Spotted at The Artful Dodger on Isabella Street

Sat under this sign gulping down water, an Oliver Twist salad and some fries before heading to see My Mother's Lesbian Jewish Wiccan Wedding at the Panasonic Theatre.

Emil noticed it once we got up and were ready to leave.   He's the only one of us who had beer with dinner!  He and Sheba are getting ready to celebrate their son's mundan tomorrow.  Clearly this sign does not apply to him.   :)

If you live in Toronto, check out My Mother's Lesbian Jewish Wiccan Wedding.  It's an autobiographical musical about a man whose mom leaves his Dad, falls in love with a witch and rediscovers her Jewish faith.  Everything ends wonderfully in an eclectic wedding!  There was something about the narration that reminded me of Fred Savage in The Wonder Years.  Where else will you hear lyrics that include words like Saskatchewan, port-o-potty, Svend Robinson and IUD?  It's cute, Canadian and quite funny!

This photo was taken on Riaz's 2nd birthday.  Not sure where but I know it's somewhere in Toronto.

I look at it and it makes me laugh....from my belly...out loud!!!

Every expression is priceless. 

Old School - November 20, 2009

Book club has just wrapped up for November.  This month, we all read Aravind Adiga's The White Tiger.  The ladies have all left and I cannot help but give thanks.

Thank you to the five lovely ladies who I had the pleasure of spending this evening with...

Marta - This woman knows the best desserts in town.  Tonight she brought a Dulce De Leche cake from She Takes the Cake.  It was my first time trying this amazing sweet treat.  Heavenly, heavenly, heavenly.  Apparently she's got an amazing chocolate cake to unleash upon us when it's her turn to host in January.  Can't wait!

Sylvie - She's been making some pretty big decisions lately and I have to applaud the way she's been handling them with logic and patience.  Way to go girl!

Makeda - Next time I see her, I am going to count the minutes in between laughter. I am pretty sure not more than two or three minutes go by without her making you laugh out loud!

Sheba - There are no words.  How do you possibly give thanks for someone who gives you their shoulder, their heart and their unconditional love on a daily basis?

Krista and Naaz - You were missed.

Thank you for the women in my life.
