Quebec City

We got Remembrance Day off from school and Friday was an independent study day so Jess and I hitch hiked to Quebec City. This was our first real hitch hiking experience and it went really well! We got on the high way about 10:30 and got picked up within minutes and taken to Moncton (first time a father/daughter picked us up). We got picked up in about 15-20 minutes and taken to Fredericton, an old man driving to his grandkids in the States with lots of Christmas presents. We were crossing the road to get to the on ramp and as a car camp Jess held the sign up and jumped, he pulled over. Randy was going all the way to Quebec City and we had some awesome conversations with him.

We got a little lost trying to find Megan & Patrick's house but ended up there alright. Jess found them via Couch Surfing, they easily won cutest couple award. We spent all day Friday walking around Vieux Quebec, after getting lost. We don't take maps, we don't worry about getting lost, actually we look forward to it. It's not that we're ever completely lost, we like wandering and seeing where we end up. We found a really big toy store (Benjo) and spent quite some time in there, it was so awesome. When I'm rich, I'm gonna own a toy store.

More to come!

Baking Adventures

Jess and I tried to make Cake Pops one night...they're a lot harder than we though. Didn't turn out quite like they should but they were yummy! We also made too many, I think there are still some in our freezer.

None of my house mates had ever had Pierogi lasagna so last Friday I made a dish and Caty, Kristie and I ate half of it that night. Gareth never got to try any because we ate it so fast. They wanted me to make it again and we had all the ingredients except cottage cheese, so I said if they bought that I'd make it again. This time I made two dishes, I think one is gone already. Gareth & Margo got to try it this time and they both like it too. If you've never had it, I highly recommend it.

Caty turned 21 this week so we made her a cake :) Once again we made too much so we'll be eating cake all week.

New Hair, Encore

I really like changing my hair a lot, my way of seeing it is that it grows back. Having dreads made it difficult to change up a lot so I really had to get rid of them. Now, je suis le petit prince :)

Voici mon secret. Il est très simple: on ne voit bien qu'avec le cœur. L'essentiel est invisible pour les yeux.
