Random Photos


The two QT pies...K& K!

Here's what to do with those ripening pears...Follow the Brenda Streudal recipe and add pears for your fruit. Drizzle with a chocolate glaze!

Yes, it tasted delicious! Thanks Lynn for bringing over the pears! Yum!

Sunday, out in the boat. Emil fished, but they weren't biting our line that day. It was a gorgeous sunny day. I felt like a cat lying in the sunshine at the back of the boat with Silky curled up next to me... What a wonderful way to relax! We did our usual route out to the main lake and then tootled down towards Crawford Bay, and up into Crawford bay ( rather rocky for the most part.) Emil reeled in his line and then we set off to find a sandy beach to pull the boat up onto for our picnic. We were somewhat surprised to discover that each beach had three or four boats in it already! Also,we discovered that many of the beaches were small rocks instead of sand and the waters in front of the beach were also heavily populated with large rocks. ...hence no boats there!
In the end we brought our picnic back to JAnice and Gord's beach at Balfour, and interrupted them from work for a few minutes to soak up the sun. All in all, the day was a pleasant way to wind down a busy week or two.
Time for bed... Seems like this tooth is acting up again and giving me some kind of ache in the face...not to be confused with egg in the face!
