Looks like around Digby and into the Bay of Fundy there's some lightning action happening.

I haven't tried them yet but this seems like an OK deal at Sobeys (ends today). Fibre One squares (there's lemon, cinnamon bun and brownie), $2.99 a box. Get 1,000 Scene points when you buy five. So spend $15, get $10 back in points. They aren't big boxes, only five in a box, but?

I wonder why my video won't work? Says it can't process. Oh well. Here's a pic, we'll see if that works.

A tall young man on top of a muddy riverbank, about to slide down the mud into the river (which isn't visible). There's a clear blue sky above, some grasses around where he's standing and smooth brown mud in front of him.

I saw this...vehicle? at the gym earlier. Is it some form of mobility scooter?

A yellow vehicle? that looks kind of like a car but it's tiny, might fit one person in it.

A silicone pan that is divided into small cubes, in this case filled with minced garlic.

That's one of the weirdest headlines I've read today.

My kid popped into Costco to do some shopping for me last week. I entered it into MyFitnessPal just for amusement, this was his 'snack' before coming home (and having supper probably two hours later). That's almost what I eat in an entire day. 🤣

I got the results fairly quickly. Had appointment May 1, results came in the mail a couple weeks later. How insulting, they called my breasts 'fatty'! How dare....oh. Wait. Fatty vs. dense is good.

Text from the breast screening clinic letter, indicating that my breasts are almost entirely fatty, and I do not have dense breasts.

One thing an Instant Pot does do very well is dried beans. I soak them first (just preference, you don't have to), and I freeze them in silicone molds. Then if I need a half a cup of black beans for something I just fish it out of the freezer.

Do you eat these Quaker cereals? At Sobeys they're on sale 2/$7, and these coupons are available in the store (in CP they are anyhow). Buy four for $14, coupon makes it $10.50. For every two you buy, you get 200 Scene points, so $4 worth of points for your four boxes. Now about $1.63/box.

A box of Corn Squares cereal and a buy three get one free coupon.

Ha, I just shared this image with my kid in Toronto, as I sent him a package via CP (LAST MONDAY!). It arrived there today.

According to the Sobeys website they carry this brand.

I'm in Fairview, was about to go to the gym. My windshield is already iced over, I changed my mind.

-10 Celcius = 50 Fahrenheit?

Maybe name one Weeble. You may not be old enough to remember these, but Weebles wobble but they don't fall down. 🤣

I popped into Sobeys on the way home earlier, went through the self-checkout. "Visual monitoring in progress?" This is new to me. I greyed myself out there, but yeah my face was on the screen.
