The Canadian Rockies are currently experiencing their best weather window since the fall, and everyone here is scrambling to make the most of it. June tends to be rather wet around these parts so it could be a while before we are again able to bask in a week-long stretch of sunshine.

I need to read more.  I feel well-informed of current affairs from reading various news media, but I don’t read enough books.  I used to love thumbing through books, especially historical fiction novels that had something to do with China and Mao’s Cultural Revolution.  Now I spend the majority of my day at work staring at a computer screen, only to come home to stare at a computer screen perusing through different food-related websites, my blog, and anything else of interest.

Just another typical day at the office…or not! A few weeks ago we shot an episode of Sam the Cooking Guy at the SD Safari Park and got to go behind the scenes.  I’ve lived in San Diego my entire life, and always wanted to do a photo safari! It was so fun getting up close and personal with the animals!!
