My iPod Touch sock =) 

It comes with me everywhere now that I am commuting all the time.

Picture Me Wednesday - Shakespeare

Photo taken by Ms. C.

Why Shakespeare, you ask?  A few months ago I visited Stratford-Upon-Avon with E.  I absolutely *loved* my stay in Stratford - which is incidentally the city of Shakespeare's origins.  I bought this pin from the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust.  Quoted here is a famous line from Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream. 

Picture Me Wednesday - Yarn

I haven't written a Picture Me Wednesday post for awhile now.... and I think it's high time I bring it back to the blogging world.  Below is a little glimpse of what my hands have been busy creating when I'm not typing out book reviews...

 

 

  My knitting project.  One day (hopefully soon!) all of this yarn will be a nice, long, and cozy ribbed  scarf =)

Do you write in your books?

I like to record information.

Who? What? Where? When?
I like to cover all the bases.
I guess where my books originate from are no exception in my 'must record information' mind.

When a book comes from a special place, from a special someone, or from a special moment in history, I like to record it all down in its margins.

I'm the graduate this afternoon!
I've waited a long, long time... but finally *today* is the day.
Yayy!

If I could go anywhere right now......... I'd go here:

Picture Me Wednesday - 2011 Week 14

E and I visited Poland in early April. I had no idea what to expect when we entered this country. Most of our time was spent in Krakow, Poland's former capital. It's a beautiful (and very old) city peppered with cobblestones, narrow streets, 14th century buildings, and brightly coloured walls.

Picture Me Wednesday - 2011 Week 13

As you may know, I've been in the UK for awhile now. Due to differences in power wattage (and not wanting to fry my electronic devices), I haven't been able to upload photos. But, I'll soon be trading the Atlantic Ocean for my hometown waters of the Pacific (pictured here). This photo reminds me of my oh-so-far-away home.

Picture Me Wednesday - 2011 Week 12

When I stumbled across this scene a few months ago I knew I had to take a picture. Torrential rains, the city lit up, and a fountain glowing nearby... BC.

And, I must say, so much different from where I currently am stationed... warm, sunny, and cheery England at Spring.

This picture pretty much sums it up: I love Coach... and love... and handwritten letters. I received this handbag as a present a few months ago and had to add the 'love letter' accessory. It may be a bit hard to see, but the white rectangle behind the 'love' is a model of a letter's envelop.

Just looking at this handbag makes me smile :)

This cafe is way too cute.

A little known personal fact?
I'm addicted to pickles.

Picture Me Wednesday - 2011 Week 9

Flashbacks of photos from last week?
That's because these photos were captured at the same time and depict flowers from the same bouquet.
What can I say?
I love, l-o-v-e, love the texture on these gerberas!

Bring on April!

Picture Me Wednesday - 2011 Week 7

The most bookish Picture Me Wednesday to date...

Last week I blogged about my love for Jojo Moyes The Last Letter from Your Lover which just so happens to not be sold in Canada or America. But, I had a special delivery sitting on the kitchen table when I came home from work this Monday. E, my wonderful Englishman, seems to have read my blog and promptly sent me a copy of my new favourite book. I am so delighted that I can now add this book to my 'real life' bookshelf!
Thanks so much, E!

Picture Me Wednesday - 2011 Week 6

As I was walking around the city a few weeks ago I stumbled across this fountain. I'm not even sure what the story behind this artwork is... but it looked so beautiful as the sun highlighted its golden elements and cascading water that I had to take a photo.
Enjoy!

I'm an eh-speaking, all-around Canadian girl who loves her national sport.


These are my 'boys in blue.' This was taken during the last game I attended in January 2011. Recent Canuck news? We're still holding number one position in the ranks and Luongo (our goalie and my favourite player) just scored his 300th win. Bring on the playoffs!
