Hello happy fall colours! I might have showed my children a few minutes of Pixar's Ratatouille to try to manipulate them into liking this dish. It did not work. It did succeed in making me cry however, watching a 5 minute clip of a children's animated movie about cooking rats.
Highlights from the weekend. Thank you to friends for bright and delicious gifts.
Sunflowers that grew from seeds from a Mother's Day gift from daycare. I didn't think they would survive the squirrels (and several didn't), but it turns out that they don't like being chased by a mad house wife screaming incantations at them like a witch.
Just had a personal essay/spiritual creative non-fiction piece entitled "Suspension" published in this beautiful issue of The Windhover Journal. It's about saying the Sinner's Prayer under a playground bridge at Poet Burwell Provincal Park, and then spending many childhood years terrified of being sent to hell. (Anyone else experience this? I know many other evangelical Christians who grew up with this paranoia.)
Kombucha making tip: open your bottles outside during second fermentation. Mine exploded all over the kitchen this morning, and I mean all.over. Splatters of berry pulp all over the ceiling, cabinets, floor and hallway. And all over Mark and me. Had to borrow the neighbour's ladder to wipe it off before it began to stain. I think we'll be finding dried splats for months to come.
"These beans are so gorgeous!" the four-year-old keeps saying . . . Because I keep saying it.
