Faye and Maciek's Adventures in the frosty Canadian North
We reorganized our den by moving the desk to the adjacent wall, and now we have tons of additional space! And in case all you would-be-visitors are concerned, yes, the couch still has space to fold down. And yes, it still has a functional built-in speaker system.
Maciek brought back some spice jars from Yellowknife, so now our spices are all organized too.
It was Maciek’s birthday yesterday, so I made him a cake. No, it was not as exciting as the cake he made me for my birthday. Maciek is a big fan of spicy things, so I made a chocolate-chile cake with chocolate-jalapeño icing.
Maciek got me some Pat’s Backcountry Beverages for my birthday (not the most recent one, the one a year and a half ago). This is the first camping beer that’s been developed – it involves beer concentrate, a carbonator packet, and a mixing bottle with a strangely complex set of instructions.
I hadn’t actually tried it yet, so now seemed like as good a time as any, and Tulita sufficiently similar to being in the backcountry. So we tried a Pail Rail. Not too bad.
