Blogue d'un québécois expatrié en Angleterre. Comme toute forme d'autobiographie est constituée d'une large part de fiction, j'ai décidé de nommer le blogue Vraie Fiction.
I took this picture at the National Railway Museum of York. I have no idea if this is a coffee or a tea kettle, but let's say it is a tea kettle for tonight's post. It illustrates my state of mind. I function almost exclusively on tea on a daily basis, it is the fuel that makes me function and survive at my job. And I recently learned that the work offices will move in a few months to the other side of town. Which means to me a longer train commute, which will be one station longer. It looks like nothing, but it also means the addition of a shuttle journey and therefore I might have to take an earlier train. I might also get home a bit later. I cannot complain: I have been having for about seven years the ideal commute. And I have been through far worse. But that means more tea...
Ça fait plus d'un an que je n'ai pas mis les pieds à Montréal et donc à la Panthère Verte. Je ne sais pas pourquoi, mais ça m'a frappé ce soir: ça me manque. Ce n'est pas que la cuisine vegan m'attire particulièrement: ma femme est végétarienne et elle n'a pas aimé plus que ça. Moi, ça a été une révélation. Je crois que c'est parce qu'à chaque fois que j'y ai mangé, je me suis senti rassasié et en même temps j'avais vraiment le sentiment de manger santé. Un repas équilibré, détox, délicieux et qui te bourre juste assez, c'est assez rare. Et je ne pense pas avoir trouvé un autre restaurant vegan ou végé comme celui-là, naturellement cool.
It is Valentine's Day in less than a week time. I don't like Valentine's Day: when you are single it is always kind of sad, when you are in a couple it is stressful. Nevertheless, I thought of a great gift suggestion for loving people that is far more original than chocolate: say it with tea. Well, not to my wife she hates tea, but I would love to receive tea for Valentine's Day. David's Tea has a pretty neat collection for Valentine's Day. Okay, maybe not their tea as they are a bit too sweet, but their accessories are always nice and tea lovers surely cannot get enough of them.
