My boy and I
Beware - cute pictures of a certain kid are abundant on this account. Mostly for the grandparents, who are across the country and don't get to see him very often.
There are, however, pictures of cats, food, vacation pictures and stupid pictures of random things.
I'm a mom full time, a part time cook, a part time (but not enough time) baker, a part time (but not nearly enough time) photographer and a part time self-confessed smart ass. It keeps things fun and interesting.
Some things about me (always being updated)...
Likes
- Food - cooking it, eating it, reading about it, studying it, taking pictures of it, cleaning up the dishes after it.....well, maybe not that
- Anything Dutch (since I am part Dutch)
- Anything Canadian (there, that answers the question of what the other part is)
- Kitty cats
- Running
- Beer (especially any beer not made by the Coors company)
- Books
- Cross stitching
- Sports, especially hockey (I'm a Canuck, after all). And yes, I'm a Toronto Maple Leafs fan.
- Cookbooks. You can't have too many. Well, maybe you can. (almost)
- People with a sense of humor
- Traveling (but not lately, with the new stupid travel restrictions)
- Pepperidge Farm Goldfish crackers. Especially the Jalapeno Cheddar flavor. Damn, they're addicting.
- Snorkeling in warm, jellyfish-free water
- Hockey fights
- Techno music
- Good donuts. I miss the old made-at-the-store-from-scratch ones at Tim Hortons (of course, I'm at least 1000 miles from the nearest Timmys now...[sigh]). I am on a quest for the perfect chocolate cake donut. Upon finding it, my life will be complete.
- Race car crashes
Dislikes
- People who don't have a sense of humor (and want to make sure that no one else has one either)
- Assholes
- Lima beans
- Country music
- Fanatical fundamentalist Christians
- Ignorance
- Coconut
- Crocs
- Walmart
- Golf
- Wasp stings
- Canadian stereotypes (we don't all live in igloos. Really)
- Arcane food regulations (I want to be able to get food packages from Canada. And if I want to eat raw milk cheese, then I should be able to do so, dammit!)
- McDonalds
- Most major chain restaurants

"I'm so impressed with wskrz:
flickr :: she takes amazing, beautiful photographs. It's not the equipment (though she loves her beautiful toys), it's her vision and art. She has skills that many of us envy in how she cuts her slices of time with perfect framing and technical expertise, but that's not art--she adds intuition and love.
life :: an exceptional, loving mom...one we should all have had, in her fierce devotion to her family--but it's mixed in with humour and a devastating parsing of what's really and truly important: love your family, love your friends, view the world with an ability to see through the bullshit and find the truth.
me :: an honour for me to stumble into her and count her as a friend"13th August, 2007
