  1. IUCN Red List shows that 17,291 species out of the 47,677 assessed species are threatened with extinction http://snipurl.com/t538r
  2. The caraway seed foccacia is out. I put olive oil, edam and parmesan cheese on the top. Reduced the oven temp from pizza-fire. Looks good.
  3. @Salfree This group will be fun today. Truly though, I dislike (and, looking back on school days, resent) all forms of competitive sports.
  4. @paulrickett What is TV? Oh yeah, that box my parents had. It showed only what advertisers forced my parents to watch. Noisy and ugly.
  5. RAINING. Bake bread in 1/2 hour. Then off to a bowling party on the mainland. No, I don't. I've bowled only a few times since I was a kid.
  6. My first email avalanche report of the winter season just arrived from http://www.avalanche.ca/. It may be raining, but I'm thinking SNOW!
  7. Wet day on Bowen Island. Writing to clients in my office, and dashing to the kitchen about tonight's pizza dough and tomorrow's focaccia.
  8. @stoweboyd Program Committee? Boyd once said, " it is my idea of hell." Ok, what are yer ToR? http://macte.ch/jusIO
  9. @hummingbird604 Oh yes, but is it really Mexican, or is it cross cultural: Tex-Mex, or AZ-Mex? (Chocolate Mole deserves to be better known.)
  10. I don't understand this offer of 6 free Macintosh apps, but it is nice. Check it out: http://www.macheist.com/
  11. RT Radio drama @ZBSFoundation #ZBS Fallen Angels that Bounce - Episode 1 (it's free and fun): http://snipurl.com/t33mp [www_zbs_org]
  12. @hummingbird604 I know you said 'Vancouver' so I'm not at the blog. But there was sun-dried Carne Seca at Tucson's El Charro Café. Yummy!
  13. Dough mixed and rising for both Saturday's carraway seed foucaccia (my experiment, we'll see, eh?) and for tomorrow's pizza. Feeling kneady.
  14. @hummingbird604 It was La Fuente, in Tucson, AZ. Their enchiladas with chocolate mole sauce were amazing. (It's been a while.)
  15. RT @JenTekk: Celebrating 10 Year Wedding Anniversary today with Mr. Duguay! Woohooo!!! :D
  16. @Miss604 "we're all going to die from Purell poisoning" ...never thought of taking it internally. Maybe with Baileys Cream? Take that H1N1!
  17. Interesting. The story is US reps met w/Burma reps. Every news service has a different spin on what this story means. Report, not interpret!
  18. Yes. And see the depth of the huge low pressure system headed our way in this surface map http://www.prh.noaa.gov/hnl...
  19. BTW I've updated backcountry weather forecasting page. Tell me of new/better features, or corrections. http://ballantyne.com/weath...
  20. Rain warning predicts 35 mm precip, but 70 mm near North Shore. Is Bowen Island "Near the North Shore?" Anyhow, too warm for snow. :(
