Indian picnic – 25th of June, 2011, Andrew Haydon Park, Ottawa

June 24, 2011 — xanthippa

This year’s ‘Indian Picnic’ will be held tomorrow, 25th of June, 2011.

It will take place at the beautiful Andrew Haydon Park in the West end of Ottawa.

I don’t have is year’s menu, but here is a peek at last year’s.

This is the annual fundraiser picnic for  MSMF Foundation – and a delicious way to help others be well enough to help themselves

I have not missed one for abut a decade (or longer), though, I am not certain if I will be in any shape to go  and so am leaving the decision until I see how I feel tomorrow.

If you are in Ottawa and would like to enjoy the best home-cooked Indian food ever, things kick off around 11-ish with the food being served from 12 o’clock on.  It will be awesome!

Klutzy….

June 6, 2011 — xanthippa

In the next little while, I will be off for  a bit of a break…

During a little accident (I am rather klutzy) last week, I kind of messed up one shoulder.  The MDs put it together as best they could, but they have to wait for the worst of the swelling to go down a bunch before they can see if the bits of bone will line up as they are now, or if they’ll need to go in.

I myself am fine.  Too ‘fine’, perhaps!  While I wait, I am ‘being kept comfortable’…. and I suspect it is a bad idea to blog while I am this very ‘comfortable’ on medication. (I am having trouble focusing on them little letters, anyway – the seem to be doing the czardas!)

Therefore, I will be off for a break…

Ha ha -get it?  ‘Off for a break!’

Monopolies: a form of fascism, make no mistake about it

May 31, 2011 — xanthippa

This video documents a very frightening ‘feature’ that monopolies appear to have ‘built in’:

Increasingly, we have the economy referred to as ‘whales and plankton’ – which, in the absence of ‘in-between-sized companies’, is not a healthy ‘eco-system’.  (Yes, pun intended:  you might as well laugh as cry!)

It seems to me like Pat Condell is channeling Nigel Farage….
