Cauliflower has been on sale this week – 2 heads for $3! I bought a couple to have for snacks.  John and I enjoy our “cocktail hour” and instead of eating some chips or cheese and crackers with our glass … Continue reading

August 16, 2016 – Brain food

August 15, 2016 – Maenam, Vancouver, B.C.

On our recent trip the most northerly city we reached was Vancouver, B.C. It is a really nice city, clean, with lots of parks and flowers, good restaurants, and friendly people. I found an article naming Maenam, a Thai restaurant, … Continue reading
