Chicken Curry
The other day, Kris messaged me at work and asked if I could teach him how to make my family’s Chicken Curry recipe.
This family favourite (and just about everyone else’s’ as
well) came to us through an old boyfriend of my Aunt’s in the 70s. His father
was Indian, and one of the head chefs for Via Rail, so he knew how to cook! My grandmother, being the least
shy person on the planet, asked for it, and our family has been making it ever since.

The Shoe Challenge - Update
Last week back I posted about The Shoe Challenge which some of my co workers are participating in.
The first week has concluded and so far I'm sitting (stepping?) pretty.

Cottage Weekend - Part 2: Deck, Hikes and Indoor Activities
As much as my friends and I could have spent all weekend by the water, my dock is pretty small for 10-14 people, and there’s only so many times you can water ski!
Luckily, last fall my parents built a beautiful wraparound
porch for the cabin, which gave us ample space for some pre-dinner snacks and
activities.
Cottage Weekend - Part 1: Water Sports
We managed to do some of the things I wanted to do, but of
course there’s only time for so much!

A Night Of Country In The City
Last night my friends and I decided to take in a Brad Paisley concert in Toronto.
I've never been the biggest country fan, but I love a good girls night out, the open air at the Molson Amphitheater, and taking in a concert so I figured what the heck!
The Shoe Challenge – Take Two
A few years ago, one of the women at my office participated in a “Shoe Challenge” where she had to wear a different pair of “Work Appropriate” shoes every day for 30 work days. Wagers were placed, and in the end she was able to do it (with shoes to spare) – Read all about it here!
We were discussing the challenge this morning and decided
that we would try again, only this time it would be to discover who had the
MOST shoes.
