Weather Update

This is the result of yesterday's dusting of snow. It's been flurrying lightly off and on all day today, and the white stuff is beginning to collect in spots.

Canadian leaves got seriously gypped this year. They didn't even get a chance to change color. We went from mostly green "summer" weather, to frigid and bleak in less than two weeks. Carol keeps telling me that this isn't what Canadian weather is normally like. "It never snows in October," she says. "Just wait, we'll have an indian summer yet." (I'm still not sure why this term hasn't been updated to the more politically-correct "Native American summer", but I'm sure that somewhere there are liberals who are hopping mad over it.) Personally, I rather suspect that this year may well set the "new" norm, as the cooling trend picks up momentum. I guess this remains to be seen.

Wow, Wow, Everyone

This cartoon is Shiloh's favorite. His favorite characters are Wubbzy, Walden, Widget, and the one that says "Koooky!"

Multi-Tasking Seasons

It was fall at Bobchi's yesterday afternoon, as most of the leaves abandoned the trees to carpet the front lawn.





Fall ended a mere couple of hours later, and winter flurried in:

I guess it makes sense that it should be this way. We didn't get a spring, after all, or a summer. Why would we get a fall?

Opa!

This is a souvlaki pita wrap from Opa!, and it's GOOD. Mine has lamb, onions, tomatoes, jalapeños, feta cheese, and Tzatziki sauce. $5 worth of heaven.
