Randomly, On A Wednesday

 I have fallen into a boring place lately, where nothing really blog worthy seemed to happen.

Daisy picked out a new toy for herself, for Halloween.


Because she doesn't have enough toys.

I had a very stressful time, that ended up as much ado about nothing, so I painted my nails purple.


I finished another pair of Point Edward Mitts, a necessary fall accessory.


I started another Sunshine Crossbody Bag. This one is in Cork and Laurel Burch.


The cork has sparkles!

I renewed my health card and driver's license. I had to do it in person, so they could update my picture. There was a pet store next to Service Ontario, so Daisy picked out another toy.

I have been reading Alan Doyle's latest book, "The Smiling Land". It is a trip around Newfoundland (and a bit of Labrador), so I started a new pair of socks, in the colourway "A Stroll Down Duckworth Street". Duckworth Street is a very old street in St. John's known for its multicoloured houses.


I'm on the home stretch for the first sock.

As a sign that winter is coming, I am making Shepherd;s Pie for supper (technically Cottage Pie, I've been told by purists.) So the question of the day is cream corn, tomatoes and mixed vegetables, or brown gravy? Turns out that is a very regional thing in Canada.
