Sushi making is ok with me - kind of cooking class, no harm done. Spa with 5yo? Not so sure about that one!

Thanks for your comment, Sam. Funnily enough, there was a piece on the news just now about how children's birthday parties have changed from the naive simple games to sophisticated expensive adult-like activities for kids (sushi-making with 8 YOs, spa party with 5 YOs). All I can hope for is that there will be a backlash when these kids grow up and wonder why they didn't have a real childhood.

On a similar topic, I had recently a conversation with parents after Church telling them that their son's (age 5) contribution to Sunday School discussion consisted mainly in 'blow them up, Zombies, blow them up'. I carefully questioned his TV / Computer game habits and they said that they really had a hard time finding anything that is interesting for kids AND doesn't contain violence. So sad, is there nobody out there that can do age appropriate kid entertaining without violence and / or sex????

Thank you so much, Sheila. Pandas are too cute.

I don't have any food allergies, except porridge and that's not really an allergy just a violent dislike. I did find this very appetising and I would certainly try it, possible with meat though. Good page!

As someone born and bred in Toronto, never ever thought I'd see an article enthusiastically going on about Oshawa! Nice presentation.

That is such a beautiful comment and very thought-provoking. I love that you practice post-mortem photography today too. Perhaps if more of us did, we wouldn't be so frightened by an inevitable end to life.

One of the reasons I like blogging at WordPress is the ability to blog and schedule the posts to come out later on. Some days I really feel like blogging, so I do a bunch of posts all at once and get them out of the way.

The misuse of to and too makes me nuts for some reason!

You're very welcome. Thank you for making them. <3

I recommend it. It's a way to have a conversation without having to rely on the background noise staying gone.

Excellent definition of abuse. Thanks for writing this!

Wow, thanks for mentioning my buttons and my article. Excellent article. I've never done the chatting thing online. That sounds interesting.

Thanks, Jan. Good tips!

More than welcome. Let me know what your store name is so I can visit!

John - I hope you do find those photos. 1974 was really a different era in this country. So much has changed. Maybe time for another visit - and we'll order days for you that aren't raining.
