Interesting Piece

I'm not one to preach a political view over another, nor am I a Harper basher (not that I'm a fan) but this piece is an interesting perspective with a unique voice you should take a minute to watch.

Sea Dogs

That's the name of the Saint John hockey team. I was confident it was in reference to seals...but their mascot is an actual dog, so that leads to a bit of confusion.

Last weekend Greg and I took in a Sea Dogs playoff game. We bought tickets pretty last minute an we managed to get amazing seats - front row next to the Sea Dogs bench.

It turns out that face-offs = lots of butts

Front row seats for the game
also means front row for the zamboni!

There was even a call to 'upstairs' for a questionable goal.

A Sea Dogs blimp?

My snack - in lieu of beer I opted for the kids pack option
I also couldn't decided between salty and sweet and went with
both at the same time (it was a good decision)

The Sea Dogs are still in the playoffs so perhaps we'll be able to check out another game before the season is over.

Egg Alternative

Greg essentially traded soil from the compost bin for locally grown duck and chicken eggs. One local treat for another!

It turns out that duck eggs taste just like chicken eggs, but they come in different sizes:

High School Musical

As part of my internship I volunteered to help with the high school musical. They were doing Joseph and the Amazing Technicolour Dreamcoat (which my class did in grade 4!) and we wrapped the show tonight. It was a fantastic experience and I hope to musical it up in the future!

If you ever get the chance to see this musical I highly recommend it - such catchy songs!

Perfection!

Greg cracked open an avocado this week to reveal a perfect inside, a rare sight indeed:
