Hi everyone!
 
I’m taking a break from blogging during the holidays.
We’re leaving for The Big Apple tomorrow morning and we’ll come back on the 30th. We were hoping for some nicer weather than here in Montreal, but it seems that it’s going to be cold and rainy in NY too…
At least there are no snowstorms on [...]

Hi everyone!
I hope your holiday preparations are running smoothly and that you’re not too exhausted from squishing as much work as possible in these last few weeks before the holidays.

We’re lucky enough to share the bedroom wall with the hallway of our next door neighbor. And you guys know that by “lucky” I mean the exact opposite.

Still not feeling 100% above the weather so this is a lightweight post. I guess the title is self-explanatory.
 

Hello readers!
 
Unfortunately I’ve been feeling a bit under the weather yesterday, and spent most of the day in bed, watching When Harry Met Sally, Sleepless in Seattle and The Rebound.
D was such a sweetheart during all this, and was comforting me with biscuits, tea, brownies, hugs&kisses.

And now go watch these two commercials. They’re awesome!
 

 
Have a great weekend!

[ok, so for some reason I forgot to post this yesterday. For my readers from Montreal or anyone who’s watched the weather forecast for Eastern Canada, this wouldn’t make any sense because they would realize the timeline is all screwed up.
