ronnie and the red caps

finally went to relish last night..i got the "rene simard"...because i had to. (basically poutine on a burger...i had it on a portobello mushroom cap though). with sweet potato fries. necessary? totally.

when we came out there was a double rainbow ooooooohh wwwwwowwweeeee ahhhhhhhhh.



im going back to blonde. it looks like this now.

dr seuss?





i need to admit i have taken all the life out of these little guys that i can.

i took up smoking

i made beer-cheddar soup and it was fucking amazing.


sauteed some onions and celery and diced potatoes..basically made a roux in that (butter, flour, milk)...added more milk, chicken stock and a bottle of innis and gunn...a fuck ton of balderson old old white cheddar...some paprika and fresh thyme on top!

CATTALK

conversation with a cat:

"im going to go make some soup now. do you wish you could make yourself soup? probably not. i dont wish i killed birds. i do eat them though. maybe you would like some soup?"

(chicken broth with rice, fresh green beans from hi berry farm, corn, fresh parsley from the gaaaahden, grated carrot...ca c'est tout!)

story about a cat:
a lady came to my door with a flyer reading, "have you lost your cat?" WITH A PICTURE OF LEO ON IT. NO I HAVE NOT LOST MY CAT. HE GOES OUTSIDE. he was held hostage in an office building about HALF A BLOCK AWAY FROM HIS HOME.
i wanted to tell her to just let him out and he'd find his way back...but i didnt want to be judged as a 'bad mother'. ?!?!?!. i went to the office and he was waiting at the door. i opened it and he obediently followed me home. walked around the corner and down the street like a right coupla freaks. we didnt make it home without incident though. he got off track at one point, deeking (spelling? you know? like in hockey?) into the parking garage...i followed him in...and up and down (4 flights of) stairs...resulting in tell-tale muddy cat prints up and down my arms:



brat.

honeybear

it's obviously been waytoofuckinghot to cook lately so i've been eating salad for dinner for forever. yaaaaawn. to keep from not wanting to kill myself i like to cut everything differently and have lots of colours!! magical rainbow happy world!

it tricks me into thinking 'wow what an interesting, exciting NEW DISH im eating'. (no it doesnt).

also, BOLD flavours like pickled beets, old white cheddar and radishes. im going to continue sounding like a prick and say how amazing fresh, summer radishes are!!!!! no comparison to the dry ones in ziploc bags available in the 'fresh produce' section of your local grocer during the winter months.

these little babies actually had a kick to them and were juicy. oh, radish-talk isnt interesting to you? i hate you.

in not-at-all-related-news i want to go back blonde-ish. time for another chronological hair post! im sure i've used these a zillion times over. BUT. oh well. i hate pictures.
now: (literally!)

dream?:

mostly likely to happen:


i love you bye!

strange days



smoked meat bbq fun time. i threw up less than an hour after eating. yay!



just because it's called a salad doesnt mean it's healthy, boners!

i picked these flowers and lavendererers from my mom's garden and made myself a bouquet. then i cried a lot and now im eating frozen mango ok?
