Snuggie for dogs!?

Seriously? Oh. My. God. How ridiculous is this?!

What have I gotten myself into?

Yeah, I know, she’s super cute. She’s friggin’ adorable. She’s smart as a whip. Hilarious to watch. But she’s also a bit of a nightmare at times. A nightmare I was so not prepared for. Trust me, I love this creature, most of the time (kidding, kidding). But I am having a hard time of…

Diamond in the rough: the humble potato

I don’t know about you but I adore potatoes. I love them fried, mashed, baked, perogied, gnoccied, boiled, scalloped, chipped… it’s virtually impossible to screw up a potato. There couldn’t be an easier food to cook in the whole world. That said, I’ve never been able to keep which ones are waxy and which ones…

Qiviuk! Qiviuk!

Have I mentioned what a fabulous, incredible, loving and supportive boy I have in my life? So supportive he buys me Qiviuk, not once in my life, but TWICE? This was my prezzie that Chris brought back from his ski trip out to Lake Louise, which from the photos is absolutely friggin’ gorgeous and I…

Super pup

I forgot! My friend Leanne had her camera and took some really cute shots of Luna and Lola (in the background above) at the fabulous Stratford Dog Park. I just love the flying ears in this shot. Thanks Leanne!

As I bite my nails and watch team USA outscore us…

I need to do something to distract me from the terrible officiating of this USA vs. Canada hockey game and the screaming sinus headache that’s been plaguing me all day. I don’t have a lot of great photos or a lot of great news… I went to the farm this weekend with my pup, all…

Big weekend at the cottage

Chris and I took Friday off so that we could do up a big Family Day / Valentine’s Day weekend at the cottage. It’s the first time we’ve been able to get there this winter, and of course this time we had the added challenge of taking Luna on her first big weekend road trip….

Custom canning labels

I meant to post about these back in November, when my colleague at work, graphic designer Matt Webb designed them for me. I paid him in pickles. He used my own photography as the background and I had him make two sizes, one to fit the standard-sized jars and the other to fit the wide…

Luna, in moving pictures

I’ve finally found a bit of timeĀ  to figure out this newfangled video thang we have called the Canon EOS 7D, particularly to investigate if I could deal with the 7D’s super huge HD video on my own Mac (Chris has Final Cut on his machine and has invested a lot of time learning how…

The Oatmeal Hat

Remember that luscious yarn I mentioned last week? I bought this yarn after Adria requested a hat to match a scarf she ordered from Organic Lifestyle. Even though Adria’s birthday isn’t until Valentine’s Day, I finished the hat on Monday night, so I took it over with me to her house on Tuesday since we…
