Well I just had the most fruitless search for a new bathing suit.  Sears had this big ad in the paper about all their swim wear 50% off.  I drive across town and go to check it out.  They had maybe 5 matching top and bottoms all size 8.  One suit size 16 and the rest were all mismatched tops and bottoms.  I mean really mismatched they weren't in the same pattern, texture, nothing.   I finally found one nice top that I could use with some nice purple surf shorts I own.  Well it turns out that one wasn't included in the 50% off.  grrrrr

So to make a long story even longer I walked through the mall to Zellers and went and bought a bag of candy bananas and Bugles.....

Yum, yum those were the most delicious salmon steaks.  I marinated them overnight in a homemade teriaki sauce.  I'm thinking of using the leftovers for pizza or to make a salmon pie.  Today it is finally cool enough to think about cooking in the house.  It's only supposed to go to 23 C today.  Tonite the kids have a swim meet.  It's the last one of the season.  Free barbeque after that.  Glad we won't be sweltering there on the pavement.

happy weekend.

Well it seems my lovely spider pic is getting quite the stir.  That monster sucker with meat on his legs was spotted on my arm one morning.  I was brushing my hair in the bathroom mirror and saw its reflection in the mirror on my arm.  I tell ya,  I never screamed so loud in my life.  I wacked it to the floor then it started scurring around.   My big brave teenage son jumped on the toilet seat and wouldn't help.  Kaikoa finally rounded it up and let it loose outside.  The tile you see it on is a 12" floor tile.  I normally don't mind spiders but this was one huge sucker.
