CBC Entertainment - Band plug

My cousin's band just made it to the front page of the CBC website. Congratulations! The CBC is a quality distinguisher of great taste. http://www.cbc.ca/ The band's name is Shapes and Sizes and they do have quite catchy songs.
Congratulations again!

Now waiting for hoofbeats on the roof

I have started and finished my christmas present shopping, wrapping and mailing. I think I did it in record time - starting on Saturday and finishing this afternoon. I was surprised at my speed and my poor wrapping job.
Oh well - at least I can enjoy some eggnog or mulled wine.... if I honestly enjoyed either of those things....

Now time to add a bit of christmas cheer to the house. I was thinking if there was only a pottery barn and all its commercialism nearby: I would start by creating ambience into my home with this:

I have not brought my specs with me

I got new glasses! I am very excited about my librarian looking specs. I was unable to find any pictures, but happy that I might be willing to wear the glasses two days a week (I need to slowly re-introduce myself to glasses - I despise wearing them once they're on my face). I once forgot to bring an extra pair of contacts, break the contacts I was wearing, and still wouldn't wear my glasses. I also couldn't find them. I figure this way - at least I'll wear them in that desperate situation.
I'll post a pic of me wearing them in hopefully less than 7 days.

Chip Wagon Absence

After a week hiatus - I'm back. Getting into my daily routine of food, work, food and wishing for my gym membership.
On a completely opposite note of the gym membership, I have noticed no chip wagons in London. You know, the ones in Ottawa that sell massive sausages you can never finish, poutine and have competitions in papers about the best local wagon.
Anyway, people thought I was crazy thinking about chip wagons. They are addicted to Pret or our subsidized cafeteria where the most unhealthy thing they sell is raisin scones or the occasional small bag of wine gums. It has inspired me to be a healthy eater - mainly because there is no other choice.Probably the best choice of all.

But I'll still miss the chip wagon sausages - even if it was just for the tempting smell.
