Hip hip hooray. My snowman flabometer has trudged to the right. Applause!
Big news this weekend. I may have made Scrabble history amongst my circle of peeps. 89 points for SQUISHY. Shared this with roomie who could not have been less interested. Its all about using all of your letters people. Needless to say, I was pretty jazzed. If only B had been playing so she could also have felt the sting of a sealed loss......(insert evil cackle here!)
I saw a most odd live performance this weekend: Fairy Tale Ending - the big bad family musical. Needless to say it was everything I expected for the low low price of 12$. I think I knew where we were heading when i got my photocopied program and lined up at the box office (a tent on the corner of Adelaide and Bathurst). It was just an odd telling of how several fairy tales were ending tragically and villains had gone wrong and were in a criminal line up, and the crazed detective had to figure out why the endings were changing for the worse in the stories....ay yi yi. Spoiler alert!!! It was the narrator who committed the crime!
Apparently: "Fairy Tale Ending is a topsy-turvy yet touching tale of a young girl coming to grips with loss and the reality of growing up". I gotta tell you.....I didn't totally get this. Of course, once I realized one of the actors had a prosthetic hand (with french tips), I was pretty distracted and fascinated by it for the rest of the show, so may have missed the critical moment where we all got our moral of the day. Morbidly - I want to know what happened to her hand.
Shout out to the wolf......amidst all of the overacting by Goldilocks, the chronic whingeing of Jill, and the overbutchified detective.....you managed to shine through anyway.
Check it out....you have 6 days left to rush for tickets..... http://www.fairytaleending.ca/index.html
Guiltily, I had nachos at the Banknote afterward.....but I had the ones with the least cheese!
NO CREAM IN MY TEA TODAY......I did it!
Lentil soup tonight.....don't know the recipe unless I'm actually making it so will document as I go and share tomorrow!
