CBC's Fifth Estate made a fabulous documentary called Sticks and Stones. You can watch the whole thing from the website. It's 42 minutes well spent.

(come on, you know you want to spend some quality time with Ann Coulter today...)

it's escalator safety week.

I'm actually writing out recipes on cards and putting them in a box for the first time. I got tired of having little pieces of paper all over the kitchen, and Chris provided me with a box and some cards.

Now I have to decide how to organize them. What sections would you make in a vegetarian recipe box?

The funniest thing I've seen in a while.

I was stirring my oatmeal with berries, thinking what a lovely shade of pink it was...then I decided to taste it and dripped it all down my white shirt. Yay!

I'm such an idiot for not thinking of this sooner. If you read this in the next half hour or so and want Neil to sign a copy of Anansi Boys for you, let me know!

I can't figure out the time difference, so I'm not sure when this should be posted to ensure that you'll read it on your actual birthday...but happy birthday nonetheless!

Now, come back to North America and I'll give you a present! *hugs*

My computer is currently not speaking to the internet, so I'll be semi-absent for a while. If anybody knows a trustworthy place or person who would fix my computer if I gave them money (and/or cookies) I'd love to know about them.
