Half a Bite: March 2011
http://halfabite.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
In which some fleeting thoughts (and sometimes baked goods) become pixels on your screen. Thursday, March 31, 2011. I was having dinner at my local sushi joint last night when I witnessed the following exchange. A university-aged couple walked in. The server showed them to their table, which had a booth on one side and chairs on the other. The guy headed for the booth seat. The girl said, "Do you want the outside [chair] or the inside [booth]? He thought about it for a second and responded, "Do you.

Half a Bite: June 2011
http://halfabite.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
In which some fleeting thoughts (and sometimes baked goods) become pixels on your screen. Tuesday, June 7, 2011. Living in a Star Trek world. I giggle a bit inside whenever I see someone on the subway, street, wherever reading from a Kindle. It reminds me of Star Trek. Except that on the show, I recall that they used to be handed individual tablets with individual messages; sometimes an officer would have a handful of tablets to review. It seems that our smartphones and such are even more advanced!

Half a Bite: November 2011
http://halfabite.blogspot.com/2011_11_01_archive.html
In which some fleeting thoughts (and sometimes baked goods) become pixels on your screen. Monday, November 14, 2011. I've been involved in music ministry at church since I was 13 years old - 17 years. I loved it. It was definitely my calling. The choir was also instrumental (no pun intended) in developing my relationship with Victor. Whenever the parable of the talents came up at mass, I thought to myself, "I'm good. I'm doing my music thing.". All of this is to say, I realized that my 'ministry' now is ...

Half a Bite: October 2012
http://halfabite.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
In which some fleeting thoughts (and sometimes baked goods) become pixels on your screen. Sunday, October 28, 2012. My computer is nearing the end of its life, so I've been going through old photos, backing them up and pruning them in an effort to clear some space on my hard drive. I'm usually the one behind the camera, so there aren't very many photos of myself. The most recent ones I found were from Darian's birthday, back in July. Two months before the BFP. Three months before the miscarriage. This ha...

Half a Bite: May 2011
http://halfabite.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
In which some fleeting thoughts (and sometimes baked goods) become pixels on your screen. Wednesday, May 11, 2011. I am very gratified and humbled by the people who have been offering me their seats on the streetcar and subway during my daily commutes. I mean, it's pretty jerky NOT to do so when a woman looking like this is standing in front of your face:. My first Mother's Day 29 weeks. But I am still very grateful. There is kindness in the world. Thank you, people of Toronto. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Half a Bite: April 2011
http://halfabite.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
In which some fleeting thoughts (and sometimes baked goods) become pixels on your screen. Sunday, April 17, 2011. I had the best conversation with a kid on the subway last Friday. He was about 4 or 5, and I met him with his dad while waiting for my train to go home. I love how kids' thoughts just gush out, no censoring or retooling. He said 'Hi' to several people before I finally responded.). Kid: What's your name? Me: My name is Adriane. What's yours? Kid: My name is Oli. Are you coming on my train?

Half a Bite: Thankful
http://halfabite.blogspot.com/2012/11/thankful.html
In which some fleeting thoughts (and sometimes baked goods) become pixels on your screen. Sunday, November 4, 2012. Because it's November, a lot of my American friends have been talking about things to be thankful for. And difficult as it has been, this experience has given me so much to be thankful for. I am thankful that my body reacted quickly, and dealt with the miscarriage on its own. I am thankful for doctors, nurses, and hospital administrators who work so hard.

Half a Bite: Prayers and angels
http://halfabite.blogspot.com/2012/11/prayers-and-angels.html
In which some fleeting thoughts (and sometimes baked goods) become pixels on your screen. Friday, November 16, 2012. Lately, a lot of my friends and family have been asking for prayer. For big things. Hurricanes, heart surgeries, tragic accidents. For smaller things. Patience to get through a bad day. Guidance on a job situation. I’ve been feeling especially inclined to offer prayers lately. Because I personally know a little special someone up there. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Half a Bite: Family Yearbook
http://halfabite.blogspot.com/2012/11/photo-book.html
In which some fleeting thoughts (and sometimes baked goods) become pixels on your screen. Wednesday, November 14, 2012. I was a yearbook editor for many years in high school and university, so when someone gave me the idea of putting together a "family yearbook", I dove right in. Title and end pages (1 each). Pregnancy photos (4 pages). A friend's wedding (1 page). Our cat (1 page). Darian's baptism (1 page). Other various baby photos, including his monthly "birthday" photos (about half the book - ha!
