Everything you ever wanted to know about Blue Orchard Mason Bees…

With declining Honey Bee colonies in North America, people are looking for other ways to pollinate. Mason bees are the perfect answer. They are not only adorable to watch, but they are super hard workers (well the girls are anyway) and all they do is pollinate, perfect for all your spring blooming needs especially fruit [...]

When all that is left is the stomach ache…

First I want to say, that I LOVE both these videos. Even though they are supposed to be about boys, they basically say it all…the other one is at the end :) I have blogged about it before. It has been a while. I don’t want to give it anymore of my time is all. [...]

Rockhunting…and swim shoes.

Rockhunting…and swim shoes.

We were pirates today. Rock pirates. We came home without a single rock. But we got wood. So Wood Pirates… It counts. And it was cold. And sunny. And beautiful. I didn’t want to work at all…but I did. Cause we need wood, and I need exercise. To get back in shape, for work. Someone forgot [...]

I want to be blogging but I just. can’t. get. off. of. Pinterest.

I want to be blogging but I just. can’t. get. off. of. Pinterest.

I seriously thought I was past it. I did go through a brutal phase of Pinteresting all the freaking time. Every spare moment I had I was on there. Well, now I don’t have any free time. And the free time I do have is mostly exhausted. But yet, like a Campbellton whore to crack, [...]

Pineapple Angel Food Cake…

Pineapple Angel Food Cake…

Angel food cake is my absolute favorite, and  it is low calorie. For a big piece of cake, way bigger than I would normally even eat, it is only 140 calories. Awesome. So that makes the piece in my picture about 70 calories. This recipe is so easy, I thought, hmmm…probably going to be weird [...]

Welcome home OCD…

Welcome home OCD…

It’s a well known fact that I am obsessive compulsive. Sometimes it is a good thing, sometimes not so much. Today, as Martha would say, it’s a good thing.  I can’t believe I just wrote that, feel free to smack me. Seriously. But it is. I cleaned off my counters. Like really cleaned them off. [...]

Boys will be boys, and we are gonna talk about you…

Boys will be boys, and we are gonna talk about you…

I am going to put my disclaimer first. Just so no one takes this personally. It’s totally not personal at all, it is just in general. It is just my observation. Of course it is biased, for exactly that reason. It’s about men. Right? Now if you are a man, you can either: a) Walk [...]

What does my garden grow??

What does my garden grow??

Well so far, very little. I am hopeful though. As you saw the other day I have planted Kale. Shit loads of kale. Enough kale to maybe feed all of our neighborhood for the summer. I have a plan. It is to save myself loads of cash by from now on having enough kale to feed my [...]

When I just can’t bloody decide…

When I just can’t bloody decide…

What the flaming hell I want it to look like around here. This happens, and by this I mean… It changes five times an hour. The blog. Which means, if you are coming here for a visit you will wonder what the hell is going on. You could look away for just an instant, and when you [...]

Planting peas and memories…

Planting peas and memories…

I have finally done it. It took me a while, I was having a hard time talking myself into the fact that I wanted to go outside and actually do anything. On Thursday at work, I bought some motivation. Kale. Twelve starter plants. Oh yes I did. Now in case you don’t know, I am [...]

When rape goes unpunished…

When rape goes unpunished…

There was a story on the news tonight about a girl in Pitt Meadows, who was drugged and then gang raped at a party in 2010. It was video taped by several people on their cell phones and posted to facebook and twitter. She was 16. And still, the rapist bastards got away. No one [...]
