Filkcontinental nostalgia

I've enjoyed reading blog posts about Filkcontinental, which took place a couple weekends ago. Fellow Canadians Dave Clement, Tom Jeffers and Heather Dale were guests, and it sounds like everyone had a wonderful time; I chatted with Tom and Sue on the phone just before I posted this Blathering and they sound remarkably cheery and un-jetlagged.

Filkcontinental audience


I got all nostalgic and decided to have a German style breakfast this morning: cold cuts, cheese, yogurt and bread. Ok, so the bread was toasted and spread with peanut butter and Guinness marmite -- that's more of a British influence (courtesy Teddy, Lissa and BSAG). :-) I also made myself some "1001 Nights" tea that I bought in Frankfurt while visiting my friend Ju Honisch.

Penelope Restaurant review


Speaking of food, I've posted a review of Toronto's Penelope Restaurant in blogTO, Luisa and I ate there last Friday.

I have a new long-ish post in Inkygirl: E-mail etiquette (a tad rant-ish).
