how to spend time with people

There were a couple of messages on facebook inviting me to play some silly game. Normally, I ignore those requests, but in a moment of boredom, I checked it out. I already play scrabble with a couple of people (though I keep forgetting for days/weeks at a time).

I have been busy trying to beat my cousins' scores on Diamond Blitz. I managed to wriggle my way into second place! Now, I sit at the computer impatiently waiting for 'new life' so I can continue. This is why I never played things like tetris before. Sigh. The laundry is waiting for some new life as well.

In other news, I am now the 50th on most postcards sent from Canada. I suddenly felt a competitive urge come over me when I reached 49th on longest distance in Canada. I am ridiculously excited by this achievement.

And a friend and I went to out to dinner last night for Winterlicious. We chose a restaurant that is well known for being a mecca (for people known as stars) during the Toronto International Film Festival. Just to get ourselves inside and see what they would see.
This was desert.
apple crumble
and a cheese plate

  1. That reminds me that I must send you a postcard and no, it will not have dessert on it!

  2. I'm quite sure the chef had a pleasant time arranging your dessert. Was it actually meant to be eaten?

    1. yes, it was eaten and was very good, just the oddest looking crumble and cheese plate we'd ever seen!

  3. A lovely evening, V! Even if we couldn't get a word in edgewise between all the hovering staff.
