Monday Monday

The weekend has come and gone, and all over the Yukon, people are looking wistfully out their windows and wishing they were free during the day to enjoy the incredible blue skies and bright sun. I had a great time learning the techniques of Indian Head Massage at Alpine Ayurveda in town, and Colin felt like the firefighter testing went well. He passed the six practical stations, and is waiting to hear the results from the written part (which he was well-prepared for).

Thankfully, we avoided the round-up of potential jurors that happend in town on Friday. This article on the CBC website was good notice to stay away for downtown Whitehorse, or risk jury duty!

We are really looking forward to the Mt Lorne Bluegrass Brunch that is happening this coming Sunday at the community centre. After coming up with the idea from one of our favourite Toronto events, Colin and I are helping Agnes with the food prep. Here is the menu:

- hash browns

- southern-style scrambled eggs

- baked beans with salsa

- goat cheese biscuits and toast

- breakfast sausages

- potato gratin

- fruit salad

- cinnamon buns

- cranberry white chocolate muffins

- tomato mozzarella salad

- Bean North's Mt Lorne roast coffee

We're hoping that it's lots of fun and has the same great atmosphere that we loved at the Dakota:

Bye for now,
Love Lauren
