I will be spending a bit of time here.

Tell me 5 random things that you love (not people/pets) 1. Freshly brewed coffee 2. Giving baking to people 3. Walking where people walked 100s/1000s of years ago, especially steps 4. Morning walk after a rain 5. Perfectly ripe tomatoes

Treats for the flight attendants ! @aircanada.bsky.social

It is a bit wet out. Still need our walks.

I would love to speak Magpie.

One of the best things of summer or spring…

Today is a most excellent day.

Morning espresso.

Gluten free Yorkshire puddings!

Birria beef cheeks.

Beef cheeks.

Morning espresso in my new Raven Moon cup from Native Northwest

New very tasty hot sauce from @ranchogordo.bsky.social Rancho Gordo Gay Caballero Hot Sauce

Been away a week, back in Alberta. Anything happen?

Vermillion river. And some very tall hills.

Hey @ashleysalvador.bsky.social @apaquette.bsky.social @andrewknack.bsky.social here are some traffic calming measures that are actually designed to reduce vehicle speed and volume, like on 88 Avenue in Bonnie Doon area. Love to see these in action!

Taco time

Pristine view. IYKYK

Just some mountains.

Today is Nakba Day. The genocide is ongoing. Do not forget Palestine. Do not forget Gaza. Palestine is the future.

Alberta has turned federal alienation and grievances into a personality. At some point we have to ask “What would satisfied even look like?”

Gluten free blueberry raspberry muffins. Also dairy free.

Morning espresso!

Great to see @mark-carney.bsky.social in Armenia for the European Political Community Summit, and I hope this can also lead to more trade and economic relations with Armenia.

This amendment will negatively impact the quality of infill in Edmonton, leading to continued mediocrity www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

An Edmonton thing. Oilers are oilering

Who needs a ball when you have snow to eat!

111 years ago the Ottoman Empire tried to eradicate Armenians. Today on Armenian Genocide Remembrance day we remember and honour the victims and all those who endured unimaginable suffering. We reflect, and we reckon with what happens when the world chooses ignorance and complicity.

Rather than letting the turmoil of Alberta politics get me down, I am focusing on a positive future that I can influence.

Heard councillor @apaquette.bsky.social on the radio talking about the need for more enforcement including more officers to support residential parking bans for snow removal and street cleaning in particular. 1/

This is next level repugnant.

Morning magpie. Floofy.

With spring in the air, we have limes strewn on paths and sidewalks.

Picked up a few things yesterday from Shaheen Grocery and Bakery 28 Ave Calgary Trail). Some jams from Iran, Barberi bread, pistachios, walnuts and pomegranate candy. They have lots of other things from spices and pickles, all sorts of dried fruits too. Check them out.

Morning Magpies, in the snow.

Sometimes you take an Uber and they take a weird route, like opposite direction. Suggest a better way. They say say just following GPS. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Floofy tail Friday!

I long for speed bump or two on our street.

This is the only rational decision the court could make. “An Ontario Superior Court justice has ruled that the Al-Quds Day rally in Toronto may continue as planned Saturday afternoon.” www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

I want spätzle now!

Heard on the radio today « that extra hour of sunlight with the time change is really melting the snow! » Hmmm. Doesn’t work that way.

Is there a more beautiful bird! Magpie.

Aside from all the crap happening in Alberta, here is another reason to move to BC! www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
