Mid-Week Procrastination
The apathy is strong this week, or maybe it’s not apathy maybe it’s that thing the New York Times talked about last week that everyone was sharing (it’s in here don’t worry if you missed it) but it’s kind of between enthusiasm for life and apathy caused by a simple lack of stimulation; languishing. And…

Recent Recipe Successes
I was talking to some friends over the weekend and we were talking about having to cook for ourselves (mostly along the lines of “No one tells you adulthood is figuring out what to eat 3x a day for the rest of your life”) and having the “we have food at home conversation with themselves”.…

Obsessions: April 24
I’m rounding out the Earth Week content with a themed obsessions post! From drag-tivism to my favourite shops in Ontario to access low waste products – these are a few of my favourite things.

Obsessions: April 17
Normally I write this post on Friday nights, but the news of our lockdown being extended made me not do anything last night. I agree that lockdown should be extended, we need further public health measures because this is the worst the pandemic has ever been in Ontario. Our new cases daily, our hospitalizations daily,…

Quarantine Round 4 Activities
Well Ontario. We’re nearly a week in to Quarantine/Lock-down/Stay-at-home/Flatten the curve number 4 here. And given that this is probably the worst wave that we have seen yet that when this stay-at-home order expires it will not be releasing us straight into normal pre-COVID life. So I need some things to do. In the past…

Mid-Week Procrastination
This week is pretty heavy at work but I am really enjoying it! I normally hate making videos, but a) I actually suggested the video as an option and b) it’s not that bad? It’s definitely time consuming! I’ve been working on it for nearly 17 hours now and have nearly designed and animated about…
