the summer of picking Kaylie up from city after city 22 Aug 2013 | 11:02 am

the case of the mystery squash 19 Aug 2013 | 09:21 pm
Last year I harvested a single pumpkin. One. We technically had two that made it past the size of a golf ball, but one grew on the other side of the fence and got stolen. I harvested the seeds, dried...
“We’re moving to BC” 15 Aug 2013 | 11:54 am
That is what Kaylie texted me the other day. She’s spent the past three weeks traveling around BC—the lower mainland, the Island, the Okanagan—just her and my mom. It’s like her dream come true. She’s...
I aim to misbehave 13 Aug 2013 | 11:28 am

Monday was a holiday here in Canada. I don’t think there is anything I love more than holiday Mondays. I don’t feel dread creeping in on Sunday evening, and who doesn’t like a three-day weekend? I mea...

Noah took Liliana raspberry picking the other day and came home with two big ice cream pails full of raspberries. We’ve eaten loads of them, but Noah requested I also make something with them, maybe j...
What the f*** is a fandom? 2 Aug 2013 | 09:09 am
Bethany and I set out bright and early for Oregon on Tuesday, the 25th of June, hoping to drive most of our 16-hour drive that day. I’d never driven in the States before, but somehow Bethany put her l...
head above water 31 Jul 2013 | 11:17 am
I’m one of those people who, when they have way too much to do, gets overwhelmed and ends up doing absolutely nothing. I make giant lists of things I need to do, and then I do none of them. Instead, I...
