Now I've truly arrived.

Jena, I finally tried one of those poppy-seed buns from the Maple Leaf bakery. You're right - they are amazing! Way to go, Moose Jaw.

A little explanation. . .

No, I have not been posting pictures of my new home. But I have been house shopping in Moose Jaw, and this is one little house that I like quite a bit. The problem is that my husband is currently in Fort Nelson, B.C., and at the moment blogger is the only way I can show him the huge pictures I've taken.

Feel free to offer opinions. . . this house is listed on MLS, so you too can check it out and weigh in.

I meant to post sooner about being back in my hometown. It's been a bit strange so far, mostly because I don't have a husband at the moment, and I feel like a sullen teenager living in a basement bedroom with my stereo and my melancholy to keep me company.

Okay, it's not that bad. . . I do have LOTS of family here, and a friend or two. But I haven't made it to the Maple Leaf bakery for delicious poppy-seed items yet, so I don't think I'm fully living the dream here yet.
