Here we are Week 46 was spent stocking up on Christmas booze and cards and having a dinner party. We received a nice surprise in the form of a painting of our deli in Vancouver, done by Tim’s dad. Week 46 also means only 6 weeks left to 2013, I know, it’s shocking! How did […]
The Off-Season, Nat’s First Time and Stew – SEALING PASTE
The off-season in a summer town A few weeks ago we were in Parksville-Qualicum Beach, a popular summer destination.
