Breakfast Pita's

I have a new found love for breakfast pitas. I just had one for lunch (with my spinach salad) toasted with a little magarine on it. and i must say YUMMY - although not as good as the beef at the wine and food... but you can't have beef everyday (or could you....???)

Moo

Today I went over to Carolyn and Rob’s place and not only did I score an amazing dinner, but I also got to go visit the COWS!!! I’m sure most of you are confused by my fascination with cows, and probably think that I’m just BS’g you all, but really… I think cows are great! Not just for the leather, the meat and the chocolate milk, but look how cute they are!!! This was just the best day! I went shopping (fabulous deals at la vie en rose!), and visited not one farm, but two farms!

The first picture is me and Teri Cow. She is around 1 and a half right now. She has dark brown hair and little horns that will grow a bit more.



The next picture is me and the baby cows. This cow is around 2 weeks old and SOOO CUTE!!! Teri Cow sooo cute, but I also have a weakness for baby Holsteins.



After visiting the cows, I didn't even care that i smelled like a farm!

Drinks drinks and more drinks - and some beef

Today was a busy day in the world of Teri. Started out with sleeping till 12:00… then some wine and food at the Congress Centre. What can I say??? Drunk by 1:30 and HAMMMMMEERRED by oh, 2:00. I give a huge shout out to the Alberta Beef! Not much else to say about wine and food show, I was on a mission to find the best boxed wine… and have some front runners that I shall test out at some house parties.

The interesting story is from when I got home (still feeling the red wine) and attempt to make my kraft dinner. All was going well, till I realized I forgot about it in the kitchen… so I go in and notice that instead of cooking my KD I’m burning a hole through the cookie sheet. SMOOOTH Teri!! Smooth! But that worked out, and I got some KD to soak up the wine so that I could move onto drinking part two of the evening! :) :)

MONDAY’S GRACE!!!!!

I have written about them before, but I still stand by the fact that they are great. Went downtown with Shannon and Greg, met some friends and some new people. Lots of good times and great dancing (give me some red bull vodka’s and I’m a MACHINE!)

However… there were a few problems encountered in the evening.

  1. Shannon and I almost got into a fight with these two B!che$. stupid 19 year olds flipping their hair on me, stepping on our feet. For gods sake the dance floor was almost empty, we were standing on the side and there was TONNES of room in front of them… sooooo we may have gotten into a ‘heated discussion’… ending with them running to tell their boyfriends how horrible we were… WHATEVER we were there with the BAND! - - Shannon, next time we’ll take them!!!
  2. Then there was this horrible girl who was poking and making fun of this handicapped man who was taking a quick nap while his two friends danced!!! (I yelled at her!!!)
  3. The fashion problems are ENDLESS from this evening!!! The most important thing to mention is the girl who was wearing a white eyelet mini skirt!!! (she obviously thought that she should wear her white flowered skirt in honour of the snowfall we had today!

PS - I got to carry a piece of the drums to the car tonight… (good thing Greg didn’t know about the Kraft dinner incident, or else he may not have trusted drunk Teri with such an item!)

PPS - going to see Teri Cow tomorrow!!!!! and to the 50% off sale at la vie en rose!!! Can't wait!

The Great Canadian Cabin and the Secret Entrance

sooo on Thursday i went to the Cabin for country music and cheap rye night. I had a great time, once I figured out where the bar was. You may think this would be an easy task considering I’ve been a frequent drinker at the establishment for over 8 years, but this was not the case.

we truck on up to the front door, pull on the door a few times to discover its locked (of course no one outside bothers saying anything to us so we look wicked cool all confused). We ask someone smoking whats going on and turns out that the entrance is now on the side...

so we walk back down dalhousie, past the money mart - and back to this canopy - - which we had just walked by and were loudly saying "wow, wonder what bar this is?" (of course neither of the bouncers says 'this is the cabin').

so yeah... new look... new music and new entrance..(NO SIGN!)

And the new set up is like a holding take. You are ushered into the bar thinking… great there is only a 40 min line up. You get inside, then realize there is ANOTHER line inside to go upstairs. But at least you can drink, and at least you aren’t outside in –40 weather.

So my advice for you - - beware of the secret hidden line and don’t lose your friends on a different floor. Oh and if you are 19 keep going to the cabin on Fridays and Saturdays (simply b/c I don’t want you at my regular bars)… - - but that is for the NEXT blog entry!!!!
