  • Yes and yes! The clouds that had gathered over the city Monday morning decided some time after lunch that they would do me a favour and part for a little while. I must say that I appreciated it. It’s not often that I take the Yashica A out anymore. I had replaced it in 2022…

  • That’s right: we had both weekend days! The sun was sure a welcome presence on a Sunday morning, so we were quite happy to take advantage of it. Of course, the real cause of our later-in-the-day Sunday adventure wasn’t the sun: it’s that we needed a few things at NuGrocery in Old Ottawa East, which…

  • Having been sufficiently thrilled by the squill, I proceeded back home to enjoy catching up with my Mom on the phone (as we do most Sundays) and to have my lunch of a little egg salad-like sandwich made of leftover tofu scramble. After that, it was off to the National Arts Centre, which was hosting…

  • Why? Because Spring is here! The Spring that is about to explode with colour. The trees well-and-truly awaken and the view from my balcony goes from brown-and-sticks to bright treen to deep green in what feels like two or three weeks. …and even more to my delight, the flowers! The flowers! From the beds planted…

  • I’m just being dramatic. I know that I am. I could have titled this “Charlotte faces challenges scanning a re-spooled oddball specialty film that third-parties like selling to make colour films available at lower price points” or something. But my gosh, is scanning Kodak Aerocolor sometimes an exercise in frustration. Going forward, I think I’d…

  • On Saturday, Kathleen and I had one thing on our minds for our adventure: paying a visit to 613flea to look for, well, more dresses and skirts, sure, but our mail goal was delicious vegan treats from some of the vendors there. Any my gosh, did we ever find what we were looking for! From…

  • That makes at least two of us. You might remember the reliability challenges I had earlier this winter with the Pentax ES II in January and February, which were mostly that at some point through the roll, the shutter would begin to remain open. Not every time, or course (that would be too easy), but…

  • My final morning in Toronto went by quickly. Perhaps a little too quickly, but I think that’s always the case when you’re somewhere you love with someone you love. Like the morning before, my sister and I were scheduled to meet up around 11 in the morning. This would coincide with my check-out time and…

  • Sometimes it turns out that a fear of missing out is just plain old missing out. I did not think that when I deleted my last Instagram account in 2022 that information about events would just …not be available anywhere else. Noticing that small businesses I like and seemingly all queer events are at least…

  • After a nice time lingering at Ethica over beverages, my sister and I turned our attention to what we were going to have for dinner since it was getting into the later part of the afternoon. While she was willing to have anything I wanted, I was of two minds… On one hand, the slightly…
