(Late) Weekend Recap in Pictures

Saturday morning wine bottling. We may or may not have consumed more than a bottle of this  by the end of the weekend.
Food tour to St. Lawrence Market, Evergreen Brick Works, Kensington Market & The Distillery  District

A four course cheese dinner at Cheesewerks. Tina is just entering her cheese coma in this picture, mine soon followed
I made friends with a mime in Kensington Market...the conversation was very one sided

I met Rob & Michelle's perfectly beautiful 5 week old daughter Athena. She has the cutest little nose and mouth...perfection in a 10 pound package!
I acted a fool...as usual
My sister and I

 The weekend was just what I needed...I came home feeling calm and relaxed. Come on life...bring it!

    A CHEESE DINNER!?!?! OMG. Stop. Also- love the name Athena!! Despite living in Athens, I've never heard of anyone naming their daughter that! Maybe it'd be a little too obvious living here? Still. Very cute.

    You have such an amazing spirit and presence about yourself Janet. I just love following you and I love that you have fun regardless. LIke that saying " dance like no one is watching". That reminds me of you in so many ways.

    Love your pictures! You look so pretty on your red top. And if I may say, that baby suits you so well. I want to see a picture like that with a baby that's yours VERY soon. xo

    You DID need that. Wine and cheese and foolishness? How wonderful. I think traveling is the best cure for most things.

    Lovely photos! When I was a poor student my friends and I used to go to St Lawrence Market for 'brunch' (i.e. touring our way around the building and grabbing freebie samples at each stall) on a regular basis. Ah, the memories...

    Glad you had such a blast! You and your sister look so much alike!

Keeping Secrets

I've been keeping a secret. I'm not even going to make you wait. I'm just going to come out and say it. I really don't like when people say, "Hey, I have news" and then ramble on for fifteen minutes about how they didn't know how to tell you, and would you like the good news or the bad news first. I mean, if you don't know how to tell me, then maybe you should have thought about it a little bit more before you brought it up, because now I'm just sitting here waiting while you find the perfect words to share news that...let's be honest...probably doesn't impact me in the slightest. And as for the good news/bad news question? What do you think? If you're really asking, I'd rather not hear the bad news at all. Because who wants to hear bad news? Unless it's just "bad" relative to the good news, but not really all that bad in its own right, well then I guess I wouldn't mind hearing it. And I might like to hear it first...

Birthdays & Beauty

Yesterday was Adam's 35th Birthday. I baked him a cake (it was a sad, sad little cake but it was a homemade...sad, sad little cake),  bought him balloons and decorated the house a little... I thought the silly faces would be cute...but they look kind of creepy! We had a lovely evening. Happy Birthday Adam...love you much! Adam's birthday got me to thinking about my next birthday. I'll be 37 this summer and I’ve noticed I’m no longer as young as I think I am. This epiphany usually happens when I look in the mirror, a habit  I'm  trying to lose.  I don’t wear a lot of  makeup usually , but recently (yesterday cause I left work early to bake a cake, baked the cake, looked in the mirror, felt old, went to the mall to buy something to fix it), I forked over $27 for a tube of concealer. I walked into the makeup section at the Bay...something I never ever, ever do. In fact, I go out of my way to never enter the Bay using the  entrance ...

Unexpected?

Just got the call that I had been fearing but perhaps was expecting. The embryos were not there. We have nothing. Heartbroken doesn't begin to describe how I am feeling.
