I love food

Food - I love to buy it, I love to cook it, I love to eat it, I love to serve it. Melty, cheesy, salty, spicy, crunchy, savoury, beefy, fresh and fishy, still dripping with seawater. But not sweet. I don’t have a sweet tooth, thank goodness. I worry about my love affair with food.

The photo is of a girl’s night my daughter hosted this summer. I was invited. Those are pathetically small lobsters they sell here for $8.99 Cdn every June. They were very good, but I sure miss the East Coast for lobster.

Yarn, I love yarn… Uh-oh, here she goes again. Squishy, fragrant, feltable, soft, softer, hairy, shiny metallic, full of colour. Hey, I’m a poet and didn’t know it. OK you beatniks, click those fingers.

OK, I haven’t totally lost it. It is nerves talking before an MRI. I have a date this evening for a Friday night MRI, a plea bargain in the socialized medicine world. If you come in on a Friday night, we’ll get you in a couple of weeks early.

Look what arrived today! That is 14 pallets of grown up Legos for our retaining wall. Taking bets on how long this will take.

Have a good weekend and a fun Halloween. Bryant, the 14-yr-old, had to wear a costume to school yesterday. He went dressed up as a kissing booth. This is at the school that didn’t approve of the devil hat. He has fun stretching the limits.

An MRI, oh my. I don't like those either. A combination of too small space and loss of control (i.e. cannot leave when I want to) freaks me out every time. I hope it goes well for you.
Cheers!

Hope your MRI goes o.k.
You'll be going yarn shopping then ? !
It's all to do with being a sensual person, the food and the yarn passions.We're lucky to have such full lives and to be able to derive so much pleasure from these things.A lot of people have such empty lives,minds and imaginations.
