Eco-Care 2008


Yesterday and today I attended a conference hosted by London Health Sciences Centre called Eco-Care 2008. LHSC is trying to find ways to reduce their impact on the planet - what a cool concept eh? I think it is fantastic that the organization is supporting this effort to wholeheartedly. There were vendors of the hospital (me included) and just over a hundred attendees from different health care related facilities around the country. It was so heart warming to see so many people taking the issue of our environment so seriously.

Last night as part of the conference there was a gala dinner at Museum London, with Justin Trudeau as the key note speaker. I went excited to hear Justin speak on his views on environment and the inevitable political topics that were raised. Justin was charming, funny and was able to say the right things. He was very honest and spoke with passion and I think my favourite part of the evening was when Justin proclaimed to the crowd that he has so much to learn and many years to until he would think himself in a position to even think of leading the Liberal party, nevermind the Country. I look forward to watching his career unfold!

Slow cooker time


I recently bought a slow cooker because I decided it was a great idea for no good reason. I just got the idea in my head because my friend Sarah has one and she's a great cook argo if I got a slow cooker I would be a great cook. Perfectly sensible.... ahem

So now that it's getting colder outside I'm about to christen the cooker. Sarah (the great cook) sent me a few recipes that I am going to try out, soon!

A slackers promise

I sort of fell of the blog map in September. September is the hardest month of the year for me personally and I have not been very motivated to do much of anything. I am going to try and do better. October will be a new start....

Private Practice - Season Premiere









I watched the season premiere of Private Practice last week and really enjoyed it! I gave this show a hard time when it first started but now I have to say I'm a regular. It's pretty cheesy but I will be tuning in next week to see if Addison and Naomi will still be friends....

Chicago!









I am off to Chicago next week and I've never been before. My friend Pamela lives in Chicago so I'm going to visit her for a couple of days. I hear Chicago is better than New York! I so excited to tour around the city, scope out the architecture, great restaurants, shopping and shopping. : )

I'll update when I get back with some pictures and tales of my Chicago adventure
