BJS's latest entry
Port, Switzerland
The last couple months have flown by. We got to hang out with 3 different sets of visitors which was so much fun to share adventures, observations and group meals with good friends and family. For me, it was especially nice to do this all in English for a change. That's one thing I really miss is joking and telling (semi-) interesting …
Adele Love your ‘no-news’ news!! Snippets of daily living is always the best - especially if there’s snot thrown in !!
re: Miscellaneous anecdotes over winterSonja Dasiuk You had me in stitches with all your layers of clothing and sweating! Poor you! I'd have overheated for sure! Monday sounded like a beautiful ski day and loads of fun! We've just wrapped up over 2 weeks of more than -20 degrees each day in Calgary. Beyond cold and dreary unfortunately. We are so tired of being cold and cooped up indoors. No one wants to go out. All the indoor businesses are thrilled. We played mini-golf indoors and bowled on Sunday for some fun. Thank goodness today warmed up to -4 .... balmly indeed! And just like that another year flies by - Mikayla is now 18 (and all the celebrations that come with that) and Justin just celebrated his 22 birthday. Thinking of you and wishing you all the best. Happy days! xoxo
re: Ski VacationSonja Dasiuk Great storytelling and best wishes finding balance between work, home, family and cooking! P.S. I always resort to pancakes for dinner if I'm out of ideas :) Love and miss you all! xoxo

re: Cozy!Sandi Laughing yes, and always smiling. Sorry I don't write or comment more. Know I'm here checking in on you when I can and enjoying living vicariously through your adventures. Have a great day!!
re: Ski VacationAdele Laughed out loud once more while reading your opening paragraph! You guys always make winter look so awesome ... and even I, sitting here under the hot African sky, am tempted to experience just one more winter! Loved reading about Sophie’s real life enactments and can almost picture it. Glad you’re documenting all of this as it will be priceless in years to come.
re: Ski VacationAdele I love this so much and have read it a number of times! Sitting in a pub in Wilderness South Africa I read it once more with Ken. We both had such a good laugh at your antics. I will dig deep to see if I can come up with a decent 3-ingredient recipe - something I think I need right about now!!
re: Setting the bar lowErin Lillywhite Happy New Year Sophie and family! We had fun tonight looking at all your videos, photos and blog. Sadie wants to come and visit right away and also would like to have some goats for neighbours. Here’s to an exciting 2019!!
re: Happy New YearChris That was so funny! I was initially a little alarmed that JK is turning on the tube, but I assume it is to help improve his German? I can offer a suggestion for the quick meal: black beans, corn, cheese, salsa. It’s really 3 ingredients plus a condiment. If you are feeling fancy you can add throw some tortilla chips on the side.
