Friday, August 14, 2015. Gardens at Government House, Victoria. The gardens at Government House. In Victoria, British Columbia, are a delight. There are not one, but two, rose gardens! There are ponds, winding paths, forested areas, a herb garden, and so much more. For tea and a visit to the Costume Museum. Monday, August 10, 2015. Flavourful Saskatoon, August 10, 2015. Riversdale District is hosting YXEats.

Documenting travels, adventures and good eats. Another year under the belt, and unlike the last 26 years of my life, I mulled over this day. YOU You, have made a difference in my life and I thank you.

Without adventures, life is just about survival. Like most large cities, Dublin has a number of homeless people. I was approached numerous times by people asking for spare change. Most Irish people just ignore them and keep walking. The Irish also tend to ignore people protesting and trying to get them to sign petitions on the street. It is really just like most cities in that regard.

Saturday, August 1, 2015. Having never taken a cooking class, outside of a Home Economics class in school approximately a bazillion years ago, I learned most of what I know of cooking by watching my mother and grandmother cook. some of those memories go back to before grade school.
