Where will the time go?
With New Years only a few days away I’m starting to wonder what types of projects or changes might be in store for 2009. Not in a New-Years-Resolution type way, however, which are always broken immediately. (Who bought a gym membership and went three times in a year?)
I think I’d like to simply get things done this year. Pure and simple. Turning 30 might also be to powering this list – I was supposed to be living in California and fluent in German by now. Mach schnell!
So, one obtainable goal I’d like to set I’m going to set for this year is to try to make breakfast at home more often. Instead of coffee and a croissant every day from the coffee shop at work, as much as I love them, I’ll whip something up at home. I found a flickr set not long ago that has the tastiest set of photos taken at breakfast every morning. This picture in particular kills me:
If I could stop hitting snooze so many times and hurry up and get out of bed, this is what I’d like to have for breakfast in the morning. I’d also love to be organized enough to make homemade scones, freeze them, and heat them up in the morning. But that seems to much to ask at this juncture.
Hmm… I’m still not sure this plan is feasible. Maybe I’ll hope for this Christmas miracle instead.
Happy Holidays!
Hope you’re having a lovely Christmas. I have so much in store tomorrow I can barely stand it. Fancy breakfast with meats, cheeses, coffee (with that lovely liquid vanilla. mmm) cookies and so on. Then opening some presents – Santa sure has sent a lot of packages from Montreal. weeeeee! The rest of the day will be spent skiing at Sunshine and later on cooking a turkey. So far our first Christmas in Banff is getting a big high-five.
Here’s hoping your Christmas is tasty and delicious, too!

Where has the time gone?
Could it be that there hasn’t been anything happening here since April? That’s terrible! The last few months have been spent moving in and out of new apartments (three), learning the ropes at a new job, camping, concerts, hiking, skiing, skating, watching blockbuster movies, and spying on elk and mountain sheep out of my living room window.
But it’s also been a bit restless. Books and movies started and not finished. Cell phones in limbo. Projects started and put aside. (Well, that’s not really that out of the ordinary I guess.)
I think it’s time to get the ball rolling again. I’ll need to wade through about eight months of spam and dust off the ‘ol html, however.
While I’m cleaning up, why not take a peak at one of my favourite sites: Orangette. So many good recipes and pictures. The author even has a book coming out soon, A Homemade Life: Stories and Recipes from My Kitchen Table.
Check in again soon, won’t you?
