Friendship

November 21, 2012 by Kath

For my friend: you know who you are.So you know those times, the ones where life is such a hard, hard struggle you just don't know how you're going to make it through? Those rough, tough times, when all you can do is get your Dory on and just keep swimming? I'm there, friends. I'm not … [Read more...]

Feeling It All

November 19, 2012 by Tracey

Yesterday my mother-in-law asked for some French toast. I was more than pleased to quickly beat an egg with some milk, and a dash of salt and vanilla... butter in the pan makes it puffy and golden. Anything she wants. Anything at all. I dropped a few fresh raspberries on top. Maple syrup in the … [Read more...]

my favourite thing of the week- hysterical laughter

November 18, 2012 by Nancy

You know those traditions that are dead simple yet you would walk on coals to maintain and uphold  them?  One of my favourite traditions is birthday dinners with two of my favourite girls. Scenario is always the same- drinks at one person's house  and then a walk to a local restaurant where … [Read more...]

my favourite thing of the week-your hand in mine

November 11, 2012 by Nancy

When you reached over and took my hand in the middle of nothing and for no particular reason, regardless of whether anyone could see and in spite of anyone being able to see, that was my favourite moment all week. … [Read more...]

for now it sleeps

November 10, 2012 by Nancy

You are my friend from childhood and we lost touch. Your visiting cancer brought us back together. You come to me now as a gift. You show me your hope and your strength. The other day you were, for a moment, cranky and mad at  the condition it has put you in.  You said 'Nance, the chemo is … [Read more...]

Time delay

October 31, 2012 by Jason

Comparisons to one's own youth make for easy fodder as a person who primarily writes about being a father. Looking back, growing up was neither difficult nor easy for me as a child of divorce.  I was never truly left wanting nor showered with the abundance of my peers. I loved my mother and my … [Read more...]

the end of an era-49 sidewalk steps becomes 395

October 19, 2012 by Nancy

It is the fantasy of every little girl to have your closest friends live next door. You could tie tin cans with a rope from bedroom window to bedroom window and share your secrets in the night. You could run back and forth from one back yard to the other, you could eat meals together, see each other … [Read more...]

Weekend north

October 16, 2012 by Jason

We had 15 people up north this past weekend, four couples and seven kids all under 10. This was the second weekend in a row of hosting so it has taken its toll both on our culinary creativity as well as our cheque book.  Needless to say, we are taking a break this weekend, laying low with me at … [Read more...]

The Girls.

September 25, 2012 by Tracey

Our little neck of the 'hood is chock-full-o-kids. There are often six or seven of them milling about at one time, but at weekends, their numbers easily swell to fifteen or so. Their ages range from twelve down to two... it's pretty awesome, really, how they all play together, and how the older ones … [Read more...]
