Today is my birthday, although we did most of the celebrating yesterday since the kids had school today. C and J picked out a pretty ruby and diamond necklace and earrings for me and S gave me chocolates (can't go wrong with that!). And my neighbour got me some cool graphic novels, Fables, some delicious chocolate-strawberry tea, and some black truffle almonds. It's suppose to rain tomorrow afternoon so I'm thinking I'll curl up with a cup of tea, nibble on some almonds, and read my graphic novel.
I did a little redecorating today. The shower curtain in the kids' bathroom was 10 years old and I decided it was time to replace it. I chose one that looks like a sail from a sailboat. I bought some new bathmats and a new toothbrush holder for the kids. It's a simple makeover but the new shower curtain seems to brighten up the room. The kids were a little sad I took down the old shower curtain - it had puppies and kitties on it. But since that bathroom is also used by visitors I decided it was time to make it a little more grown-up. I'll look through C's maritime-themed photos and see if there's if I can find something to frame and hang up in there - like a crab or a lobster, something fun like that.
S was recovered enough from her cold to go to school today. She was happy because it was her special helper day - she missed her helper day in February and March because she was sick both times. She took two books that she knows how to read for her show-n-tell and got to read one to the class. Our neighbour didn't go to school today because S managed to pass pinkeye to her. Her mom sent me a message this morning asking for symptoms of pinkeye and then a photo of her daughter's eye. I felt so bad that S managed to pass pinkeye to her friend. I checked in with her mom this evening and she said that M is already getting better and will be back to school tomorrow. I'm glad she's getting over it quickly!
S had soccer this evening and she had fun, as always. This spring session has a lot of kids in it so the coach was smart and got three other guys to help him run the drills. That way there's only 5-7 kids in each group and they get more attention from the coaches. She is getting good at dribbling the ball although she is still hesitant to get in there and kick the ball during their little scrimmages. I'm hoping that the more she plays the less hesitant she'll be.
I received a new clue for my Outlander MKAL over the weekend and the newest clue for the Solar Flare MKAL today, so I have lots of knitting to do. I'll try to post some update pictures tomorrow!
What started out as an attempt to getting back into writing daily has become the ramblings of an everyday stay at home mom doing everyday things.

Birthday Burger Lunch
Today we went out for lunch for my birthday and of course I had to have another Burger Love burger. Today's burger is called the Moooo Shiner and you can find it at The Old Triangle. It was a fun lunch because the Sunday musicians were there performing live Irish music. The place was jumping today between the music and Burger Love - it made for a good lunch!
The Moooo Shiner was a good burger, but it isn't my top choice. I'm still waiting for a burger to knock the Southern Jack out of first place for me but so far nothing has. What was good about today's burger? Lots! The burger itself was okay - it wasn't as juicy as some of the other burgers I've had. I don't know if it was a little overcooked or the type of beef they used but it was just a little dry.
The name of the burger comes from the fact that there's a lot of moonshine involved in it. The BBQ sauce on the burger is infused with moonshine. The BBQ sauce had a good flavour to it and it was the only type of sauce (no ketchup, mustard, mayo, etc) so it wasn't competing with other sauces. There was more moonshine in the sugar-shine bacon and the shine-pickled onions, both of which were tasty (and I don't like onions).
There was applewood smoked cheddar on the burger although the flavour seemed to get lost under the BBQ sauce. There was also chipotle dusted kettle chips (yup, potato chips) on the burger which added a nice crunch but they didn't add any heat. The bun itself was a brioche bun and I was worried that it wouldn't be able to support the burger since the bottom was cut kind of thin. Since there was only BBQ sauce on the burger and it was on the top bun, the bottom held up well.
And because it seems like Burger Love burgers have to have something crazy on top, this burger had the Flaming Smoked Cheddar Deep Fried Mac n'Cheese Ball. It was larger than a golf ball and yes, it was deep fried. When they bring it to your table, they bring along a spray bottle of...wait for it...moonshine...which they spray on your mac n'cheese ball. They then light it on fire. I tried to get a picture of it on fire but since it was daytime and the server's spray bottle was being difficult I couldn't get a good picture. This was taken after the flames died out:

