Amazing collection of stuff piling up over the last couple of months. Spending more time outside with all senses in gear, which (hopefully) means more consistent 'reportage'...here we go:
[Creatively Speaking]
Sauna pants. I honestly don't know what to say about this. it just is.
On another note, saw this in NYC, fun idea for daily scribbling: http://www.simplediary.com

Bespoke Bikes - yes please.

Read 'The Last Crossing' by Guy Vanderhague, took awhile but realized I saw every detail he wrote once I gave it the right time and attention.
Have 'The Amazing Absorbing Boy'on the go by Rabindranath Maharaj. Story of a Trinidadian teen who moves to Regent Park, Toronto.
'Solo' by Rana Dasgupta is up next, hopefully will be warm enough to read in the hammock.
[Sounds]
The latest from James Blake, Beastie Boys, Lykke Li, Esparanza Spalding and Amos Lee all taking turns.
[I spy]
While window shopping in NYC, spotted the work of Sean Slaney. Can't find much else on him, yet.
[Opinions]
Election Day was a dark one this past month - lest we forget here's a site to keep bookmarked: http://100reasons.ca/
[Yum]
Had a nice meal at Domus in Ottawa last week, all locally-derived ingredients and interesting combinations. The mushroom bisque was a standout.
Looking forward to trying Su Shian Yuang, a vegetarian Vietnamese resto here in mtl.
