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!

Saturday Snap – I See A Lot of Home Fries In My Future!

Maybe a year ago, a coworker hooked me up with a guy who sells 50 lb bags of misshapen potatoes.  And of course, when I picked up the first time, it turned out he’s a library patron I knew! In fact, after chatting with him during my most recent pickup, I even ended up sending […]

Saturday Snap – Life’s Too Short For Unsalted Butter

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 […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Get the Shot! (December 2009)

At a Christmas party one of Shea’s nursing colleagues hosted in 2009, one feature was pre-made alcohol shots in syringes. Little did we know how much “get the shot” would change in meaning a decade later!  ?

Friday Fun Link – Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Championships 2021

I can’t think of an event that defines America better – the introductions, the crowds, the focus on competition and over consumption (but I’m still going to tag this as “Sports”) 😉

A bunch […]

Throwback Thursday – #tbt – Christmas Sodas (December 2011)

Saturday Snap – Spud Drug Deal?

My coworker hooked me up with a guy selling discounted 50lb bags of oversized and misshapen potatoes (who, of course, turns out to be a regular at my library.) At any rate, pulling up at his house, I felt like I was getting in the middle of a shady drug deal – cars lining up, […]

Saturday Snap – Covid 19 Supper Club Returns To The Real World

There’s a small group of people I graduated high school with who live in Regina that we started going out for supper with a few times a year maybe 4-5 years ago? We had our last in-person supper before Covid hit at a local brewpub in February 2020 and though we transitioned to a private […]

Friday Fun Link – “Drinks in Calgary” Decision Tree

I could’ve used this when we lived in Calgary but honestly, this is all I needed to know: 1. Hop N Brew (right next door to where my office was – dangerous!) 2. Drum & Monkey (also down the street from my office – sat there for like ten hours from noon on to hold […]