All in all, it was a good solid middle-of-the-pack burger. I felt like it was one of the bigger burgers I've had although the patty was only 6 oz. I was stuffed by the time I finished it but that could have something to do with the nachos we ate before the burgers arrived. :-)
The weather here was beautiful today so we took a much needed walk this evening before having a very light supper. C and the kids picked out a birthday cake for me and we had it tonight since Monday nights are busy with soccer. It was a tasty chocolate cake topped with whipped cream icing and cherries. I had a little piece because I was still full from our lunch.
Today is GoT night, which makes me happy! It is also Outlander and Once Upon a Time night but I won't watch those shows until tomorrow morning since C isn't really a fan of either one. I'm excited to see what happens with GoT although I hope there isn't any head squishing in the season opener. I expect there will be something gruesome because it is GoT after all. I will be working on my Outlander shawl during the show because it requires less attention to detail than my Solar Flare shawl. Yeah, I have to think about stuff like that - it's the life of a knitter.

Happy Birthday!
Today is J's 10th birthday. I can't believe my baby, my first-born, has reached double digits. It's amazing to look at pictures of him from when he was born and look at him now and see how he's grown. He's become a wonderful young man, and I hope that continues as he grows older.
He got to stay home for his birthday. Yes, there wasn't any school today. The buses still can't fit down some of the roads. So the school board took today and planned out how they were going to get the kids to school tomorrow because YES! they will have school tomorrow. Excuse me while I do my happy dance. I will have to drive them to school (that's okay with me) and pick them up (again, I'm fine with that) because they will be in school!
I did get a chance to get out without the kids today so I could get J's birthday presents. He got the MineCraft books he's been begging for, a Halo MegaBloks figure set (no huge Harrier type jet to put together), and a new hockey gear back. He wanted a tower bag as opposed to a duffle bag style, so we got him one. His Grandma and Grandpa sent him a crystal growing set, a flip puzzle thing, a shirt, and a sweatshirt. His Nana and PopPop as well as his aunt sent him cash. He's got quite the stash of money these days. S has even more because she's hasn't spent as much as he has. S's goal is to buy herself an iPod. She'll be able to get one soon. Or possibly a tablet, like a Kindle Fire.
I made J his favourite supper tonight - tacos and then for his birthday treat he asked for donuts in place of cake. I'm not one to complain about donuts, so I agreed. I tried one place but they were out of Boston Creme donuts (how? how can that happen?) so went to the competitor's place and was able to get them without a problem. The donuts were tasty!
It was once again a beautiful day here on the island. When I was out running errands today, I didn't even bother with a coat, just my sweater and scarf. It was 0C (32F) and it felt nice! Back in Virginia, I would have been running around in a heavy coat with my hat and mitts, but here in Canada 0C feels warm these days. There was lots of melting going on which is good, and only a little water came into the garage. As long as the thawing goes slow, we shouldn't have a flood in the garage. Of course tomorrow into Friday there is suppose to be snow flurries and rain. As long as it's just flurries, that's okay. I can handle flurries.
I can tell that spring is really on the way. The house has been getting downright hot during the day with all the sunlight coming in the windows, even with the curtains. We had to crack a window in the kitchen because it was close to 75F in the house! And I saw a fly today. I haven't seen one in a long time. The ice in the harbour looks like it's starting to crack and I've noticed the section of the harbour where the current is the strongest has melted. And when I was out walking earlier today I saw some grass peeking out from the edge of the 10 foot high snow banks. We're taking baby steps towards spring but we will get there soon. Let's hope we keep going forward and don't fall back!

