A photo to set the scene.   We had a small stockpile of cooked mud crabs in the fridge.  Small because both of us had been eating a crab for lunch each and every day!  As Budget Daughter said when she was only two years of age and we were eating our way  through a Continue reading

Montreal is a fantastic city and the Plateau District was possibly my favourite part of Montreal.  OK, I will commit myself and say it was definitely my favourite.  It was an arty kind of place back in 2010 and I am sure it still is.  A little bit East Villagey (I am not sure Villagey Continue reading

This Fantastic Friday post is for the many people around the world who eat fish for dinner every Friday.

When I think about our Spain, Morocco and LISBON journey in 2012, my packing fingers get itchy. Our 2.5 weeks house and dog sitting experience in the hills an hour from Granada was a dream.  LULU the heart stealing dog was our charge, or was that the other way around?  In any case I for Continue reading

We just happened to be walking by on our way to Galata Bridge and I noticed the yellow taxis and yellow lights of the New Mosque in Istanbul. I say New, but that is just a name. It is actually well over 400 years old.  Yep it’s birthday was way back in 1597.  Hides it’s Continue reading
