A Window Show

Monica and I are really enjoying watching the birds through our livingroom window. It’s like a TV Reality show. Such drama! One of them will claim the bird feeder. Who will it be?

International Food Critic

I’m not really a food critic, just a food lover! If there’s anything to be critical of, it’s perhaps that I’m loving the food too much! But…. Monica is really rocking her recipe books lately. And…. since we can’t travel physically at this time, we will do so gastronomically 😀. Here’s where we went in winter ’21. We ended our trip on March 25th on the 44th anniversary of our first date at Mount Allison Univ. in Sackville. This time, to celebrate we went to France with Julia Child (and a Grand finale).

Irish, Italian, Asian B-Day

On March 17th, we celebrate Matt’s birthday. This year, #32! The four of us (Matt, Sarah, Monica and me) enjoyed a fantastic fusion of Italian/Asian at Delizioso restaurant in Saint John’s east end.

Birthday Boy

At 35, can a man feel like a man when his parents still call him their baby boy? Doesn’t matter… as long as he can feel the love. Happy Birthday, Ryan.

Comfort Food

Winter (2021) was about continued isolation from mainstream society. In our isolation, we found comfort in good food. Not so uncommon.

Certainly Sushi

It is the last weekend of January 2021 and the polar vortex has finally arrived to New Brunswick after a dry, mild, easy-walking start to the winter. Monica and I succumbed to the urge for some sushi from our fav (temporarily take out only), Ta-Ke Sushi on King Street. What a great Friday night! We’ll walk it off tomorrow.
