We Eatin Good

Fancy looking plates for a good cause ripped from P&S.
This went down at the 9th annual Gala Dinner of Culinary Inspirations, which just happens to be the largest fundraiser of the year for the Canadian Hemophilia Society - Manitoba Chapter. Follow the links and help us maximize our new voyage into the world of social media. Philanthropy for all!

The Past and Future

Two things I like. One I can't get enough of hearing and the other I anticipate every day.

...

Many moons of waiting will give you one second of love.

Merry Christmas

From this big little fluff monster and a super chill kitty to EVERYONE!

Christmas Crack

If you know, you know. If you don't, I'm sorry.

Seasons Change

I get a hankering for chocolate covered pretzels pretty much all the time but only act on it at this time of year. I had a few people do me some huge favors and I figured why not repay them with delicious treats? Exactly. Here is one broken up to see what we're working with.
Now here is a container that is about to be bestowed upon some lucky human being.
Also, who wouldn't want to watch a movie starring Stevie Janoski that was made by Mr. Oizo?

Thank You CFL

I'm sure pretty much everyone has seen the video I posted here, but I still felt the need to post it since it may very well be the greatest thing to happen in CFL history.

I have also recently been called out on my serious lack of ice cream makeage, so I used Grey Cup weekend as a chance to rectify that situation. To all the fans of delicious home made ice cream...I give to you...mint cookies n creme made with coconut milk. Thanks for the motivation.

Lazy Blogging

Terius makes a video for my other favorite song on 1977.

Gangsta Gibbs and Madlib team up for a project and here is the first leak...it just happens to be a good one.

Now go support independent hip hop and grab Doomtree's new record No Kings that came out today. Here's a little taste.

In Case You Forgot

Nothing Promised is having their first drop 11/11/11 so support the homie Robbie Tibbs.

Important Things

Knowledge that makes you money.

Knowledge that Thursday is not the best thing you've ever lived.

Lulled

Updates severely lacking. Reason being.
My two favorite Frank Ocean songs visualized in poorer than great videos.


A banger from The-Dream's latest mixtape that was crack to my ears for a bit...or maybe still is.

Secret(s)

Secret spot, secret food.
I've been to many places in the last two weeks, so it's pretty much your best guess as to where this delicious plate is from. Only thing I'll say is that the green salsa was pretty much the best I've ever had. Not seen are horchata and mandarin Jarritos.

How The Gods Chill

This song seems to get better every time I hear it and it is a relatively fun video.

More actual content of adventures and such upcoming. Patience may be the ultimate virtue.

Soft Launch

It has been rather quiet around here lately due to me being injured and sitting was nowhere near the top of my list of things to do and that got followed up by OT at work since my elongated summer holidays are looming. I will now attempt to make up for the slacking but a long weekend getaway is not going to help me with that. I'm a little late on posting this but Cam recently launched his Pancakes and Skateboards brand, so go buy something.

I have also really been feelin the Soft Kill LP
It isn't something I wouldn't normally be drawn to but they have done it. Really though, can you go wrong with Based Goth? Also, yes the title of this blog was a beautiful combination of both situations contained within the post. Have a great weekend.

Bakesale Success

The bakesale to benefit Japan was held today and it was a great big ol success! This is the only picture I took as I was busy taking people's money and giving them delicious treats.
This table plus some other stuff helped raise just over $1000 in 2 hours!!!! How amazing is that? So many thanks need to handed out now. A big thanks to Sam and The Albert for letting the sale happen in their establishment. Thanks to Scott for designing the poster and Ruben for putting the facebook event together. Thanks to everyone that helped with the online promotion of the event and all of the stores and restaurants that were nice enough to have a flyer on display in their business. A huge thanks goes out to all the people that contributed the baked goods: Tracy, Rachel, Heather, Lorraine, Caitlin and all the people that brought baked goods to the sale of which I didn't catch your name. It was all so very appreciated. Now onto maybe the biggest thanks and that goes out to everyone that dished out their hard earned cash for some treats and to help the people of Japan after a natural disaster. I am done with the excessive thanking for this blog post, but I am just very stoked on what a success the event was. Have a great rest of the weekend.

Live From The Lab

Oh my, what do we have here? Vegan butter tarts fresh from the oven? I do believe that is the case.
That could very well have been the last preview of what's in store for this Saturday. So, if you want to know what else is going to be there or to take part in what you've seen here...make your way down to The Albert between noon and 2pm. This is me thanking you in advance.

One Day Closer

A quick one today. I just finished wrapping up my strawberry white chocolate chip rice krispie treats and here they are.
The info once again, in case you forgot.
Spread the word and help some people in need.

Lastly, why not get some new Hodgy Beats of OFWGKTA fame into your ears?

More Info Plus More Intrigue

Here we are, another day closer to THE EVENT, so tell a friend or all of them with that link if you mess with FB. Onto more visually intriguing things like another teaser of what will be available on Saturday...and that is caramel apple spice cupcakes.
Now, since that is out of the way, let me move onto something that has been infecting my ears for the last week and a half. The Weeknd are pretty much all I listen to lately. They have me completely hooked. Great songs, great cover art and an air of mystery about them.
Do yourself a favor and check them out.

Fundraiser Alert

This Saturday it just happens to be going down. Bad things happen and then good people have to get together to try help others. Here is where you can do that if you live in Winnipeg or feel like making a trip for delicious treats.
Just a little sneak preview of what is going to be available on Saturday. Raspberry chocolate chip blondies.More previews as the week progresses.

A big thanks to Scott for doing the flyer for this event. A big thanks in advance to everyone that is contributing something to the sale. If you have the time, please come out and support the cause.

BINGO!!!!!

It has been a long long time since a real game of bingo has happened and blingo at the triple rock just doesn't really count. I'm pretty certain you can guess what I did tonight from this picture.

The Beast was all over the place at his first real bingo experience, very enjoyable to watch a man bite off more than he can chew.
See you every Monday?

On a completely unrelated side note 5th Column just released their spring line, so go and cop some new tees.
