  1. You and I enjoy similar things, Jen. Dinners with friends (breakfasts, too), new recipes, wine, dumpster diving/urban recycling... what did you find dumpster diving?

    What did I do Tuesday night? I went for a walk in my favourite local park and discovered a new bridge over a serene canal, saw a baby heron as it flew surprisinly close to me (it's flapping wings were so quiet). Then the heron mama or papa flew by and wow, are they ever big! And graceful. Then it was back home where I made dinner (veggie burittos) and caught up with some blog reading and wrote a blog invitation and then...um...went to bed with my sweetie. It was a quiet night.

  3. Ahh, deep sigh for beauty. Have I told you how lucky I am that our paths crossed? Oh yes, I am a lucky one. Dumpster diving, food, friendship... were going to get on, just fine, my friend. : )
    Such glorious photos!
    Tuesday* grilled eggplant and mozzerella pizza, took a walk with the love of my life, stopped and got the kids some orange sherbet... Everyone fell asleep in our room, and that's where we remained, until morning. : )
