Some recent randoms.

We had a couple visitors early this morning. These deer were practically on my front step!

Some amazingly tasty food today from Café Caya Mangé in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia. These folks are from St Lucia and make delicious #vegan #plantbased food with a Caribbean flare. We tried the walnut meat wrap, zesty island chick’n burger, and a couple of desserts. Unbelievable quality and good value.

Deer-watching with my feline friends Richard & Henry.

Continuing to work on my swing mechanics, hitting lots of balls off the tee. Definitely feeling the results, making solid contact and able to place the ball well. Picked up a like new Easton FireFlex 240 bat (27oz end-loaded), some quality batting gloves, and a silicon knob grip. #softball

Bbq jackfruit poutine. Breakfast of champions. #vegan #plantbased

When you’re taking some batting practice off the tee and absolutely crush the first ball, but then almost whiff on the next one and hit yourself in the head on the backswing. I love this game 😂 🥎 #softball #battingpractice #springtraining

I ate almost nothing but Indian food for a week recently and it is by far my favorite cuisine. This amazing chana masala was from The Indian House restaurant in Bridgetown, NS. If you ever find yourself in the neighborhood it is well worth the visit.

Today marks one month since Marley passed. It simultaneously feels like yesterday and a million years ago. Still intensely missing my friend of 2 decades.

An update on the Legend of Dragoon progress. A few hours in now, and starting to open up with the story and game mechanics. #RetroJRPG #PlayStation #VideoGames

Well until the snow over the past 24 hours, it was beginning to look kinda springy out there and I’ve been dreaming of hitting the ball field soon in preparation for this year’s softball season. We’ve got most guys returning from last year so a solid core.

One of my favorite dishes is this homemade samosa bowl with potato, peas, carrots, roasted chickpeas, and a tamarind chutney.

A nice hearty homemade #plantbased goulash for dinner today, with a slice of buttered bread and a blackberry ginger ale.

It’s been a week, and Marley’s absence is so incredibly overwhelming. The grief continues, but it is matched by my gratitude to have known her for almost 20 years. 💜

I’ve recently started replaying “The Legend of Dragoon” for the first time in approx 25 years. Originally released on PS1. This is one of those games that, while flawed, has a story which leaves a lasting impression. Very excited to dive deeper into this one.
