almost packed

and now I can't find the travellers checks ... hmmm. well, we got a great rate rom the Delta Chelsea in Toronto and now we're almost ready to sit back and relaaaaaaaax. oh I cannot wait for the Niagara foods & wines as they can ONLY be prepared in SW Ontario to grace my lips! heaven. you really MUST go to that place. Don't order it in. Go. Enjoy it where it grows, where it is at home. The S&L of food. Seasonal & Local. ... wait a moment ... why is the hamster not in his cage ... ?! see you in two weeks - Katrin

Been There, Done That

if anyone asks if I have taken the overnight through the wilderness then i can say it is so. but all i wanted to do when the family had tumbled through the door and dumped suitcases was fall into a bath and splash myself with iced vodka. i think i left my head on the train. certainly sleeping there has left my neck out of joint. the way we were shunted back and forth through warsaw at midnight left me dented ... and now the question is - do the laundry and pack it immediately back into the suitcases for toronto? the kids have left theirs undone and laying in the middle of the hallway - all the holiday goodies have been ransacked leaving only their dirty clothes within the empty samsonite shells. my lovely man has found me a glass of ice and some scotch. which will have to do until we fill the fridge up again. work calls tuesday but first i have to see what the garden looks like. good nite! katrin
