On Saturday, I thought for sure that was signalling the end of the cold weather. +11C during the day. Nice. But when I went home that night it was -7C. That’s almost a 20 degree difference! now all the snow that was melted into puddles and slush is now ice coating the streets of my […]

R.I.P.

Fishy Fish died yesterday morning at the ripe old age of 2. He was very entertaining with his excitement at getting fed. He would wiggle against the glass when you waved at him and liked lying on the plants in his bowl. He spent his last day lying on some flower stems. He will be […]
Rascal Flatts

Were here performing at Rexall Place on Saturday. Adam and I arrived at the venue an hour early to secure good parking and avoid the crowds. We managed a sweet spot where we weren’t boxed in and got free glow sticks at the front doors! Jason Aldean was the opening act. He is pretty good, […]
Firefly Theatre Presents

Friday I had Adam over for dinner. Lovely cheese tortellini in tangy tomato sauce. I can’t take credit for it, boiled the sauce was from a can, but I did add my own spices and veggies to it. Afterwards, he surprised me with theatre tickets to a Firefly Theatre presentation called Fly by Night(s). as […]
American spelling gets me angry
by Bertha on 23. Feb, 2007 in About Me, Canada 2006
I’m reading this series of books by Patricia Cornwall. It’s the Kay Scarpetta series about a Medical Examiner and her cases. It’s pretty good. I discovered her in Australia. The only problem is that the current book I’m reading spells manequin the phonetic way (which I think is the American way) and it looks so […]
Family Day Celebrations

Adam, Shauna, Zousar and I all went to see a Family Day performance at the Windspear Centre. The free performance was put on by the Association. THis is an image of one of my favourite performances. The Equadorian group had the cutest little boy “dancing” (shuffling) and I loved his cute little outfit with the […]

Happy Chinese New Year!

This past Sunday was Chinese New Year. It’s the year of the pig. I took my friend Angela to a fancy expensive new year’s party at Cha for Tea restaurant where we watched a lion dance, had “live” band music with dancing, and ate a 10 course meal. I also dressed up in my “Cheung […]
Who is this M&M?
by Bertha on 14. Feb, 2007 in Canada 2006
This is everyday! Sneakers is everyday! And ice cream! who wouldn’t want ice cream everyday? This one is going for a drink after a concert. That’s what I think. She’s got high heels on!
Blog Comment Spam
by Bertha on 09. Feb, 2007 in Canada 2006
I am very greatful for this blog writer program because it also watches comments and prevents spam comments from getting onto my blog. My question is though, how are these spam comments helpful to spammers in any way? most of the comments I see just have one line of text. It’s sometimes a bunch of […]
