We all get this: “Eat your vegetables!” to which the likely answer is: “Nah, better give me another chicken wing!”. And that is where the problems start… Oh well, to make your life a little easier, I decided to serve you a healthy dose of vegetables in just one post.
No gassed or poisoned veggies here, all natural and nearly ready for consumption.
We all know that winters in Winnipeg are cold. I wouldn’t even say “can be cold”… But do we all stay hunkered inside until the cold passes? NO WAY! Although my tobogganing days are past, the kids of today still go downhill on their magic carpets as fast as they can.
Skating? Of course! Snow boarding? Sure! And all that with the frigid winter climate we have here? We are Canadians, right? No whining about the temps, please! Ok, I am not completely Canadian yet, I need a few more freezes for that, heh

The festive days are now behind us. The good resolutions for the New Year almost forgotten, the chocolate-induced stomach aches a distant memory. So what is then left in this period of the year?
The Dark days before Christmas, they say. But in fact after the festivities of Christmas and New Year (and for some Christmas again…), the days seem way darker, way colder and way more hostile to human life. You only have to put your head outside and feel the wind chill of –43 to know that now is not the time to go outside and enjoy the weather. But is it all that dark and cold?
A while back I went on a small trip to New York. I have already blogged about those trips but I still found a set of pictures that I thought might be interesting. Most of all because there is no sign of sub-zero temperatures.
Admit it, if you were to go to New York City, would you choose to go in winter? So here you have it, a few warm pictures to thaw those frozen trigger fingers…
When the weather gods decide to have some fun, they invite Old Man Winter for the ride. A cold mass of Arctic Air descended on Canada on December 28th. As a result, icy winds and blowing snow were coming down on the city as if to punish it for the nice warm summer we had had previously.
Or perhaps just to remind us of who is really in charge here. When the weather is extreme, I like to go outside and observe. What better to observe the weather with than a camera? Even better if you can get a friend to join you.
