We are having a rare, sunny weekend, it’s so beautiful and almost feels like Spring. My sister Elizabeth and her husband have a goat on their property in Yarrow. His name is George. Markus came inside for something to eat after they had been playing outside and when he was ready to go out again I said “Wait, put your coat on” and he said “It’s not a goat, it’s a jacket!”. So adorable!

My mom and my sister Elizabeth (who already live in Yarrow, one hour and 10 minutes East of Vancouver) went to see the house first. They reported that it was great and we should go look at it. ‘What colour is it’, I asked my sister. ‘It’s pinky beige’, she replied. Photo by Maria Killam…

Last summer my sister Anita and her family got selected to star on a show called the Family Cook-off on the Food Network. This was the setting that day at Granville Island. It just aired on Friday night so now I’m allowed to post about it. My sister and I have not been getting along well lately (something happened). And last weekend I was in a course with Landmark Education called Direct Access. One of the things the forum leader said was “I’m okay with anyone in my life that walks into the door”. And I thought ‘I want to be that person, and actually right now things are not okay with my sister”.
