Yeah, especially since our current landlord wanted to know if we'd be staying for another year the following Tuesday. But ultimately, I'm appreciative to the inspector for saving us a lot of misery.
I had flashes of various "Betrayal at the House on the Hill" scenarios playing through my mind.
The Gas Leak is actually a portal to hell.
That retention wall will collapse and send your house into the street.
The guest bedrooms on the ground floor will have that lonely joist collapse, sending my parents to an early grave.
That crawl space under said guest bedrooms IS where the previous owner "hid the bodies," and they're out for revenge.
A heavy rain with that extreme lack of functional gutters or drainage to the street will result in a sinkhole swallowing up the whole damn place, probably to another dimension.
The fact that a "Death: for all the world to see" album was sitting in the living room was neither a sign that hipsters currently lived there nor that it was carefully staged after reading my internet history, but in fact a winking warning that this was a Truman Horror Show style death house.

I'm perhaps underselling the Sopa de Mani, imagine something between a fresh chicken soup with mussuman curry. Carrots, peas, potatoes, yellow chili paste, peanuts boiled and ground into a paste, and chicken. We made a vegan one with tofu for a friend and it was also quite good. This was also like "date #3" food where we made it at my place and had white wine with it.
The Lasagna is a semi-homemade sauce (take canned tomato paste, sauce, and either diced or crushed tomatoes, some spices, NO SUGAR), noodles, and no fluffy cheese. Usually it's 2:1 Mozzarella to Extra Sharp Cheddar, which means 16 and 8 oz respectively for a single pan. It's my mom's recipe and about the only thing I knew how to make 3 years ago. Always a hit at potlucks.
Okay, I see how it is.Black Barney wrote: I'm around Montreal except between the 4th and 17th.
We'll see. We mostly want to just enjoy the moments. We got a polaroid-but-not-polaroid style camera recently to occasionally take memorable shots with. I think one each day and/or in each city we go to would be cool. I'm not big on overly sharing stuff like that on FB unless the kid says something I find particularly amusing.hope you post lots of updates to this thread on your trip. Can't wait to hear about it.

Santouka - been to one around here (in the Mitsuwa food court in... Schaumburg?). Wife wanted to see if it was the same up in Toronto, and it essentially was, although the Toronto one didn't have Natto. This place was close to a mall and on Dundas.

That's like pissing on a beaver. You should be ashamed of yourselves.
I'm in Niagara right now. I'm stopping at the local Timmies two or three times a day so that I can honor my Canadian heritage.

if the Oscars could make a category for most popular coffee, it would do well. It's coffee for the masses and we love it.
really glad you did your trip Jexik!
