sweet cuppin' cakes
Cupcake giveaway day! It was a cold but lovely day out in Kitsilano, and it took about half an hour to give away approximately 4 dozen mini cupcakes and 3 dozen regular style. Afterwards we went to the Naam for beer and so much food.
Please see here for details and a delightful photo of us.

Hotel Georgia
Jeff took me out for dinner at Sip on Granville before going to see Plants & Animals at the Commodore. We had some delicious food and booze and watched a really excellent show. Yukon Blonde opened, and although I'd heard good things about them, this was the first time I had heard their music. We bought a record of theirs.
On the way to the bus stop afterwards I noticed that the scaffold is finally gone from this building. It had been there for over a year. Upon arriving at the bus stop we decided it was far too cold and we were far too tired to wait 20 minutes for it, so we took a cab home and were in bed by quarter after one. Best decision ever.

salami sandwich, deconstructed
Sometimes you have to take sandwich fixings to work in separate containers so the bread doesn't get soggy.

Jeff and I were too tired to cook, plus we had no real food, so we had dinner at Burgers Etc. We intended to get groceries afterwards, but forgot that Donald's closes at 8 and not 9. We went to Safeway to pick up the essentials and ran into Val and Sean also doing late-night grocery shopping.

Zeus in the recycling, again
I don't know why he seems to so enjoy sleeping amongst egg cartons and torn envelopes and cereal boxes, but you know.

hand holding
Cookoff day! I of course did take photos of the food (a couple of which can be viewed here), but I just really love this shot of Amanda and Tim.
