Just in case you thought that bloggers were social misfits who sit around their parents’ basements eating cold pizza while only wearing their underpants (categoriacally not true no matter what rumopurs you may have heard or read in the blogosphere) get a load of the important discussion taking place on one of my blogger colleague’s blog; […]

Thoughts on Food and the Food Network
A couple thoughts on food this evening. First, if the Food Network was run by real people instead of master chefs who pretend to be everyday yobs, Blogger Dad would be the star of the show. Blogger Dad is now, essentially, running a cooking school. The first lesson he has put together is a detailed […]
A New Link to the Blogger Dad Blog
I found a little gem of a blog this evening. I typed “Blogger Dad” into Google and the first hit was for www.bloggerdad.com. And he is cool and funny! It is such a treat to see another father out here blogging. It seems like every other mother has a blog, but it is tougher to […]
Beautiful margerhita pizza from @wildflourpizzaco in Burnaby.
I love my sourdough so when @beyondtherhetoric told me these guys are doing a sourdough pizza crust - I knew I had to try it.
In brief, I loved it. I loved it so much I wrote a blog post about it! Blog will go up Friday morning.

Last week the kids and I went back to @kumsheenrafting and did another half day on the Thompson River.
We hit some epic waves and definitely got wet on this river run!
Something people may not be aware of - the river is way more fun when there’s a lower volume of water in it - like there is in August and early September.
So many people think the river is “wild” during the big water of the spring run-off. Surprise! The best runs are NOW!
Definitely a good time on the river AGAIN.
Photo credit @kumsheenrafting seeing as I was on the raft loving every minute of it.

The skies were in a mood last night above Botanie Lake.

In life, timing is everything. I popped into @doughnutlove.ca today just as they were closing up and they had one last ice cream sandwich doughnut left. So of course I said yes!
They slice open a doughnut and carefully place a scoop of @rockypointicecream between the slices of doughnut.
These special treats are an “in the moment” kinda thing. The ice cream softens up really quickly making it a perfectly squishable sandwich.
Just what I needed on this ridiculously hot day. An ice cream sandwich doughnut.

I finally made it to the Sugar Shack in 70 Mile House! I first tried their poutine from their food truck a couple of years ago and now today, I’m back.
I had the Montreal Smoked meat sandwich and a full order of poutine. When it first arrived at the table I thought it looked small. And then I started eating. And eating. And eating.
It’s a lot of good! A lot of GOOD food. I don’t know when I’ll be back only because it is a long way off my usual travels but know that when I do travel this way again, I’ll be eating at the Sugar Shack in 70 Mile House.

Well we did it. Blonde Bear and I went to Lytton and visited our friends @kumsheenrafting for an afternoon of fun on the Thompson River.
Our river guide did not disappoint! He took us into the big water so that we all got thoroughly soaked making everyone happy.
The waves on the Thompson are getting better everyday as the water drops. Big holes are starting to really open up making for some exciting rides.
If you be want to have some summer fun and support a Lytton business, check @kumsheenrafting for available dates.
