Celebration: Happy 5th Birthday Duke!

| Leave a Reply

My oldest nephew is 5 today! He loves tornadoes, books, forts, printing words, and Nutella. His most recent love, just like almost every other kid out there, is the Disney movie Frozen. Here’s the whole Frozen gang – Elsa, Anna, Olaf, and Kristoff.

Happy Birthday, Duke!

p.s. For those readers who are looking for a Frozen art project – have a look at Jen’s Frozen peg dolls.
p.p.s. Is it odd that I know the names of the characters, considering that I’ve never seen the movie/commercials/ads, and I don’t have kids. Is this normal?

Flowers: Magnolias, Dahlias, Tulips – Oh, My!

| 3 Commentaries

Ah, now that the weather is almost spring-like, I’ve been in the habit of spending some time each Saturday morning at the Kitchener market. If you’re in Kitchener-Waterloo, it’s definitely worth a visit (or several). The food is fresh, the people are nice, and it’s a really lively place. In addition to the usual fruit and veggies purchases, I’ve been spoiling myself with flowers each week. Now that the current home renos are (almost) dust-free, it’s a good time to fill the house with flowers. While I don’t always buy white flowers, they really are some of my favourites. Tulips, hydrangea, carnations, roses – they’re all just lovely in white!
