What have I been up to lately?


It's finally spring, which is great! I have been pretty busy lately. My time has been occupied by nothing that significant but I love being busy. Work has been busy, with the Winter campaign coming to an end; my hours will return to normal in a few weeks and for that I am excited! Working at a University means summer arrives early. Once all the students leave, the University seems to take a nice long breather. I love my lunch hours by the Ottawa River, reading a book.

I have been out dancing at a bar twice. Yes, it is true!

I have been out on a blind date (well sort of).

I have been to the Le Nordik Spa. Unlike anything I have ever done before, but I felt great afterwards and my skin looked great too.

I have had many nice meals out with friends and family.

Oh and finally ( and maybe embarrassingly) I have joined facebook.


Life is good.


What I hope to accomplish today:

1. Clean the bathroom.

2. Bake some peanut butter and chocolate squares.

3. Laundry

4. Enjoy a fantastic easter meal with friends and family.

5. Watch some Grey's.


Cooking Tip of the day: My favorite and famous tomato sauce: 1 can of diced tomatoes, 1 chopped onion, 2-3 gloves of garlic, a little olive oil, 1 tsp of brown sugar, basil 1 tsp, oregano 1tsp (if you happen to have fresh herbs, add them at the end) , a shake of hot pepper flakes, salt and pepper to taste. Put all ingredients in a pot and bring to a boil; then simmer for at least 30 minutes. At this point add some tomato paste until it reaches desired consistency. Simmer for another 15 minutes or so. Serve with hot pasta. My favorite is cheese tortellini. And finally sprinkle with freshly grated Parmesan.

* this sauce is great the next day, and is awesome as a sauce for pizza*
