There are many stray cats in our neighbourhood. It is not uncommon to hear cats fighting or just making themselves known all year long. I am fluent in Cat-talk, and I can recognize the meows of a lost kitty when I hear one. And yesterday night, one showed up on our front porch. Of course,…… Continue reading Overnight visitor…
Well past most people’s bedtime and I am still awake, getting ready for our little weekend getaway. The apartment is filled with the soul warming scent of the spaghetti sauce batch, slowly stirring on the stove. I am not the bragging kind, but I make the best spaghetti sauce I’ve tasted. Even Mom, who taught…… Continue reading I am Nadia…
I have a bagful of good memories from my three visits to Denmark. One of my favorites, is the day I spent in Fyn Island with a dear Danish friend of mine. After packing a light lunch in Svendborg, where my friend used to live, we went on a cruise along the shore, before…… Continue reading Random Danish memories…
My oh my… I am back! I mean, I wasn’t away. But the sudden death of my late keyboard forced to an almost 48 hours cessez-le-feu writing wise. And since I had been relatively productive as of lately, it was quite a bummer. I was off from work today. The plan was not to get out of…… Continue reading Sigh of relief…

Preferably important things. And he is pretty good at it. Debit cards (mine is more fun to lose), contact…… Continue reading Hobbies…
Almost got run over by one of these monsters tonight…. I guess it just wasn’t my time. You just get lucky, sometimes….
Have you ever tried sneezing with your arms full, on your way to the dishwasher? Yeah… I didn’t really like these wine glasses anymore, anyway!
Technology is great. Without advancing technology, The Internets wouldn’t exist, and I wouldn’t be here, talking about this. What? you might wonder… I’m getting there. So yeah, a thumb up for technology in general, but it has its down sides too. One of them being the systematic digitalization (is that even a word??) of…… Continue reading Me and my stamps…
My front neighbour(s) is (are) a bit creepy. I’ve been living in my apartment for 6 years now, and for one thing, those neighbours produce an amazing load of trash every week. Here in Montréal, people take their garbage out once a week and leave it on the sidewalk to be picked up. A large…… Continue reading You know you’re creepy, right?
