Olympic Torch Relay comes to Bradford, Ontario from Sarah Mulholland on Vimeo. This is really the first time I’ve operated the new camera to take video. Because Chris has been working on a series of video modules for a client, he’s become an over-night expert in Final Cut Pro, so he’s now my official video…
Olympic dispirit
Late on Wednesday night I got word that Hank was going to be running in the relay today, at 2:40 p.m. in Bradford, Ontario. That’s only about 45 minutes away from Toronto so I decided to take the day off so I could go see him. I was so excited about it, not only at…
Christmas shopping, done.
Anyway, it was great, and I bet it was a fabulous experience for her!
Wendy gets to carry the Olympic Torch!
I mentioned several weeks ago about our friends Hank and Wendy who are working the Olympic Torch Relay for over the course of four months, traveling all across Canada driving the Eco trucks, part of the sponsorship by RBC of the relay. We just heard that Wendy is being honoured by her team mates by…
Foraged from my front lawn
For months now I’ve been courting the idea of making quince jam or quince jelly from “the bush” on my front lawn. First, I have to explain “the bush”. As I think I’ve mentioned before, we’re living in the house that Chris’s great aunt once lived in, and along with her badly neglected flower beds,…
Fun times with DOF in video
I joined Vimeo and posted a silly little video Chris took with the new camera. It’s really of nothing. Just the cat on my lap, but I love the shallow depth of field you get with the 50mm lens. And I love how the sound of the TV in the background and the way it…
Magoo the terrible
Mr. Magoo got an early Christmas present from me this weekend while I was visiting at the farm. His mama was looking for a fun new hat for him and of course the viking hats are super cute and super popular, so I made one special for him that was a bit bigger than the…
Enjoying the break but feeling off my game
I don’t know what is up with me. I think I’m pretty chilled out — I’ve been enjoying a nice week off (aside from the two meetings I had to go to at work on Tuesday and Wednesday, which were for a very good reason). But I’ve also been incredibly lazy and unmotivated, which is…
Squishy Sharp Centre
Hello Interweb, I’m still here! I’ve just been kinda busy. Work is all consuming these days, but, there is light at the end of the tunnel! Yesterday I put in about 17 hours at the office, starting at 5:30 in the morning and going until about 10:30 at night, all in the name of OCAD….
Thai Red Curry Shrimp
This is one of my old standby dishes. It’s always so satisfying and makes for great leftovers. You can also make it with chicken, or even beef strips. Served up on Basmati rice, it’s a nice quick and easy meal. Thai Red Curry Shrimp (or Chicken) 1 tbsp of high temperature frying oil, such as…
