Snow on the roof?

Wah! It's snowing today! Ok, it's a wet snow and it's 2 degrees so it won't stick around for too long but still - come on spring!

It is staying on the roofs and in the grass for the moment...

Here's what my patch of primulas looks like today (see yesterday's post)- with snow all over them!

Last night we went to Bellingham, Washington. I am still in awe that we can so easily go to another country; there is only a small percent of the population that can go to the US for a couple of hours and I think some of us in the Vancouver area forget how unique that is.

We went to Bellis Fair and found some pants and shirts for JP, and even found a bag and some shoes for me. Well, actually I found lots of shoes for me, I just didn't purchase them. And did you know there is a Daiso there? I was quite surprised. It's smaller than the one we have in Richmond and many items are more than $2, but it's still pretty cool - I could've brought home lots of stuff.

Here are my cute kitten heeled shoes, with a nice low heel which means I'll actually wear them for more than 15 minutes. I can't believe I used to walk to work, wear heels in the office all day and then walk home all in the same pair of shoes.

On our way home, after a very mediocre dinner at Arby's, we stopped in at Safeway and picked up some groceries. My favourite aisle is the one labelled 'hispanic'. To me, some of the very best food comes from that aisle - yum! - including these yummy drinks:

We also picked up French fried onions for casserole tops and the potato sticks because they are so very tasty:

How much snow did you get? or still have?
