Winter Doesn't Have to be Awful

Just because winter is an ugly time doesn't mean that we have to be.    Instead of wearing a few choice pieces from your closet, wear them all at the same time and slap some blush on your nose.  There.  Now you look cozy and inspire just a little pity (like a shivering child or a homeless person).  Something else to think about: fur.  This is Canada, this winter thing happens every year.  Get it together, people.  Put some effort in.  If we have to look at a bleak blanket of white and grey and brown, at least let's not look like we're dead.

Let the Countdown Begin!

Fa la la la laaaaa la la la la.

And we're back! ...Maybe

I have been getting hassled lately about not posting since May.  Which is chronicles of ridic(ulous) because I started this blog for Selfish Reasons, and didn't expect anybody to look at it.  I certainly wasn't expecting flack for being a newlywed.  Listen people: newlyweds are busy.  We have nests to build.  We have a new roommate who has a degree in Linguistics, but keeps putting the milk in the cupboard.  We're apparently supposed to not leave the house because all we want to do is Have The Sex and stare into eachother's eyes in wonder.  But guess what:

NEXT TIME:  Keeping Winter Real (aka not ugly)

Changing your mind is allowed.

You know what, no.  I'm going to keep this blog incase Warren gets annoying or I get hormonal and need a special place to come hang out.  We'll just have a brand new blog for photos:

fentonphotography.blogspot.com  (But don't go there yet.  It's not ready. It sucks.)

There.  Now everybody's happy.  Now everybody gets what they want.

Fentons x 2

This blog is about to get an update.  What appears to have happened is that we got married and got boring (see below).

NOT SO: we've just been really busy growing a tiny photography biddness.  So instead of a lifestyle/wifestyle blog, this will (I imagine) turn into a photography blog featuring delicious pictures made by us for your eyes to feast upon. It will also feature posts by Warren.

Get pumped!

 You won't look like this when scrolling the new blog.  Or maybe you will.  We don't care.

Three Boars Eatery

Edmonton has an adorable new restaurant that just opened up by our house.  Three Boars has the most unreal assortment of fresh and scrumptious things to share with your favourite humans. Warren and I destroyed some crispy little foie gras, a poutine with three kinds of bacon (!), and a tiny s'more cake that was baked into a cup with homemade marshmallow. (I love marshmallows.)

Plus the lighting is delicious, too.

Sleepy May Weekend

Today has been such a sweet, drowsy day.  Perfect for tea and a waffle.

Late Night Picnic

I stayed home with a migraine today, and by the time I woke up (supper time, woof), it was chicken nugget time.  It's still too cold outside for a real-life picnic, so we made do in the bedroom.

Gotta use that picnic blanket we got as a wedding present somehow.

We've been watching a lot of Walking Dead lately.

Damn. That face.

1o1

To celebrate my 1O1st post, I'm going to show you the five year old I live with:

Some of his favourite things include:

1. Going fast

2. Eating chicken nuggets

3 Getting dirty. 

children (of the corn)

Warren and I get asked pretty (very) frequently if we are having kids yet.  And this blog is the first thing that pops into my head when I get asked that question.
