It is just the beginning of the wedding season and already things are busy. I love work and blogging, but time is always too short. For a while now, everyone in the Fung residence has been busy with work, school and just life. I too have been guilty of getting side tracked with work most times and am reminded by my close friends, it’s not about how much money you make or how much you have in the bank. What it comes down to are the people you love and relationships you cultivate. It is for this reason that this impromptu backyard “bbq” was perfect. The whole family was together and we were not only able to enjoy the beautiful weather, but each others company. These are the moments in life I cherish the most. Happy Tuesday!!

Took this at work today and wished that I could take some time to lounge. Been crazy busy these past couple of weeks, work has been keeping me on my toes so much that I am behind on blogging a couple of weddings.  Excited for tonight as I will be shooting the Red and White again. Hope to blog more soon, Happy Friday!!!!

My goal is to be able to whip up a meal with what I have in the fridge. So, a couple of weeks ago, Lucy and I attended a cooking class at Calphalon Culinary Centre! The three hour class taught us proper knife techniques and other tips of the trade. For instance who would have thought, soaking your hands in water and then rubbing them on a stainless steel surface would be the remedy to get rid of the smell of chopped garlic, onion or even fish off your hands?! I never understood the purpose of stainless steel soap but now I do, ah-may-zing no??

On the menu was:

Goat Cheese & Roast Pepper Triangles
Herb Roasted Potatoes
Grilled Shrimp and Lobster
Fillet Mignion with Red Wine Pan Jus
Chocolate Espresso Mousse with Mixed Berries

Lucy and I loved this awesome experience and would love to do it again. Thanks to our Chef instructors Susie Reading and her amazing assistant Steve Wilson. Here are some pics.

We went to enjoy Winterlude as well as something I have been wanting to do for a while but never made time for which was to skate on the Rideau Canal Skateway and take some night photos in front of the Parliament buildings. Happy to say that we were able to do all those things. Thanks Rob, Trix for being a good sport about the photos!!


thanks for taking this photo for us Trixie.

If you do not know what I am talking about, I took part in the annual Enbridge CN Tower for the United Way this year with a couple of friends/co-workers. We met early in the morning, around 7:00am, to register and get ready, everything was organized and well planned, although we did not start our trek up the CN Tower till about 7:45. The climb was long and hard. There was really nothing that could have prepared me for this…well..maybe going to the gym more and all…but my goal was to reach the top. My strategy was to pace myself and never to stop for a break as it would be hard for me to start back up again. I wound up “summiting” the tower (yes, people use the word “summit” for climbing mountains, the CN Tower felt like a mountain to me) in 26 minutes and 22 seconds, by no means did I break any records but I was quite happy with the time. I don’t think that I would do it again though.

Unfortunately, no cameras were allowed during the climb up so I don’t have any photos of the event at all. I encourage everyone to take part in this event at least once in your life. I leave you with a photo of my souvenir.