Monday, Monday...
Today the kids were suppose to be back in school after their March Break, but they announced yesterday that school was closed today. At first I questioned this because honestly, looking out the window it wasn't that bad out. But when I dragged the kids with me to the grocery store I realized that they did make the right call. The road to the store seemed fine at first, but as soon as you got to an open area that didn't have any windbreaks, it was covered with snow. At one point it went down to one lane without any warning. And from what friends were saying, the bridge into downtown was bad too with the white-outs.
What I am questioning is why school is closed tomorrow. Yes, it's closed again tomorrow. I am seriously beginning to question the decisions of the school board.Yes, some of the rural areas still have blocked roads, but do we need to close the schools across the entire island for that? Couldn't they open the schools in areas where the roads are better? Even the kids are getting tired of being home.
How do I know this? When we asked each of them to do some writing, they both did it happily. Okay, maybe just S was happy about it, but J started getting into it. We asked him to write down all the things that we did that annoyed him. He said making him go to bed before 9:30, not letting him play video games whenever he wanted, and not letting him have a dog were his things. We then asked him to write down what he could improve and he said being nicer to his sister, remembering to turn off the lights (this one drives me crazy!), and being better about cleaning up. S was busy writing a book about her school day. I will have to scan in the pictures and share it. It is really cute.
School being closed tomorrow is going to make life tricky for me. J's birthday is Wednesday and we don't have any presents for him yet. I had planned to go out Tuesday morning and get his presents. Now I'll need to either take him with me, which means he sees what he's getting, or hope that they have school on Wednesday and scramble to get them. Wednesday would work because he won't get his presents until he gets home from school (see, thinking positive!) but I don't like leaving things until the last minute.
I also need to get working on S's birthday party on Saturday. I have the things I need to make the cupcakes, which I will do on Friday. We'll head out tomorrow to get the things to put in the goodie bags, although I don't have a final count for how many kids are coming. Hopefully parents will be good and respond by Wednesday as I asked them too. We'll see.
I also now have the ice skate chocolate mold that I've been waiting for (weather held up the delivery). I had hoped they would make candies small enough to put on top of the cupcakes since she wants a skating themed party but they are too big. I will bag them up individually and include them in the goodie bags. That is, if I can get them made. I tried making chocolate candies for them first time today. I managed to make 4 of them and then called it quits (mainly because I had to start stewing chicken for dinner). I did learn a lot from my first attempt and I think the rest of them should go better. I will need to pick up more chocolate wafers to melt since it takes more than I expected. We'll get those tomorrow too. I'm going to need time to get them all made.
I may also take the kids over to the indoor play place tomorrow if it's open. Of course, since all the kids are off school tomorrow it might be crowded. My other idea is to take the kids to see Cinderella, although J isn't too crazy about that idea. One thing we definitely are going to do tomorrow is go to J's hockey game. It was suppose to be tonight but it got postponed due to the bad roads. S was also suppose to have her first session of spring soccer tonight but that too got postponed - it will start next week.
Since we didn't have any sporting activities tonight, I was actually able to make supper on a Monday, rather than throw something in the slow-cooker or just have leftovers (they will be for tomorrow). I have a simple, easy recipe for chicken enchiladas that C and J love. You know that J loves them when he has a second helping. Because I like to share tasty, easy recipes, here it is;
Easy Chicken Enchiladas:
3 cups of cooked chicken (see note below)
1 350g package of shredded cheese
1 small can of chopped chilies
1 can of enchilada sauce OR a jar of your favourite salsa (I use salsa verde)
8 tortillas

1 350g package of shredded cheese
1 small can of chopped chilies
1 can of enchilada sauce OR a jar of your favourite salsa (I use salsa verde)
8 tortillas
- Preheat oven to 350F. Spray a 9x13 baking dish with a non-stick spray.
- Combine cooked chicken, most of the shredded cheese, and the chopped chilies.
- Divide chicken mixture between tortillas, rolling each one up and placing it seam side down in the baking dish.
- Cover with enchilada sauce or salsa. Top with remaining shredded cheese.
- Cover with aluminum foil and bake in the oven for 30 minutes, or until heated through and cheese is melted.
- Serve with shredded lettuce, sour cream, as well as your favourite sides.
A note about the cooked chicken:
You can buy precooked chicken for this. The rotisserie chickens most grocery stores carry these days are excellent for this recipe. But if you want to, you can stew your own chicken for this recipe, which is what I do if I have the time. I use bone-in chicken thighs, some carrot, celery, onion, salt, pepper, and whatever spices I feel like throwing in at the time. I stew it until it's cooked (usually 45 mins to an hour), then pull the meat off the bones and shred it. I usually end up with more than 3 cups of chicken, which is fine with me. I like my enchiladas stuffed. :-)

