I was harshly woken up this morning by a loud beeping noise. I thought it was the house alarm, so I ran to check that. Then M tells me it's the smoke alarm, he had put a bagel back into the toaster as it wasn't dark enough and then it burned and smoked. So he just waved a cushion under the alarm, and that usually works. My heart was still pounding, however and my legs felt weak.
Last night, I caught an episode of The Wild Gourmets on Food TV. It's a lovely show, but this week they decided to hunt grey squirrel for a meal. I had to look away as they held the dead animal, skinned and prepared it.
It's a gorgeous, sunny day, another mild one near the freezing mark. On Friday, I was talking to a 'friend of a friend' and he mentioned that while the weather in Vancouver (western Canada) is mild in the winter, his experience is that you don't see the sun for a good six months and that can be depressing. He did say that they do have the most beautiful spring and summer seasons.

I love the idea of any time in Vancouver, personally. i'd take the rain any day!
Yeap, done that with the bagel before.
Oh I have a gf that is living with a guy who eats all kinds of "road-kill" so one night I was talking to her and she told me they were having squirrel for dinner. I grossed me out then and hearing it now brings back that same ewwww... :o)
Mmm, interesting that you like the rain.
Mom, 'road-kill'...hahaha.
