The weather is mediocre so me and my sis are staying in to cook today! Right now I’ve got some yummy challah bread rising and my sister is making chocolate mousse. I’m making a veggie quiche for dinner as well. Hmmm, what else can we make? Any suggestions??

My favourite cookbook of all time is “The Enchanted Broccoli Forest” by Mollie Katzen. It’s all vegetarian and I highly recommend it.

I’ve inexplicably got no voice today! So silly…

EDITED TO ADD PICS: Kerri this is just for you! Enjoy!

Let me introduce you to my latest TV obsession: Murdoch Mystery. My sister, who has a good nose for these things, a and a wee obsession with the 19th century, introduced it to me when I got home from school. It’s a Canadian show and is set in Toronto. It features Detective William Murdoch, who solves murder mysteries with his unconventional methods (think a kinder, century-old version of House).

The best part of the show, however, is Dr. Julia Ogden, the pathologist and mortician. We love Dr. Ogden! She’s so brainy! And cool! Women in science, ftw!

Anyway, it comes on on Wednesday and Sunday nights on CITY for my little Canucks out there.

While yesterday’s post was important to me, I also want to get a happier one to the top of the page. I just got back from dance practice, and even though I’m coughing up weird stuff and my legs are jelloid, I feel so so SO good. Endorphins. Yes, I feel very good and I had a nice day despite the SNOW and RAIN :)

My very favourite fiddler, Oliver Schroer, is a real Canadian gem. I just got myself one of his older CDs today. He very sadly died of leukemia last year. I promise you, this is some of the most stirring music ever created, just listen for a bit:

I just had my very last Monday of 2nd year. Woah, we are cooking along, maybe even a little too quickly for my taste? Ah, time.
