Dare to be Different

I'd taken some cranberry white chocolate scones to work one day and one of my coworkers planted a bug in my ear.  He said he wondered what blueberry, white chocolate would taste like and it sounded like an amazing combination.  Tonight I baked blueberry, white chocolate cookies and he definitely got me onto something!  These are delicious! 


I like to be different, try things I've never tried before... my philosophy is why not?  If nothing changes, nothing changes as the saying goes,  and the same old well that gets rather bland after some time.

It's Been A While

It's been quite some time since I've visited my blog, life has become busy on this end, which is not a complaint by any means as I absolutely love what I'm doing.  This past few months I've not only worked, I've spoken at the Alberta College of Social Workers annual convention.  From this I've been interviewed for the Advocate, the social work magazine which blankets Alberta and the article will be published in the summer edition.  
The event was held this year at the Shaw Conference centre which is an ideal place to hold a conference as there's many rooms where several events can, and do, transpire simultaneously.  There was five group members who spoke, thankfully as we had a full day session, mind you knowing me I could have spoke a lot longer as I'm passionate about the topic we chose:
"Addictions: What the Textbooks Fail to Teach" 


Another milestone celebration, my oldest son and his wife both celebrate their birthdays in April.  I had my wee girl the evening before the celebration which worked out fantastic! We went shopping for a new outfit and the following day prior to the celebration my princess went to the big girls hairdresser.  Quality time with my granddaughter is extremely important in my life! 


We went to a restaurant I'd never been to, Browns Socialhouse I believe it's called, and the food was amazing!  I'll definitely revisit this restaurant! 


Happy Birthday Shayne and Sandy! 

I've still be using my camera, not as much these days, but I did another baby photo shoot and had a ton of fun doing this.  I love it when I see old traditions being carried forward, another moss bag photo of a gift from the Creator, a precious wee girl. 


Last weekend was another family photo shoot for a friend, today the place I work at is hosting a Round Dance and Pow Wow season is almost upon us... I will be attending a few Pow Wows this summer and look forward to the experiences as well as capturing some amazing photos! 

I will be back in time, not too sure when just yet, but all is well in my world.  I wish each one of you a fantastic weekend! Cheers.
