but for a less happy reason than skating with my son nearly a decade ago…
Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Farewell Lang’s (and a Funny Sriracha Story) #yqr
Very sad to hear that Lang’s Vietnamese restaurant burned down in an early morning fire yesterday. Along with Bushwakkers and Copper Kettle, Lang’s was one of my three “go to” Regina locations that weren’t just restaurants but local institutions. Way back in 2007, I wrote this about Lang’s in a post about my 10 favourite Regina restaurants: […]
