Curling and apples

Okay, so this is basically for Philip who I think is the only person who still occasionally checks this to see if I've added anything new.

It's not quite as exciting as photos of weddings or honeymoons in Belize, but I'm being lazy about sorting through all of those photos.

So, here is this weekend...

On Saturday, we went into Toronto to attend a curling clinic with some friends from work. If you count the one time I tried curling as a girl guide, then this is my second time. For the amount of learning that stayed with me though from that first attempt, I'm really not sure it's worth counting.

It was harder - and more fun - than we'd both expected. There were a few falls (mostly me - that ice is slippery!) but by the end of three hours we were starting to get the hang of it thanks to our coaches. And afterwards (and during apparently), we sit around and drink beer in sweatpants!




On Sunday, we took advantage of fall weather and fall harvests and went apple picking with Amy. We came home with about 80 apples (and a pumpkin!) so lots of pies, crumbles, and well .. apples in our near future.
