They’re here in the Thompson-Nicola too; I quite like the thieving rascals. I hadn’t realized that they’re largely absent from the coast.

Welcome to my back yard! Just returned from the glow-stick & torchlight parades, and the fireworks. Might see you on the slopes or the snowshoe trails tomorrow…

Les choux-fleurs = cabbage flowers. You can see why. But no matter how flowery the name, still don’t like them… not even roasted; I’ve tried!

Those are the best kinds of xmas trees IMO- the ones where there’s a story attached to each ornament.

That place! (which I learned of from you) Was there a month ago visiting from the interior. Took tremendous self discipline to not go overboard. A better name for it IMO would be Aladdin's Cave; the presentation is astonishing.

An upside to those temperatures with dogs: When living in Carmacks, it took very little time to train my puppy to pee on command outside. She had no interest in staying outside longer than needed.

Spinach. Yuck. Although to be fair, when I was 10, it was served up as a slimy, boiled, green mess. Now I eat it almost every day in a salad; still don’t like it cooked unless in a soup or pasta sauce.
