Birthday Time
August 10th, 2010 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized 10 Comments »

It was my birthday this past weekend. Hurray for me! I knew going in to this birthday that things were going to be different. Not only am I living in a new apartment, I’m living in a new city, in a new country, with different people and new things. I was also completely aware that [...]

My Teeth Hurt

Oh tender morsels of sugar and chocolate and nuts and awesome. How I love thee. CocoMira, Canada Post and my sister’s love of Chapters has changed my life – and maybe soon my waistline. CocoMira, a Canadian company, makes these awesome toffee/chocolate combos. They come in Maple Crunch, Hazelnut Crunch, and Dark Chocolate Crunch. They [...]

Stampede Y’all
July 9th, 2010 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized No Comments »

It is with great sadness that I have to miss this year’s Stampede. The funniest part about that statement is that I actually haven’t been to the Stampede in almost 3 years. Like most Calgarians who were born and raised in the “Heart of the New West”, I eventually came to a point where I [...]

Summer Solstice
June 24th, 2010 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized 6 Comments »

Well Kids, it’s official, the longest day of the year is now behind us. For some this is not that big of a deal. For Calgarians, this is depressing. Your weather has sucked and the sun seems to be illusive. And for that I am sorry for you. In this, your dark rainy hour, I [...]

Thinking About What I Really Need.
June 14th, 2010 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized 6 Comments »

Walking through the frozen section at the Harris Teeter I came across this colourful box with the word: Cheenies on the front. The voice in my head: This has to be awesome. The box is cool, the name is cool, and it says that they love them in Brazil. I like Brazil. Never been to [...]

How to Meet the Fire Marshall
May 28th, 2010 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized No Comments »

Ever wondered how you could meet the local Fire Marshall AND be able to enjoy a sandwich while you were at it? It’s as simple as baking you’re own bread. Finding decently tasting, relatively affordable, GF bread has been a bit of a challenge. So in light of these challenges I went where I have [...]

Some Things Stay The Same
April 27th, 2010 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized 2 Comments »

A lot of things have changed since we moved. For example, my ability to read a thermostat. I have no idea what 70 degrees Fahrenheit is. I can’t even spell Fahrenheit, I had to spell check that one. And I also have no ability to gauge distance or directions. Seriously people I’m lost without the [...]

For My People At Home
April 3rd, 2010 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket 6 Comments »

I’m homesick today. There are so many things that I miss about Calgary and Canada right now. I miss my family, my friends (who are the same as family), my dog and my old boss. I miss how the use of a car horn is reserved for celebrating a win in hockey or to indicate [...]

Epic Cookie Post of 2010
March 14th, 2010 | caitlin | Categories: The Basket, Uncategorized No Comments »

Who doesn’t like cookies? Like really people, cookies are awesome. And one of the major downfalls about being a Celiac – aside from the general feeling that the food industry hates you – is that GF cookies are dry, crumbly and just not good. Well, I was lucky enough to get my hands on some [...]

Tardy to the Party
February 28th, 2010 | caitlin | Categories: Uncategorized 5 Comments »

What party am I talking about? The Risotto Party! Wow, I think I just heard you all judging me. Either way, you love me and that surpasses the judgment. Okay, so how did I discover Risotto? I became a student living alone on a student budget. You see, as an undergrad student, living on a [...]
