My friends and family back in Edmonton think that we eat lobster – like – everyday or something. This is a popular misconception regarding Maritimers. #1 that they all talk funny and #2 that we murder sea life on a daily basis. No – lobster’s are still expensive relatively speaking, so we tend to eat [...]

Obviously I survived the night since I am writing this. It was touch and go there for awhile. I broke down and purchased the “Extremely Tasty Expensive” cat kibble to make up for the no-name stuff…and everything seems back to normal in our house. [...]

A while back hubby told me that I needed to write more ‘funny’ blog posts…well, this is hard, because I do not think I am a funny person or trying to be so…that is just the way I see life. So…today on my way to the microwave to re-heat my coffee (because I’m cheap) and [...]

Arrests made in ring that sold human fat, Peru says

My first thought was ‘Pishtacos’ was ‘Fishtacos’ with a speech impediment. But did not the Fundywriter (that’s me in case you didn’t know) warn you about this?? Last week I wrote about just this thing: “Earthrace Joins the Sea Sheperd’ which can run on ‘Human Fat!’ But no - I was being a fear monger…but no more! [...]

Twilight author Stephanie Meyer
Posted in Uncategorized, tagged Stephanie Meyer, Twighlight on November 16, 2009 | 2 Comments »
“Twilight” author Stephanie Meyer was interviewed on last Friday’s Oprah. She sat there all cute and really not stuck up at all. All “I have four published books all made into billion dollar movies” kind of cuteness, all humble and everything. And she did all this while chasing two toddlers around the house. I could [...]
