Exactly six months into living in England and I had my first cup of tea. When I worked at the bakery I used to make tea for customers a hundred times a day, but I never had one myself. Whenever I was presented with the choice of a hot beverage I always opted for hot chocolate (or drinking chocolate, as the English call it). But … Continue reading My First Cuppa

Today is daylight savings time again. But this time I have remembered and already changed my clocks. I will not be victim to the time change again. In October I found myself 2 hours early for work, but since I have prepared, if I am lucky I will only be 5 minutes early for work tomorrow!

I had another dream. This one was action packed. And it took place in Barrie, of all places. If you went to high school with me, hopefully you can perfectly visualize parts of this dream the way I did.
