100 Happy Days Challenge - Day 11

A gluten-free peanut butter and chestnut rice paper wrap roll

Got some cooked chestnut as a gift last week.  Today is the second time I made myself a gluten-free peanut butter and chestnut rice paper wrap roll.  A quick and easy no-cooking peanut butter protein snack to avoid the midday slump.

Announcement: Mrs. Pitt _________ (present) the prizes.

Helped someone do her ESL homework.  One of the sentences was very interesting.  "32. Announcement: Mrs. Pitt will present (present) the prizes."  Don't know about you, I couldn't help thinking that Angelina Jolie will present the prizes when I read it.

My Homemade Black Rice Flour

One of my Japanese friends taught me how to make rice flour and I made a small batch of black rice flour just now.  It doesn't look as black as the one I bought online, but, I don't have to pay shipping fee now.  Yeah!

Earth Hour 2015

Last night from 8:30 pm to 9:30 pm we enjoyed an hour of darkness.  Hopefully, Earth Hour, this global event, will raise an awareness of energy conservation.  And, therefore, reduce the impact of climate change.

Why didn't I update my Happy Days Challenge last night?  I didn't turn my lights back on and slept early.  That was almost the whole night of darkness I embraced.

Doraemon - Gadget Cat from the Future volume 9

Read a book today.  An actual, conventional book which we have to use our fine motor skills to turn pages.  I like Kindle books but I like the physical touch of a book more.  What?  It is an English / Japanese comic book?  Hey, it is still a book!

Maple Syrup Festivals in Canada Spring 2015

Maple Syrup Festivals in Canada Spring 2015

Do you have plans for coming Easter weekend?  One of my friends' family is going to a Maple Festival.  Quebec and Ontario are the biggest producers of maple syrup in Canada.  New Brunswick, and Nova Scotia have many maple syrup farms, too. During spring, many maple syrup producers open doors to visitors.  Depends on how you want to call it, there would be Maple Festivals, Maple Syrup Festivals, Maple Sugar Festivals, Sugar Shacks or Cabane à Sucre around your area.

My homemade coconut oil and avocado oil lip balm

My homemade lip balm !  It's not easy to find just the right lip balm, is it?  I have been making my own for over a year now.  If you have all the ingredients you want, in less than 5 minutes you will be able to make your own.  This is a new jar I made today.
