Month: July 2024

I’m copying the Blue Rodeo song “5 Days in May” … my days in July were good days! Saturday July 27th, St and I went to the ROM to see ‘Wild Cats” and we went out for dinner at Oretta Restaurant … it was great! And then we went to The Keg down the street.

On Sunday, four of us spent two and a half hours at Pantheous Greek restaurant on Danforth Avenue. We laughed a lot and ate desert!

On Monday, St and I went to Allen’s Restaurant and then we went to Noonan’s. They were having each person play two things and St was one of them.

Hirut Restaurant was Tuesday. We have a plate of food – Ethiopian Cuisine, “fresh ingredients to create flavourful dishes”. Then we heard Lorne Lofsky and David Occhipinti play jazz.

July 31, St and I have breakfast at Brick Farm and it was so good, eggs, spinach, onions and potatoes.

I was in Winnipeg/Kenora at July 11 to 16th and I had so much fun … just to talk to my sister and gaze out on the river/the lake, depending on where I was … and now I am back in Toronto and everything returns to normal!

Of course, I am spending time with the cats, I am taking care of them for a week while “the parents” are on vacation. It’s easy for me to take care of the kittens. I have a room upstairs and they can go upstairs and downstairs – there’s no dog! When I’m in the dining room using my computer, they’re quite close – one is on the cat mattress on the dining room table and one is sleeping on a chair.

When I’m watching tv, they move to the television in the living room … their quite happy, both of them!

It’s been summer since the end of May – only a couple of days it’s been raining and miserable but it hasn’t been below 26 degrees in the day … a little below that at night.

I was on the corner of Bremnar Blvd and Lower Simcoe Street at the Delta Hotel’s Soco Kitchen and Bar on Friday afternoon, with all the umbrellas outside. With such a lot of people here, a third of them are going to the Blue Jay’s baseball game at the Roger’s Centre and a third are just tourists. The last third of the people are Torontonians working in the Rogers Centre to Scotiabank Centre.
