Turtlepace: Happy Riding
http://turtlepacerun.blogspot.com/2013/02/happy-riding.html
Thursday, February 07, 2013. Unexpected sunshine and beautiful sunrise this morning. Love my "social circle" of other riders/walkers:. This morning, the chatty Brit, who almost always passes me somewhere near The Bridge, had a big smile on his face, as did I, as we marveled about the unexpected sunshine. How many friendly social interactions did you have on your commute today? BTW, no incidents with cars today. In fact, there was hardly any traffic both morning and evening. Follow me on Twitter.

Sunday, January 05, 2014. New Year's Resolutions, Looking Back and Ahead! Now that the Christmas and New Year activities are slowly coming to an end, the Christmas Tree is ready to be taken down and the house is in need of a major post holiday clean-up, I thought I'll give my New Year's Resolutions a shot. CBC Radio had a few good pieces on making and keeping resolutions this week and I felt somewhat smug thinking I did good on last year's set. So here are my 2013 goals and how I did for the past year:.

Turtlepace: Hot Pepper Jelly
http://turtlepacerun.blogspot.com/2013/09/hot-pepper-jelly.html
Monday, September 16, 2013. For the last month or so I have been getting the "warnings" from the family, that "we are almost out of Mama's Special Hot Sauce". Mama's Special Hot Sauce aka Hot Pepper Jelly is a favourite around our dinner table and comes out of the fridge almost every night. Whipped up a new batch last night. Unlike in previous years, I used powered pectin as I only had one package of the liquid left and couldn't find more at the store. Here is the recipe:. 2 packages certo pectin.

Wednesday, January 30, 2013. Interesting exchange this morning. Me, on my bike in the left turning lane at the red light at the bottom of Fell, preparing to turn left onto Marine. A couple of cars are ahead of me. My lights are flashing, I am wearing my yellow biker uniform. It's still darkish, but not raining. Did your mama not teach you that cycling in traffic like that is dangerous? Proud to say that I didn't miss a beat - usually I do ;-) - and responded with:. And I kept thinking about this all day.

Sunday, May 25, 2014. Abbotsford's Run For Water. Abbotsford's Run For Water Under My Feet:. Apprehension yesterday due to injury and not putting as much training in as I had planned. Sleepless night. Afraid to miss the 4:00am alarm. Getting up that early was astoundingly easy. I had prepared a breakfast to take along and coffee for the drive. Coffee making didn't quite work out as I forgot to put the lid on the automatic coffee maker. Ended up with an interesting brew. What a nice little marathon. Havin...

Saturday, September 22, 2012. Fairmont Road Hot Pepper Jelly. This has been a family favourite.

Saturday, September 08, 2012. This summer I rekindled an old love. No, old Jackson has nothing to fear, this relationship is strictly platonic. For years...

Wednesday, March 28, 2012. Spring break. a few days off work and unsuccessful in motivating the teens in the house to do something memorable. What better to do than abandon the teens and dig a snow cave on a. Once the decision was made, we piled our gear haphazardly into the overnight backpacks hoping not to forget essential items. It's been a while that we backpacked and we left with the nagging feeling that we did leave something important behind. The kids, perhaps? Earlier. As a little girl, every...
