My Week So Far…

Easter Weekend 2012
Picture heavy post. Not much to say, just feeling very blessed after a wonderful weekend on the Sunshine Coast.
A Beautiful Woman
Has anybody read this article by Samantha Brick? In it Brick details the difficulties of being too beautiful. Brick is 41, an English woman living in France with her French husband, and, apparently, accomplished in her career. Yes, the article includes pictures of her. She says that frequently men buy her drinks, help her to… Continue reading A Beautiful Woman
Thrifting Adventures (American Edition)
I sort of forgot that I had made mention in a previous post that I would share some of our thrift store discoveries made while in Washington. Peter and I are avid thrift shoppers - we can't get enough of the places. It goes along nicely with the fact that we're newish university graduates and… Continue reading Thrifting Adventures (American Edition)
A Botanical Adventure through the Pacific Northwest
Okay, that headline is a little misleading. I like the word botanical though. Last week Peter and I got to spend three days and two nights a little south of the border...the state of Washington! The weather was gorgeous, we had some excellent thrift store experiences, and I took a lot of pictures. We spent… Continue reading A Botanical Adventure through the Pacific Northwest
Book Review – The Prodigal God by Timothy Keller
I keep a list, at the back of my journal, of books I want to read. I don’t always stick to it when I visit the library or go to a bookstore, but it helps me remember titles I think sound interesting. If someone recommends a book to me that I think I would want… Continue reading Book Review – The Prodigal God by Timothy Keller
Looking Cool on TV
Not feeling that well last night, I snuggled into bed, in my pajamas, with Netflix, looking for something to watch. I flicked through the titles for a while - wanting something that wouldn't require a lot of thought, elicit a lot of emotion, but wouldn't be too incredibly stupid. Do any of you have good… Continue reading Looking Cool on TV
The Bachelor Finale
Our journey is finally at an end. I, for one, am happy to be finished watching Ben and his hair. Did you know this was "the most controversial finale in Bachelor history"? The final days find us still in Switzerland, in Zermatt, near the Matterhorn (I love that ride at Disneyland). Once again, Switzerland is… Continue reading The Bachelor Finale
Happy Things
It's Monday and it's grey/rainy outside but I'm in a good mood for some reason. My theory is it's the extra hour of light yesterday. I have a confession: I think daylight savings rocks. In the fall we get an extra hour of sleep and in the spring we get more daytime. I like both… Continue reading Happy Things
A Snowy, March Adventure
It's another cloudy, dreary day in the Fraser Valley today and my heart is aching for cherry blossoms. I'm looking forward to the weekend and getting to see some friends, as well as daylight savings coming. (Losing the hour of sleep is a small price to pay for longer daylight hours, I think.) On Wednesday… Continue reading A Snowy, March Adventure
