Ryan was travelling in the US this month and ended his trip in San Fransisco. Seeing an opportunity I met him there and we had great little get-a-way weekend. We spent a day in Palo Alto (Silicon Valley) for Ryan’s meetings at Stanford University and then we zipped over to the coast for our trip back to San Francisco (thanks Ram, for lending us the Porsche)! The next day we toured around San Francisco, included a trip down Lombard Street and some shopping at Union Square. On our last day in California we toured through Sonoma Valley and picked up some great bottles of wine. Ryan went back to Ottawa the following day and I continued on to Vancouver and then Victoria for work.
Happy Canada Day!

First signs of tomato growth
Happy Canada Day! Ryan and I headed down to Parliament Hill this morning for the noon hour show. It was a spectacular event and we have the sun burns to prove it.
We have also been in the house for about a month now. The yard is still a mud pile but I have tomatoes growing in pots and we are as unpacked as we can be at this point. We are really happy with the house and all the choices we made, but there is still lots to do. Next up: installing blinds. I feel a bit guilty about not having any better pictures to show you but I have put a few in Chez Nous for you to see. Check out the Foodies tab to see how I’ve been enjoying the new kitchen and fresh summer ingredents when making lasagna!
