. At this time of the summer, 6 PM is the sparrows’ dinner time. They pass the word around and fly by our front balcony all at once, enjoying the bird bath, the seeds of all kinds and the peanuts. If they’re too loud, I shush them once or twice, to remind them that we…… Continue reading Call me Snow White!
. That matters, it is the journey. We’ve all heard that, but how many of us really take a pause to appreciate the trip instead of focusing only on our goal? Today, I attended my first ”party” since the beginning of the pandemic. You might remember Booh Boss, who retired earlier this year. You don’t?…… Continue reading It’s not the destination…
. Admit it! A little more than two years ago, when I started documenting the insane amount of trash that my across-the-street neighbours were getting rid of, I know that it crossed your mind. Suspecting that my neighbours were serial killers, slaughtering innocents, choping them to pieces, and throwing them out with their less incriminating…… Continue reading And you thought I was crazy…
. We’d go on long walks, because it is the best way to discover all the very different and unique neighbourhoods of our metropolis. You might have heard of how chaotic driving downtown is, with the blocked streets and the orange cones everywhere… Anything people have told you is probably right. Montréal is a nightmare…… Continue reading If you came to Montréal… (15)
I was invited (well, not personally, but still…) to join the Fandango’s Friday Flashback! Fandango scrolls back, every Friday, and gives a second chance to a post he had published on the same date, years before. I thought it was a great way to remember some of the stuff I did a while back, and I…… Continue reading No coffee for them Frogs! (Late July 29th FFF)
. Like most people, I don’t like to ask for help. But this is so easy, that I’ll take a chance… After all, you Lovelies are the kindest of people, and I know that if I don’t ask, I won’t know if it could work. I would like to start doing ”Live” events on YouTube.…… Continue reading A little help, pretty pretty please…
. Chéri just brought to my attention that we are about to die. We had been warned that today, the weather would be particularely hot, but for some reason, the government hasn’t prepared us for that much heat. Then again, I can’t really blame them. There’s nothing they could have done to save us anyway.…… Continue reading Time to say goodbye…
. Can you believe it’s been three years, since J and I last made one of our improvised mini-trips to downtown Montréal? It was about time we’d start our little escapades again. So, as we used to, previous to that little pandemic thing, we didn’t plan anything. We just set a date and time, and…… Continue reading If you came to Montréal… (14)
. I seize it. This evening, I was talking to Mom over the phone when I heard unusual noise outside the apartment. Of course I had to rush to the window to check what was going on… A woman had just parked this boat just in front of our home. I took a picture, and…… Continue reading When I see an opportunity…
. Our vacation week continues… After spending a weekend in a cabin in the middle of the woods, and then enjoying two days sleeping late and just taking care of minor chors, it was about time we headed downtown Montréal, to see if it was true that the tourists were back after two years. Chéri…… Continue reading J’aime Montréal… How about you?
