Spring is NEXT MONTH!!!





Cannot believe I've made it to February already. I'm so desperate for spring to arrive that I am forcing myself to NOT check the news to find out what the groundhog saw. Groundhog or none, spring will arrive here on March 21st SHARP. Period.

Suppers:

Thursday - Chili - yummy but no cornbread on top due to ongoing moth infestation in the cornmeal. :-(((
- No lemony slush beverage either due to SPLAT between Corelle bowl containing fresh lemon juice and floor.
- Chocolatey slush beverage from blender well-received by all
- Oh... yummy olive-oil bread stood in respectably well for cornbread. All food consumed instantly; no leftovers.

Shabbos - At the parents'. Yay!
Shabbos lunch - At the Weidbergs'. Walked a million miles to get there. Nice temperatures, but too much slush... took almost two hours for me, Elisheva and the littles.

After Shabbos, we went downtown to the Wintercity festival to see the million flowerpots of fire they had burning at city hall. As usual when something significant is happening, I forgot the camera. OK, "forgot" is the wrong word. When you're mustering 4 kids out the door with diapers and snacks and bus tickets, there comes a point where you say "we're leaving no matter what" and then you have to look at the camera across the room, sigh, and pull the door shut behind you. Or else it just does not happen.

It was lovely, though, and now that I've blogged it, hopefully I'll remember it longer than 30 seconds.

It's Heart Month: 3 days left to save lives!

Dear Friends & Family: Hi, everybody! Sorry I can’t stop by in person... you're a bit out of my area.  :-) We’re out walking up and down on our street on this beautiful afternoon to raise money for Heart & Stroke.  This cause is important to me (I won't say it's close to my heart , because that would be tacky!).  I hope you'll join me by donating online. Growing up, I watched as every single one of my grandparents' lives were shortened by heart disease and strokes, and my father had a defibrillator that saved his life on more than one occasion.  Heart disease and stroke kill 1 in 3 Canadians and are the #1 killer of women. Please click this link to be redirected to my main page at the Heart & Stroke website: http://tinyurl.com/AtlasHeart Thus ends my personal appeal.  Official information follows.  :-))) ----- Heart disease and stroke is the #1 killer of women - taking more women's lives than all forms of cancer combined. But no one is immune. Th
