Pancakes with peaches
Breakfast I made Linda this morning.
Pancakes using this recipe http://www.recipezaar.com/The-Simple-but-Perfect-Pancake-103599
and then topped with…
* Peaches cut into small chunks
* Brown sugar
* Butter
* Dark Rum
… all cooked in a pan until the “sauce” thickened and the peaches softened (about 10 minutes)
… add Quebec Maple Syrup and enjoy.
One of the best breakfasts we’ve ever had.

Chrysanthemum
Eric’s work blew me away — I swore they were paintings when I first looked.

Biking with 5D Mark II from Sam Javanrouh on Vimeo.
Nice test and footage.
Testing the Canon 5D Mark II with a super wide angle lens while biking on King street and Yonge street in Toronto. Unfortunately it started raining and a raindrop on my wide lens ruined the second half of the shot.

Repairing your wetsuit
April 11th, 2009 · 3 Comments
Noticed last week when getting out of the water that one of the sewn seams on my Xcel infiniti hooded fullsuit has the thread stripped off about 2 inches on the forearm. The tape underneath had held and I hadn’t felt REALLY cold water hit my arm. The neoprene had spread apart just slightly.
I know you […]
