Yesterday, we took a drive (around an hour and a quarter each way) to the Naramata Bench wine country to try some places we hadn't been before. First, though, the requisite stop at the local coffee shop for an iced mocha for the road! Our first true stop was Deep Roots Winery, a family-owned winery, … Continue reading Winery Tour

About pumicing one’s feet on the beach? Eww. Just saying…
Back in My Happy Place
I'm back in Osoyoos, BC again, for my annual beach vacation. I've been so looking forward to taking a full break from work -- no projects to work on and most importantly... no emails! Just time to do whatever the day brings. I feel like I could probably just post the same pictures every year … Continue reading Back in My Happy Place
Still Obsessed Enough to Watch “Obsession”
Yes, I admit that I watched it in its entirety on the first night, as at around 2 and a half hours, it could have been called a movie, rather than a limited series. Obsession is a taut and stylish thriller, which held my attention throughout and which I enjoyed. In my opinion, it is … Continue reading Still Obsessed Enough to Watch “Obsession”

MIA from the Blogosphere
https://pixabay.com/vectors/milk-carton-milk-missing-31473/ I always used to scratch my head wondering why people went MIA from the blogosphere. I couldn't imagine it ever happening to me! And yet, here I am. (Or, here I wasn't!) Only 18 posts last year and this is only my 6th for 2022. So, what happened? It really isn't that I have … Continue reading MIA from the Blogosphere
Back in My Happy Place
After an especially intense period at work, we finally made our annual trek to the beach in Osoyoos, BC. Same beach, same hotel, same unit. Boring? Well, my older son thinks so and doesn't come anymore, but the rest of us find the sameness relaxing. Both my husband and I still had to do a … Continue reading Back in My Happy Place
