  Capital Letters Life, Thoughts | (15)

  I know it's really silly, but one of my pet peeves is people who don't use capital letters and use them properly. Like those who don't write their own name using a capital letter at the beginning. My name is Beatriz Dominguez, because that's the way the rules are (and I have to learn some of that too). But even more pet peevish is receiving an e-mail from someone who doesn't know how to fill the "From" field with their proper name using these simply to type capital letters... Ugh! I know, silly. Why can't everyone have a decent "From" ...

  Follow your Instinct, Always! Life | (5)

  I love lentils, especially lentil soup, a very traditional recipe from the part of Colombia I come from. So, once in a while I prepare the lentil soup here and fortunately Patrice likes it too :-) But somehow I felt I had to master the darn recipe and make it taste like my mom's own; I went to looking for it online, found one that seemed just like hers and last night I left the lentils in water and cooked them this morning... The result? Good (I guess), but not as good as it has been when I cook them ...

  Cuddling Weather Life | (7)

  I cannot complain about my weekend. Had a great time last night chez Jacques; we saw the photos from the vacation he and my MIL had in New Jersey and NYC. He's a teacher, so each picture came with a story written under and after taking a look at the album we had to pass a little test. We scored 100% and received a prize: One really cool watercolor of Brodway st. along with a book of the Quebec slang for me... he he he! After the photos, we played games, eat some chips, had some drinks, and talked :smile: ...

  Beautiful Autumn Day Life | (2)

  For a moment like this Some people wait a lifetime, For a moment like this Some people search forever, For that one special kiss... Oh, I can't believe it's happening to me Some people wait a lifetime, For a moment like this. (Kelly Clarkson) It's gorgeous outside, a little bit chilly but lots of sunshine and blue skies. I love autumn :smile: I woke up late and all I've done today is talking with Patrice about life, about us. Sometimes that is necessary to make relationships even better... Ours grows everyday. I'm so in love with my hubby, his sensibility, his thoughtfulness, his generosity, his support. We're going out ...

  Soirée PartyLite Life | (2)

  Long week of work, the meeting with the consul last night (I'll write more about it later, but it was GREAT!). We finished work today around 3 p.m. and without learning anything from last week's indigestion episode, we went for take-out at St-Hubert; I just made sure NOT to eat the salad, but the chicken sandwich with Swiss cheese was yunmy! So, we get home at 4 and something and I get ready for the weekend. A little bit upset with my poor husband for reasons I won't discuss here (in Spanish we say that you do your own laundry at ...
