happy sunday!
i had to throw in that title today. when i worked at the local insurance company, my colleague penny and i had a long-standing joke: on the 25th of EACH month we would remind each other of how many months it was ’til christmas. mom and i do that, as well! so now YOU know, too! done your shopping, yet???!! 
it’s all about the t-shirt
look at what i received this week at theOTHERstore. i jumped for joy, i am telling you.
a promo for the special canadian edition saucony kinvara 2's
this is a really nice t: made of tech fabric, it’s light and fits well. red is not my favourite colour, but the inspiring slogan > the red colour. i do ♥love♥ tshirts. it is entirely possible that a future kiki project could be “wear a different tshirt every day for a year.” i doubt i would get through my collection!
coffee in my cup
i drank two mugs of coffee this past week.
(source)
they were ok. i drank them more because i was curious to see what exactly my reaction would be. conclusion: not enamoured.
local news
coincidence? right after i wrote about not knowing anything about the upcoming provincial election, i received my voting notice from elections canada. ok! i will be at the polling station on thursday, october 6th!
secondly…the strike at the local post-secondary educational institute is now over. i’m very relieved for everyone involved.
more mail
also this week, i found out that if i want to contribute the knitted blanket for the mcc relief sale, i will need to have it completed by march 23rd. at this time, that sounds like loads of time. but, as we all know, time flies! i better get started by november, at the latest, if i wish to meet the 2012 deadline.
…with a side of yogurt
in the weekly flyers a couple weeks back, there was a coupon for the glenridge zehrs. if you spent over $50, you got $5 off your grocery bill. ever since my may grocery challenge, i’ve had a sharp eye for deals! i took advantage of the zehrs coupon, and massively stocked up on items i eat all the time. however, i was a little overzealous with my yogurt stashing:
this p.c. blue menu brand is really creamy
multiply that container by three. and i neglected to look at the expiry date: september 25th. i do eat a lot of yogurt, but in the last few days, it’s been a story of “let’s have x for a meal…and dollop on some yogurt!” dessert? frozen yogurt with choco chips! now, if only puffins had an expiry date!…
have a great day, friends!
Comments
LOVE that red T-shirt… and since red IS one of my colours, i’d be more than happy to take it off your hands (lol). i just bought a new pair of runners that are saucony brand, too – so appropriate!
As a non-coffee drinker i am happy to hear that you are feeling “meh” about the stuff lately – feel free to join my puny ranks!
ooo, new runners! hope you went to get them at a certain store!…
new shoes always feels so good – you forget how squashed your cushioning becomes in the old ones! that’s right! i had forgotten that you are not a coffee lover, either…we are in the minority, i would say!
I actually said something this morning about Christmas being 3 months away!
I find that yogurt can hold up for a week or two after the sell by date (if unopened) but I can understand why you wouldn’t want to push that!
with only three months to go, does that mean it is “officially” xmas prep season??! (nope – not til after hallowe’en, at the very least!) just this aft, my mom said that yogurt will last a good week past the expiry – thanks for confirming this fact, zo!
Yup—that’s a lot of yogurt! You’ll be sick of it by the time it’s gone maybe? Sometimes I do that—eat so much for a while that I need a break.
I like the t-shirt! Red isn’t really a color I wear much (except…well, right now I have a red t-shirt on, but mostly b/c I’m not going anywhere!).
Interesting about the coffee! I wish I could turn off my coffee desire a little…
red is good for xmas, canada day and valentine’s day – otherwise, i am not really into it – funny you are wearing red today! i still have half a container of the yogurt…eesh!
