Dear friends, you are invited to celebrate Maman’s birthday on 2 July. She would have been 100yo!
Treat yourself to a French pastry, or some Belgian chocolate, or even some delicious gelato/cassata. She loved them all! (Actually, on a really hot day she loved an icy shandy, but I’m not pushing beer)
In the meantime, put on your favorite touque, pour a Labatt’s and dig into a big helping of poutine. Crank up some Bryan Adams tunes, then have a nice Ryan Reynolds movie marathon, eh?
You know what day it is, you hoser.
Just finished my pancakes with real Quebec maple syrup. I may be listening to the Tragically Hip later today as I raise my Maple Leaf flag and enjoy my first Canada Day as a Canadian citizen.
A local philanthropist erected this statue in downtown Edmonton a few years ago to commemorate the place where the first episodes of The Great White North were filmed.
I invited Ryan Reynolds, Ryan Gosling, Brendan Fraser and Rick Moranis to my Canada Day party. None of them could come but they were all very apologetic.
I live in Jersey City now and park on the street. This means moving the car when the street sweepers pass though. Parking here is very tough; sometimes in the evening I drive around for half an hour or more looking for a space. Imagine my visceral and emotional response when I see a car (purposely?) talking up two parking spots. Either the driver is a selfish mutt or they're a selfish mutt and they're saving a space for when hubby gets home.
Last week I had had enough. I had a pen and paper, so I left a note on their windshield that said, "You selfish prick, how many spaces do you need?" Did that change anything? No, but it made me feel better.

I'll chime in here about helmets. A helmet saved me from a serious head injury if not worse. I crashed into an aluminum light pole and even with the helmet, it really rung my bell. Will never ride without a helmet.

I’m making an executive decision. Happy Mel Brooks day! He is 100 years old today. 1900 more to go!

All right we have:
National Camera Day
National Darts Day
National Waffle Iron Day
All today. I’d like to pick one but I’m kinda waffling between them. I know I should get to the point, but it can be hard for me to focus.
