Finally, the ickiest episode of The Bachelor. The one where they travel to a foreign country and show their ignorance of that country's customs. Oh, wait, no, I mean the episode with the "fantasy suites" where Chris Harrison sets up a weird situation. Sean arrives in Thailand and tells us, "It looks like something out… Continue reading Bachelor Sean – Episode 9

Homesite Creek Hike
On Saturday morning Peter and I explored the Homesite Creek trails. This looping hike is just a few minutes up the highway from where we live. You can't really complain about the rain when it means you get to live in the middle of such green lushness. A fallen tree seems to have diverted the… Continue reading Homesite Creek Hike
Views From The Deck
Not to keep harping on my awesome view but...we have a pretty killer view. The fun part though is that it's different at every hour of the day. The tide changes, as tides do. It swirls in and out around that rock in the centre. To the right of where the above picture is, a… Continue reading Views From The Deck
Thoughts on the last 3 Bachelor episodes
A week and a bit without internet somehow ended up meaning I missed three episodes of The Bachelor. It was somewhat exhausting to catch up but obviously I can't miss a moment of Sean's quest to find true love! (Yeah, I definitely had it playing in the background while I did other stuff, though I… Continue reading Thoughts on the last 3 Bachelor episodes
Happy Discount Chocolate Day!
Hope you all got to do precisely what you wanted on Valentine's Day! Whether that was a romantic dinner with a special someone or eating cheap chocolate while watching The Bachelor. This is what I got on Valentine's Day: Rather than flowers, Peter decided to get me "a bouquet of snacks". The man knows I… Continue reading Happy Discount Chocolate Day!
Our New Place
As mentioned, Peter and I have moved! We are now living in a converted boathouse, about 20 minutes outside of Sechelt (maybe closer, maybe further, depending on who you're driving behind on the highway!) For the past seven months most of our stuff has been in storage so it's been a fun couple of weeks… Continue reading Our New Place
Chinese New Year in Halfmoon Bay
Celebrating the new year of my Mother Land! I'm a complete Chinese food snob, which means I love it but I never cook it. I know what real Chinese food should taste like and I can't match up to my own expectations. But Chinese New Year demands Chinese food. This was my entirely-unauthentic approximation. The… Continue reading Chinese New Year in Halfmoon Bay
Still Kicking
I haven't fallen off the face of the Earth, despite my lack of posts lately. I have, however, moved! Internet should be hooked up this weekend. In the meantime, enjoy this picture of the view from my living room! Yep, so insanely blessed! (Also, I have not yet watched the most recent episode of The… Continue reading Still Kicking
The Bachelor Sean – Episode 4: Facts and Quotes
"It seems like everything's going very, very well." - Chris Harrison, who must have just gotten the recap from an intern somewhere. Fact: Sean's closet is not that tidy. I bet AshLee the Professional Organizer could help him with that. "I want to take it to the next level and then the next level and… Continue reading The Bachelor Sean – Episode 4: Facts and Quotes
Bachelor Sean – Episode 3
"I had no idea I would have feelings for girls this early." - Sean Yeah, yeah, you're so surprised. It is weird to me that he would have feelings at all for women he's barely spent an hour with, but the lead says this every season. You'd think they'd stop being surprised. "This could totally… Continue reading Bachelor Sean – Episode 3
