Checking out for two weeks
It’s been kind of a lazy summer for me on the blog. Mostly because the rest of my life has been so busy. But I do promise to pick things back up…after vacation! That’s right, I’m going to Amsterdam and Bruges for two weeks. I’ve got at least one guest post lined up for while [...]
Growing up is hard to do
In actual fact, I’ve long considered myself a bona fide adult. However, for the past few days I’ve been in Toronto for business while also visiting family and I was reminded of how perceptions vary depending on the eyes of the beholder. For instance, my parents dropped me off at the swanky Intercontinental Hotel after [...]
Seasonal symphony of sounds
[Here in Halifax and on the East Coast we're in the thick of winter with snow that's here to stay for a while. Next up is a blogger who's no stranger to this site. He interviewed me on Haligonia last year and has the distinction of writing the first East Coast Guest Post a year [...]
2009: A year in review
We’re a few days into 2010 already but I thought I’d post about some of the highlights of 2009 in my online world. It was a pretty busy year. Cokebaby and I travelled to the South of France for our 10 year wedding anniversary (today marks year 11)! We took a trip with his family in [...]
2010: Change is gonna come
It’s that time of year again when people around the world start thinking about setting goals and trying to alter their lives for the better. I’m not one for new year’s resolutions. That being said, I hope to accomplish some big things in 2010. Why this year? Call me superstitious but it’s my year. No, [...]
This is not a cop out post
I’m sick. But I found something on the internet to distract you with get you in the mood for the holiday season. What’s better than opening presents on Christmas day? Watching a dachshund open his Christmas stocking.
Daydream believer
Has anyone else been having trouble sleeping lately? I don’t know if it’s the weather, the time change or what but I feel like I’ve been on auto-pilot this past week due to lack of z’s. As a result, random thoughts have come to into my head. Sort of like the following: AliasGrace: I think [...]
Where in the world is AliasGrace?
Miss me? Yeah, I know I was supposed to post here a couple more times last week. No, I didn’t think my post about pickled beets was full of so much awesomeness that it would keep you entertained for a week. So, what’s up? The long and the short of it: life got busy. I [...]
On being good enough, smart enough, and doggone it, likeable
Since starting this blog on New Year’s day of this year, more people are coming out of the woodwork to leave comments here or through other social media channels. I just wanted to take a moment to thank you all. I’ve been having lots of fun and I hope you have also. It’s even been [...]
Hello [City]
From July 7-21 I’ll be on the Emerald Isle, sipping pints of Guinness and stuffing my face with boxties (that doesn’t sound as dirty as it really is). While away I’m going to run a very special series of East Coast Guest Posts and am inviting you to write an open letter to your city. [...]
