I love my espresso machine, but I do regret not paying the extra $100 for wooden accents. The plastic taps and handles felt really cheap. I commissioned someone to make me some wooden ones out of Macassar Ebony, and they're beautiful. #moreespressolessdepresso #espresso #coffee

Getting better at this latte art thing. The tail is just because I have a bit of milk left over and a bit of empty cup to put it in.

Just read a MUN advisory referring to Petro-Canada Hall in the School of Music. It hasn't been called that in 12 years. 😆

Looks like Brazil has turned his pub into an Embassy or something. Can't spell tongues.

Always hate to see graffiti on my daily walks through Airport Heights, but I must say, they chose a very nice shade of blue.

My doggie has ruined my leather sofas over the years but as we place doggie stairs strategically around the house and I plan to build the deck to garden ramp, it is with huge sadness that I fear her furniture ruining days are probably over. 🥲❤️🐶

You should have to prove you can park one of these before they let you buy one. What is it with truck drivers?

Went to Montanas for pre-birthday supper. I felt that they take their “Go ahead, get messy” slogan a bit too literally. Wait staff knocked over a full glass of Pepsi and a full glass of water over me. Dined wet through from my shirt right down to my socks. Shoes are ruined. [1/2]

I guess small is relative. It's relatively similar in width and height as my old machine. The drip tray weighs about the same as my entire old espresso machine.

Not a five pack. Part of me is disappointed.

What's in the box? That's my new espresso machine! The machine itself isn't huge, so I'm reassured that the packaging probably offers quite a bit of security for it. Either that or I accidentally bought a five pack.

I don't think UPS have ever delivered something when they said they were going to. The thing that really annoys me is that they send you a note the day before saying they're going to deliver, but they never tell you that they've changed their mind.

Lots of progress on my RPM song today with horn section complete and finished the last guitar solo. Just got backing vocals and mix to do to finish it off. Almost certainly the best thing I've ever written. Hoping for a snow day Monday to get it done.

I don't normally share my political voting intentions with cold callers and so when I got a text from PP's folk, I gave a vague, yet definitive answer. I wonder if Sandra has a dilemma over who to put me down for. I imagine she knows deep down but may not be able to articulate in her current role.
