Plenty of Canada Geese, Mallard Ducks and this Common Merganser duck with its rust colored head and red bill.
The wind was brisk and I was glad that I worn layers because it was cool and gusty.
My first time this year.
Even back to Christmas we were looking for broken pieces so we could get them all into a large order. My niece delivered some a while back as well.
The blue lid was a purchase and it cost dearly as the original lid has been discontinued. This lid works but is from another bowl. Glad to have it.
I may have been to the Sicilian Pasta Kitchen once before.
We shared a salad and a pasta dish and it was super delicious. We ate it all because there was not really enough leftover for take away container.
It was a great idea to share so we got veggies and pasta.
A nice visit on top of the great food.
Autumn Divac has been searching for her husband for 18 months. He disappeared in Europe under some mysterious circumstances. Her teenagers need a break so she heads to the town she grew up in where her Mom and aunt run a bookstore on the beach. She has great memories of the place.
There is great time for family but teenagers have their own ways so there is making friends and connecting with people their own age. The daughter finds a supportive friend to get her through her crisis and the son finds a man who can provide male role model that he is missing.
The ending was very surprising for all the parties. Autumn and her husband, the old boyfriend, the new teenagers discovered. Great read.
I headed to the Legislature Grounds for an early morning walk. The first this year.
The morning was cool but less wind that early this week.
It was donated by British Columbia First Nations to mark the 100th anniversary of that province joining confederation.
