You may have noticed an entry in my blogroll for the last year called bentlily. Well, bentlily is a blog started by my super-talented boss, Sam, to help her be more present during her first year of motherhood. Now that 2011 has ended, it has turned into something that she wants to continue. And so, …
{Food carts!} As I mentioned, I went down to Portland for a few days to visit with a group of girlfriends who hadn't all been in the same room in many, many years. We had a wonderful time: eating, laughing, shopping and generally enjoying each other and the city. I'm dying to go back to …
As you can perhaps guess from the radio blogger silence the last week things have been busy! We moved last week and though it's taken us several days to locate all of the important things that are required to exist, we love the new place and are happily settling in. Above is a grainy/shaky sneak …
Today is my love's birthday. He's the kind of guy that a blog post just can't describe. He's my best friend, the best listener and I'm so lucky to spend my days with him. Happy birthday Nick!

Nick and I had the most magical weekend in Victoria. We realized that we've been there five times together, but this weekend was magnificent! We ate some great food, drank some delicious whiskey and generally loved the city. Victoria might be my new favourite getaway from Vancouver. It's just a hop-skip-a-bus-a-train-a-bus-a-ferry-and-a-bus away!
1. Nick. He's not small nor is the amount of joy he brings to my life but he has to be included in this week's post. I had a super busy week as you may have noticed from the blog radio silence and he kept me fed and sane all week. I'm a very lucky girl. 2. …
{Tacos on our balcony.} I'm a very lucky girl. I live with a man who makes me fish tacos for my birthday even though I already had birthday brunch and dinner with dear friends. A man who knows the importance of birthday dinner for two. Thanks to my love for birthday fish tacos. {Bacon-wrapped scallop …
