One thursday summer evening...


One thursday summer evening I was driving down a road to get to my house and a house struck my eye. All the houses on that street were dull colors and I am big fan of loud colors. This house was bright blue. It looked like the house I want when I buy a house... except in red because red is such an awesome color. Feel free to comment!

Acquired taste finally acquired


When I was a kid. I hated the way vegetables tasted. Now I love them. Only I year ago I was disgusted with the taste of olives, now I love them too (especially the garlic stuffed ones at Strathcona farmers market). A few years ago I disliked the way wine tasted. Everybody told me it was an acquired taste but I never really understood that. This fall I had a Spanish red wine at my aunts house in Montreal and I actually liked it. Recently I had an Argentinean wine that has been made for over 4 generations and I thought its taste was the next best thing besides skiing in waist deep fresh champagne canadian powder. I think it is now safe to say I have finally acquired a liking for the taste of wine. Here is a photo of that Argentinean wine. Enjoy!

Summer time!


Despite my love for snow and winter, there comes a point at the beginning of every spring season where I get excited about 20+ weather, late sunsets and (last but especially not least) fresh sneakers. Last summer I got these New Balance sneakers down in D.R. Enjoy.

rainy days




Winter, summer, spring or fall I love being outdoors but every once in a while. when its raining/wet snowing, I like to sleep in, write and watch the rain. In the last 2 weeks I have worked running like crazy. Today it is raining/wet snowing in Edmonton and I'm just chilling inside. Check out the pix taken from my apartment. You can just barely see them through the precipitation.