Birthday Fun, part 2
Tonight we had J's birthday party. His birthday isn't until later in the month but the local hockey team was playing tonight and he wanted to have his birthday party there. It was a little stressful keeping track of seven 9 and 10 year olds, but it was fun.
It was a pretty cool package they put together for birthdays - tickets to the game, pizza and pop, and J got a team practice jersey signed by the player of his choice. The team mascot also stopped by our section and waved to the kids and they announced he was celebrating his birthday tonight. We also treated the kids to popcorn, candy, and water. Thankfully the canteen (and washrooms) were close to where we were sitting!
Since this was one of the last home games of the season, there were a lot of people there. We saw so many people we know. It's one of the things that I really like about living where we live. J saw teammates and classmates. And of course all the kids were happy the home team won.
After the game, the boys we were driving home hung around outside the team locker room door. The players were really nice to the kids as they came out. J and his friends got a bunch of autographs. I think they were all a little starstruck by seeing the players up close. I told J to take care of the jersey he got because some of these players will be in the NHL one day.
We got all the kids safely delivered to their parents after the game and now both my kids are tucked into bed. I hope they sleep in late tomorrow since neither of them got into bed until 10:30. And as we're expecting a blizzard with 30 to 50 cm of snow tomorrow, we're not doing much tomorrow. I believe C and the kids have planned a MineCraft marathon which will give me plenty of time to catch up on the knitting I didn't get to do today.
I'm a tired mom, but I'm really glad that all the plans for tonight worked out. The kids had fun, and it was a lot of fun for us to see J hanging out with his friends and having a good time. One party down, one more to go. But at least I have two weeks to get ready for that one!

Birthday Fun, part 1
Today starts a weekend of birthday fun. Today is S's birthday. I can't believe my little girl is now 6 years old. It's crazy! I was looking at pictures from when she was just a toddler and realized how much she's grown.
At school today they sang happy birthday to her and she got to go to the Birthday Box and pick out some goodies. At home we had massive cupcakes (she ate 3/4 of one) and she opened her presents. She loves the fact that she finally got her EasyBake oven. She also got a Guardians of the Galaxy Lego set. She loves that movie and was very excited the set has Rocket Raccoon in it. She also got a 3-D tiger puzzle, a dress-up pony paper doll set, and a potholder maker. I haven't seen one of those in years! She is intrigued by it. As we are suppose to get 45 cm of snow (I can't decide whether to laugh, cry, or do both about the snow) on Sunday, I'm sure we'll have time to work on making a potholder.
S will have her party later in the month. She wanted to have an ice skating party and getting ice time this time of year is tough because of play-off hockey for the winter and spring hockey starting. I wasn't able to get ice time until the end of the month. She keeps thinking her party is tomorrow and not two weeks away. She's very excited about having a skating party since she learned to skate this year although she is disappointed that her "boyfriend" from school can't come because he doesn't know how to skate. Maybe he will learn to skate for S. :-)
J had his last regular season hockey game tonight. The team won and they played much better than they did last night and J scored a goal. At each game the team does a 50/50 raffle and one of the parents on our team won. Rather than take the money herself she told the team manager to give each kid $2. The kids were thrilled! I think every one of them stopped at the canteen on the way out to get a treat.
As for my knitting, I was able to get two rows of my new Snow Queen shawl done today. It's another short clue of 12 rows but by the time I finish those rows I will be up to 480 stitches. I also got the yarn wound for the Hobbit scarf I'm going to do. I won't be starting that until I finish up clue 4 of the Snow Queen. I also finished the cowl I was working on. It turned out nice but it is a bit small, so it's almost more like a neck warmer than cowl.
It's okay that the cowl is kind of small because C brought me a gift from his trip. The mall down by where he was is a high-end mall. I looked through the stores online and mentioned to him there was a a Burberry store there and that a scarf would be nice...until I looked at the prices. I then told him I was joking and that I really didn't need a scarf that expensive. Apparently he thought I did because he got me one! I love it! It is a beautiful purple colour and is so soft and warm that it is hard to take it off. I wore it to the rink tonight and I swear the only part of me that wasn't cold was my neck. It was a wonderful surprise. I am feeling very lucky and spoiled today. :-)
