Super Bowl Party Recipes

Wendy went through The Cooking Blog and put together a list of the best Super Bowl Party recipes she could find.  If you are throwing a party next weekend, these are worth checking out.

Resolutions

Wendy posted her New Year’s Resolutions so I thought I would post mine. Take the stairs to the top of The Lighthouse at least daily.  This seems like a really good idea now that building is only four stories but when the new tower is nine stories this summer, it could be a really bad [...]

Christmas 2011

I hope everyone had a great Christmas.  After a daring battery run to Walmart on Saturday morning, we met up with the Sieberts for coffee/tea and to exchange gifts and Christmas cheer.  After that we headed out to Warman to Lee and Brittany’s place for Christmas Eve dinner to open gifts.  Wendy talked about the [...]

Around here

Wendy blogs a bit about how sick I have been and also mentions that it is her birthday today.  She is sick as well so if you have time, wish her a happy birthday on her blog.

What’s next is next

When I resigned from the Salvation Army, I didn’t really have a plan or a job to go to so I’ll let you read into that all you want.  It was a pretty sudden decision but it was time to move to something else.  After years of being on call 24.7, I wasn’t sleeping well [...]

2011 Christmas Gift Ideas for Your Husband/Boyfriend/Men in Your Life

It’s Wendy again and I am pretty lucky as Jordon does all of the Christmas shopping in our family and over the years he has created some incredible gift guides for his website which have generated a loyal following.  I traditionally write the Gift Guide husbands/boyfriends/fathers and this year I get to kick off the [...]

Samsung Galaxy Ace

My Blackberry Curve was my first smartphone and I really liked it.  I was planning to upgrade it this year to a new Blackberry Curve while RIM was making better hardware, they seemed to drop the ball on getting their new software out.  As I have written on Twitter, I had planned to go out [...]

Andrew Jones makes me feel really old

Andrew looks back a decade at some of the original theological bloggers and finds out what we are up to.  It’s funny to think I am indirectly responsible for three of the people on that list.

The end is near

This isn’t another post about Harold Camping but about the end of Barnes & Noble It’s been one of the more puzzling aspects of Barnes & Noble‘s move into the future: Why are they giving up thousands of square feet of prime bookselling space — the area just inside of entrances, which have the highest [...]

The weekend

Wendy writes about our weekend on the cabin weblog.  It was a weekend of good books, Chuck E. Cheese, some lacrosse, coffee, and a dog that wouldn’t get out of the bed and a son that wouldn’t stop trying to get back in.  Oh right, this happened. As you can see, it was going good and [...]

Occupy Saskatoon

After reading a media report that Occupy Saskatoon were housing all sorts of homeless people at Friendship Park, myself, Wendy, and Bert (our caseworker) wandered down their protest.  There was only one homeless person being helped and he wasn’t around so we chatted a bit, took some photos, and then I had to head back [...]

Early anniversary gift

I had wanted to upgrade Wendy’s Samsung Link for a while now as Virgin Mobile has had some entry level Android smartphones out for a while.  Every time I went out and looked, they were sold out.  I finally tracked one down today at Best Buy and decided to pick up a Samsung Galaxy 550.  [...]

It’s Monday

The weekend that was: It was all football.  Mark had a practice on Saturday and a game on Sunday (they lost).  We did go and check out Larry’s Skate Exchange on Saturday.  We also managed to buy some Taber Corn on the last weekend they are open.  Wendy had never had it before and she [...]

Mark

I haven’t been posting much here about what’s going around the house but Wendy has a couple of posts about Mark.  The big news with Mark is that he is playing pee wee football for the Babineau Warriors in the Kinsmen Football League.  In real terms it means that instead of coming home from work, [...]

My week in review

On Sunday I decided to take the family to Waskesiu for the day.  We drove up through Prince Albert, past the Prince Albert Penitentiary and Riverbend Institution (Wendy was curious over where the Salvation Army has our prison barbecue) and then to Waskesiu (Mark thought we were headed to the cabin via Regina but in [...]
