An English girl in Vancouver. A taste of NaNoWriMo. Constant gardeners →. March 1, 2011. Than you or I might. On the ice laden sidewalk. Leads him to the hardware store. Risking life, and limb. Lying desperate for dismemberment. Or a frozen elder. Faced with intractable logs. Maybe it is just youth. The illusion of freedom. On the surface of being. Soaring before the wax melts;. Unrequited lust for danger. A moment of grace granted. Held by faith alone. Lest the blade falls. View all posts by Helen →.

Cooking and Screaming: Spinach? Ew! Right?
http://cookingscreaming.blogspot.com/2011/02/spinach-ew-right.html
Kitchen trials of a reluctant, recalcitrant, recidivist domestic goddess. February 22, 2011. Leaves. are kind of 'ew'. Until yesterday, that is. When I discovered a cooked spinach dish - in which the spinach is identifiable - that I love. It's called Sautéed Arugula and Spinach with Paneer and Roasted Cashews. And it's from the Appetizers and Salads section of Vij's Elegant and Inspired Indian Cuisine. A cookbook that My Beloved and I bought (along with a m asala dabba. Well, actually at Vij's Rangoli.

Constant gardeners | West Coast Adventures
https://livesofvancouver.wordpress.com/2011/03/24/constant-gardeners
An English girl in Vancouver. March 24, 2011. Bringing some scant warmth. Finally to the exotic flowers and. The byways of suburbia. Each frontage gardened and honed. Owners flit from door to SUV. Harmonised, with ease. In my yard raccoons. Have dug ugly clumps mangling the grass. A scrap of litter is lodged beneath a bare rose thorn. And spring daffs are adorned with an angry stick. Planted by a raging child. I know I let my own weeds grow. Their constant gardening steals my silence, anyway.

An English girl in Vancouver. Sunday, Alma Street. A taste of NaNoWriMo →. July 25, 2010. The marijuana was not her biggest headache, we both agreed. Nor was the Asian gangster buying up grow houses and illegally stealing electricity under an assumed name (all paid for, in due course, via a mysterious transfer from a bank in Richmond). No, it was the policeman who caught the guy who got her riled. View all posts by Helen →. This entry was posted in People. And tagged British Columbia. Sunday, Alma Street.

I see nothing as we climb, surrounded in fog, the metal chairs clanking and our feet dangling, heavy with skis. Helga is talking knowledgeably with a guy visiting for a bachelor party I can tell she is cautious in her advice. We are through, and on the other side of the unknown, there is a ride waiting for us all. British Columbia. Blackcomb. February 18, 2010.
