I recently discovered frozen (and then thawed) tofu and it's INCREDIBLE. Definitely one of my favorite things to cook with now, and I keep at least two blocks in my freezer at all times.
12/10, would recommend if you haven't tried it yet! 🍜

I’m so sick 🤧 that I don’t even have the energy to dig around in the freezer for the chicken soup I made for exactly this moment 😞.

I wish someone would start a news network with no Trump news. It's very difficult to find out what is happening in the world without being bombarded with the buffoon's news.

My friend told me she always bakes muffins with her leftover cranberry sauce, and I was amazed that had never occurred to me.
So I looked up a recipe for cranberry coffee cake. Will be trying that tomorrow.

The encounter that took what was already a great #BearSeason2025 right over the top. Arctic foxes are not the easiest to find around Churchill so getting to spend time with this cutie who is still changing into their winter coat was amazing. #mammals 🌿

Along the fence-line. I usually focus my camera on wildlife, but I also can’t resist a striking landscape view #ArtAdventCalendar

While out walking yesterday, we passed this young fella at the side of the path just lying there chewing and watching us mostly nonchalantly #Penticton

Is anyone else in Canada frustrated with trying to watch all the episodes of All Her Fault? We did a free trial of Stack TV (garbage streaming service) and it got us to episode 5…. 😩

We really try to shop locally instead of ordering from you-know-where, but wandering aisle after aisle in Canadian Tire and Rona and not finding what you want (or anyone to help you find it) is so demoralizing and exhausting 😞.

I think we could all use a polar bear cuddle pile to brighten up our timeline. These two cubs are about 11 months old and will stay with mom until 2.5-3 years. #BearSeason2025 #Mammals 🌿
