Clear day….
A clear day from my living room’s window….

December moon…
December Moon is much like me… Full, blurry, and in the dark. Two Moon sisters on a break. Happy full moon, my Lovelies!
Some people’s kids!
Ok I stole that one… But I only copy great people 😉 Yesterday and today, snow caught up with us in Montréal, and this is what I came upon when I got out of the building for my break. The tiniest, cutest, most lovable snow man I had ever seen! Here’s my right foot…… Continue reading Some people’s kids!
Polytechnique…
27 years ago, Québec was wounded in its history… A disturbed man entered a College, separated men from women, and slaughtered the girls. With all the madness going around in the world, 14 deaths and 14 wounded people could seem like a minor incident. But it scarred the province deeply. I know one one of…… Continue reading Polytechnique…
I knew it.
It was inevitable… I’ve been extra careful lately. It is the time of year when you have to keep your guard up at all times, which I thought I had. To my defense, Chéri is like a toddler. He goes to work (ok, toddlers don’t do that, but bare with me) and he brings…… Continue reading I knew it.
November… (same in Danish)
Rain Nope, not anymore…  I wouldn’t want to seem obsessed by the sudden arrival of snow, but I just couldn’t keep myself from doing a Before/After post. Same time yesterday… (Same tid i gÃ¥r – in Danish, I am practicing for February, you know? Februar, in Danish, pÃ¥ dansk, in Danish!) ….  same view, today.…… Continue reading November… (same in Danish)
November Rain…
Blogging is a funny thing… At least for me it is. Today, walking my 3 minutes walk from home to work, wishing I had found my good umbrella, which was of course not going to happen, I just thought…. “Meh, November rain!” Since my brain is almost always in blogging mode, I figured I would…… Continue reading November Rain…
Tirez…
Not an unusual sight… at least in Montréal. I mean the sign on the door. “Tirez” It always catches my eye. Most people are now oblivious to the possible misunderstanding it could provoke. Not me. Quick French class… The verb “Tirer” can mean two very different things… “to pull” or “to shoot”. Do you…… Continue reading Tirez…
Bon voyage, Leonard…
I am sad tonight. Leonard Cohen is no more… I am no one who weeps for celebrities that die. But Sir Cohen was way more than a song writer or a singer… He was a living legend and an incredible gentleman on stage. As I wrote in a former post, I had the chance…… Continue reading Bon voyage, Leonard…
Cyranny’s Jukebox…
This morning I woke up with this old song playing on repeat on my mind. Back in the 60s, it was very popular to take bilboard songs and translate them… Here, “C’est fou mais c’est tout” is the French version of “Hold me tight” from the Beatles. And you most probably know one of the…… Continue reading Cyranny’s Jukebox…
