It's been a while since I've gushed about my love for most things Canadian, so it may not make waves when I say: |
| Gilbert Blythe: My favorite Canadian |
I will be in the Northwest of the United States next week and one day I will make the trip to fair Canada.
I'm so anxious. What should I do to prepare? Practice my "OU?" Read Anne of Green Gables? Watch anything with Ryan Reynolds, Matthew Perry, or Rachel McAdams in it? Play a game of hockey, eh?
I'm just kidding Canadians, I know you're much more than that. Stick (oh I didn't even mean to make a hockey pun) around and you'll learn I have a weird, pointed obsession with Canada.

Emily tweeted this article about a man's perspective on NFP and it was a great read!

This week I read Jackie's take on politics. While we agree on many points, the main problem I have with politics is that I won't compromise my faith to fit into a political pocket. She and I just disagree on which points to "lead a charge." I'm still working on it...This article about Papa Bene 16 calling for economies to have morals helps.
When I was looking into other posts on Jackie's blog, I used a Google search which brought me in contact with this advertisement about "gentle abortions." Gentle. Abortions?

This week was a weird post. Trista was in Spain, but posted anyway (because she's a champ). My post was very different than I expected and Julie's has been trolled by a rude commenter. Thanks to those who wrote on the topic: "Feminine Genius: The Dress!"
Trista: "Dresses and the Apostolate of Beauty."
Julie: "Dresses Rule, Pants Drool, and Other Facts of Life." -- Which is getting a lot of silly comments.
Emily: "Tomboy fights back."
Chloe: "In All [Her] Splendor."

Thanks for the mention :D Totally use that as one of mine.
That cake looks delicious! Ahh, how I miss cake.
YAY Canada! I can't wait to hear all about it after you go :)
And oy, gentle abortion? Did you see the tweet Julie sent yesterday about a girl asking if there were any free ones so she could buy an iPhone? Our world these days...
I now expect to have 548430 people head on over to my blog expecting to read something really insightful... only to find that I spend my time pondering shampoo bottles and blind people shopping haha.
Also, I think you should work on bouting up your computer as you're aboot to take a trip to Canada.
