Chowhound

It's very windy today, over 100kms per hour. It would be garbage day, the streets around here were very messy this morning.

I noticed our local Walmart made 3 million dollars in support of the children's miracle network, $1 at a time, how amazing is that. Don't know over what period of time. The cashier (older Eastern European woman) complimented me on my 'complexion' today. 'Pretty' was the word she used. I told her she made my day. She did. I usually walk around dressed very casually and feeling old.

I have to check out this chowhound website, it's supposed to recommend good eats ('for those who live to eat').

I also read in today's paper about Downsview Park Merchant's Market which sounds a bit like a Florida Flea market with international fast food. It would be nice to check that out one day.

Went to an Academic meeting with L tonight at her school to discuss Grade 11 course selection. It was informative with questions and answers. She has a ski trip coming up in a few weeks, she'll likely snowshoe instead as skiing is not her thing. K is off to Quebec in early February on a school trip. The calendar is filling up fast.

My sister suggested I let my blog links open in a new window, and I've gone one step further to improve them, I think.
