Magical Star Cocktail

Today we went to Disney’s California Adventure park and had lunch with the princess at Ariel’s Grotto.  I found a little piece of Disney heaven, where they served adult drinks!  I got a fancy magical star cocktail.

Light up your celebration with X-Fusion Organic Mango and Passion Fruit Liqueur, Parrot Bay Coconut Rum, Pineapple Juice, and a souvenir Multicolored glow Cube

Molly the Owl

In local California news, there is a barn owl in San Marcos, CA who is now world renowned.  Since February, she has a webcam set up on her, capturing her laying eggs last month, to their recent hatching.  Her name is Molly.

You can watch Molly, and read more about her, her mate McGee, and their hatchlings, here. http://www.ustream.tv/theowlbox#more

Coconuts

If you were a nut, what kind of nut would you be?

Lots of coconuts at the store here.

Inside the Lego castle.

What does a fox sound like?

I didn’t know what a fox sounds like, so I googled “youtube fox sounds”.

State of Perpetual Mourning

If you were the betting kind, it would be safe to bet on any given day
that I will be dressed in black.

In an attempt to fuse more colour into my wardrobe, I tried on a bunch
of colourful garments. I come home with 5 new pieces, every one in
black. I tried so hard to find colour but the pieces I that fit best
didn't come in other colours. I tried!

It all started with a black cat

I found cat bottles, filled with wine – Moselland Riesling.  Initially, I was going to get the black one, because the empty bottle would make a nice decoration in my bedroom.  Then, I saw the pink bottle… how can a girl decided?  Who says she has to… I took home both!

Scheduled Insurance Coverage

I think I need to schedule insurance coverage on my nail polish collection.  I now have 89 different colours (not including the ones Amanda got me for Christmas, because I stuck those in a “safe place” that was even too safe for me to find).  When I usually spend $10-15 on a bottle, it really adds up!

For the love of ManGlaze

It’s totally not my style to be posting an advertisement like this in order to win a contest, but I really want to try out this ManGlaze nail polish (check out the kick ass bottle!)… There is a product giveway on one of the nail polish blogs I follow, and I’m hoping to win it.  Click the picture for more details.

Who pissed off the garbage man?

I came home last night to find the garbage bin in the middle of the
driveway. It is still sitting there this morning.

There are no tracks in the snow so it wasn't pushed over. The garbage
truck would have had to set it down there.

Overheard at the mall

Sitting in the food court, I just over heard a teenage girl schooling
her gal pals about vegetarians.

Teen: My aunt is a vegetarian. She only eats chicken. She said that
since it's ok to eat eggs, it is also safe to eat the chicken, because
eggs come from chickens.

New Favourite Blue

Blue has been my favourite colour to paint my nails lately.  To be more precise, Sea? I Told You! by OPI has been my favourite.  So much so that the bottle is nearly empty! 

I went to buy another bottle, but I accidentally grabbed Teal the Cows Come Home.  To the average eye it looks the same, but as soon as I got home and pulled the bottle out of the bag I knew I didn’t have the right one.  Out I went in search of Sea? I Told You… Can’t find it.

Enter Absolutely Alice. I had read about the new colour online and thought that it might be nice, but I wasn’t crazy for all the sparkly flakes it in.  Normally they annoy me to wear them.  But I bought it anyway and it has become my new favourite! 

It’s a nice sparkly mix of blue, black and gold.  (inspired by Alice’s blue dress and golden locks.) I’m a silver girl, not a gold girl, but the gold blends in so well that all you see is sparkles!  The picture doesn’t do it justice.

Here is a link to some better pictures of the colour.  I also have Mad As a Hatter.

Brrr! Did I say Brrr because I meant Brrrrrrr

Article from the Edmonton Metro

Frigid temperatures recorded yesterday shattered records set in previous years, marking the coldest Dec. 13 in Edmonton’s history.

The temperature at the Edmonton International Airport dipped to -46.1 C at its lowest point, smashing the -36.1 C record set in 2008, Environment Canada meteorologist David Schmidt said yesterday.

“It was a chilly one,” he said.


The Edmonton City Centre Airport recorded -36.6 C yesterday, beating the previous record of -32.8 C set in 1882.


“We’re probably experiencing the coldest temperatures we’ll see for the next little while,” he said.


Thankfully, Schmidt added, the season’s icy grip will ease by mid-week when the  Arctic high-pressure area dominating weather over the Prairies will shift to a Pacific stream.


Temperatures will level out by Friday, likely reaching minus single-digits.
The all-time record at the International Airport was set in January 1972, when the mercury fell to -48.3C.


“We almost beat it — just within the two-degree range,” Schmidt said.
Edmonton was the coldest place in the world yesterday, second only to a Siberian weather station, where temperatures reached -48 C.
