    "always wear a helmet!" he told me

    “Always wear a helmet!” he told me. He’s five years old and just started riding a two-wheeler. A few days ago he learned how to turn!

    A helmet’s especially important when you get airtime like his big sister:

    I took the kids out for bike rides, ice cream, and a wander around the marina last night to stalk crustaceans. I’m getting lots of great portrait practice on the new camera!

    WOO-HOO!

    Saturday: wedding at Jericho Beach
    Sunday: Terry Fox Run

    Looks like a perfect weekend for a wedding and walking around Stanley Park to raise money for cancer research.

    Just a friendly reminder that it’s not too late to sponsor me! I’m very nearly to my goal!

    my fondue pot (from Liechtenstein) finally sees some action again

    On Tuesday, my fondue pot (from Liechtenstein) finally saw some action again after sitting unused and lonely in Eliza’s cupboard since Kristin moved to London and I moved away three and a half years ago. Now that our Swiss Miss is back in Vancouver for a visit and I’m here, too, we brought out the pot again for some serious cheese indulgence and nostalgie.

    ready for the fondue

    It’s a good thing none of us are lactose intolerant.

    cheese, please!

    I lapsed into a food coma directly after, and slept soundly on the hardwood floor until 4:30am!
