I just made vegetarian chili from a can. And just before you get all angry and disgusted ask yourself. Is it not better then *meat* chili in a can. AND then be quiet.
Although it is making my tummy hurt something awful and giving me a headache, maybe that's just it being chili.
I found two funny things today, (not via metafilter, amazing in itself).
So Jen, my amazing business partner and friend went on a mission to visit her family/train some new clients this week and she left me her dog Tilu.
Tilu Nanda is a rambunctious and funny little German Sheppard mix. She and Lola (a clumsy and crabby Spaniel/Collie mix) are like a furrier version of oil and water, as in they don't, mix.
It smelled like spring this morning. The trees are budding despite the fact that I am still walking three feet above ground in the park, on packed snow.
I looked a bit like someone with a penchant for sniffing drugs, walking along taking deep breathes with my nose. I actually leaned closer to the trunk of a huge maple, just to see if there was actually a smell emanating from the bark - I don't think there was. So where does the smell of spring come from?
The Trinity Session Re-visited is still amazing, I wanted to post Sweet Jane but since I bought the album through i-tunes I can't ;(. Instead here is another youtube find.
When I was 16 years old (I think). I bought a cassette tape of the Cowboy Junkies influential bluegrass album recorded at the Church of the Holy Trinity in Toronto. Along with Leonard Cohen (Tickets I recently did not purchase, sadly.) the Cowboy Junkies are musicians that have stood (not to sound too cliched or anything) the test of time.
Generally speaking, I think reunion's 're a bit bogus, but in fact this time around, maybe because the music is so good it just demands re-interpetation, it seems like a bit of a brilliant idea to gather together an amazing collection of musicians inspired by the album to re-record it in the same place, 20 years later.
